Over Half of Landlords Remain Confident in Buy-to-Let
More than half of landlords (50.6%) continue to believe that residential property is a good long-term investment, according to a recent survey. The findings come despite increased regulation in the sector.
The survey, commissioned by lettings agency Benham and Reeves, focused on landlords in England. It aimed to assess their confidence in the future of the private rental sector, their investment plans for the next 12 months, expectations regarding profitability, barriers to further investment, and factors that might encourage portfolio expansion.
The results indicate ongoing confidence among landlords, which is relevant for letting agents and inventory clerks monitoring trends in the buy-to-let market.
