The Times Seeks Landlord Views on Buy-to-Let Mortgages

A journalist from The Times is preparing a feature to mark the 30th anniversary of the introduction of the buy-to-let mortgage. The journalist is looking to speak with landlords who have benefited from buy-to-let mortgages, including those who have built property portfolios or purchased individual properties using this type of finance.

The focus of the article will be on how buy-to-let mortgages have changed the UK property market over the past three decades. The Times is seeking first-hand accounts from landlords about their experiences with buy-to-let mortgages.

This call for landlord input may be of interest to letting agents and inventory clerks who work closely with landlords and are involved in the management of buy-to-let properties. The feature aims to provide insight into the impact of buy-to-let finance on the property sector.
