Suggest BTL for 100k

MSforums

100K cash to spend. No mortgage.
Prefer minimum 2 beds (3 is ideal).
In a decent area free from crime and drugs.
Decent tenants.
Property must appreciate in value over time due to above.
Which part of the country should I looking?
Any suggestions?

Don't buy a first btl miles away from where you live. 
Also, how do you expect 100k to give you great tenants in crime free area with guaranteed capital growth?
Someone would have bought that magical place by now if it existed. 


What are you actually trying to do at the moment?  Buy a btl? Move to Cambridge? Move to Edinburgh?

Don't buy a btl hours away from where you live

Sorry my crystal ball is on the blink.

if you use google you will find many adverts from companies who aim to find properties for those unable to do their own research

naturally said companies will expect to be paid (handsomely) for such research

Sounds like a terrible idea. Consider balanced global investments instead - far more likely to get a better return in the long run. Yes there are risks (drop in the stock market) but provided you don't sell in those dips, you should hopefully rebound. On the other hand... become a Landlord and run the risk of the property dropping in value, the risk of periods of no rent payment (either problem tenants or periods between tenancy's with no tenants in!), expensive costs to maintain it (including professionals such as gas experts) and the real risk of the property getting trashed by problem tenants, costing you £1000's.

Any specific reason as to why BTL?

I would be going with S&S ISA's / investing instead?

Cloud cuckoo land perhaps?  It's obvious from your other posts you're a troll, and you have been reported.

Do your own research and as with any business, calculate your overheads and profit margins, and tell us if it's worth it

£100k isn't enough you need to save for at least another 30 years.
