Confidence high in buy-to-let market

Confidence high in buy-to-let market
Nine out of ten UK investors in the buy-to-let market are planning to expand their property portfolio in the next six to eight months, a new survey reveals.

The research by Mortgage Express highlights the high investor confidence in the long-term future of the buy-to-let market.

Furthermore, eight out of ten reported a rise in tenant demand, and three-quarters of investors said they had not had any void rental periods on their buy-to-let properties.

Andrew Moss, product development manager at Mortgage Express, said: "It's encouraging to note that our borrowers believe that demand for rental properties remains strong.

"This point is reflected in our own economic analysis which shows increased demand for buy-to-let loans in general," he added.

The recent upturn in the property market has been attributed to the August interest rate cut, as well as the forthcoming A-day.
