New survey suggests landlords more confident
A new survey revealed that landlords are positive about their outlook for the buy-to-let sector. 67% of respondents said they were positive about the future of buy-to-let. This compares to 64% twelve months ago.
Other major highlights of the survey were:
- 43% of landlords were positive about rental demand being better than it was six months ago – this compares to 35% last year.
- 33% of landlords said they were looking to buy more investment properties in the next 12 months, up from 28% last year. Two major issues were noted as standing in the way of landlords being able to achieve this objective; a lack of finance and the high deposit requirements associated with buy to let mortgage products.
- One in five respondents said they would consider fixing their buy-to-let mortgage to protect them against future interest rises.
- Four in five landlords make adequate provisions for maintenance of their investment properties from rent receipts.
