 Significant changes to the property market are under way

Driven by both market forces and legislative amendments

How will these influences affect buy-to-let property investments?

 The average house sale price has dropped by about 1% in 2017

The feeling among many property commentators is that it will fall

even more and that a major price correction is on the horizon

 As well as sale prices, rental prices have just dropped for the first
time in 7 years

The fall in sale and rental prices is primarily affecting London.

 It is expected that London, currently over-priced, will be
affected more than other UK regions

This suggests that buy-to-let investors and indeed any property

investor should be looking to invest outside of the capital.

 WHAT?!?

Invest outside of
London?

Sterling Woodrow, New North House, Ongar Road, Brentwood, CM15 9BB | + 44 (0) 1708 922 222
 Yes!

In the current
climate it makes
sense to invest
outside of London!

 Periods of change and readjustment naturally create risks and
opportunities for investors

It is vitally important to do your research, get good advice and

understand the market

Currently better deals and opportunities exist outside of London!

 It is also worth noting that even with a market slowdown and a major
price adjustment property will continue to remain unaffordable for
many people for the foreseeable future.

In other words;

Demand for rental properties will continue to increase as

House prices remain relatively high and wages stagnate.

 A recent survey by Knight Frank estimates that by 2021 as many as
one-in-four Britons will be renting!

Therefore with the correct advice and strategy buy-to-let will

continue to be a good investment now and into the future.
