    Why take on all the hassle of being a landlord? If you want a geared punt on growth, buy (say) the capital shares of "split" investment trusts, holding as much as possible within ISAs or SIPPS. Or IT subscription shares or warrants. Or buy VCTs: lots of risk but you get valuable income tax advantages. Set them off with the conservative punt of a big holding in Premium Bonds - you might win a million.
    Free the dunston one next time too.
