In the recent issue of our industry Capital & Interests article, Director Harry Arnold , uncovers the decline of Dinner Party Buy-to-Let investments, a trend driven by increasing regulations, reduced tax relief, rising interest rates, and an increasingly complex mortgage landscape.
Harry says: The Buy-To-Let mortgage market is now littered with bizarre products and complex criteria - the "2.59% 2-year fix with the 9% Bank fee". Lenders offer a dizzying kaleidoscope of different products, each with varying rates, fees, and maximum loan amounts, depending on the type of landlord and ownership structure. This labyrinth is a headache for regulated advisors and a minefield for enthusiastic amateurs, where a simple misstep could lead to huge financial errors."
We delve into the significant changes occurring in the Buy-to-Let market, how increasing regulations and tax changes are reshaping the property investment landscape and what this means for the future of the UK housing market.
