A shortage of rental properties will only hit tenants badly[Deleted User] said:
Potential and existing landlords. Keep making the rules more and more in the tenant's favour, increase taxes on BTL and 2nd homes etc. At the moment it looks like a good investment and income stream, so the goal is to make it look unattractive.jimbog said:
Who are we pressurising? And how do we 'keep the pressure up'?[Deleted User] said:
The main problem is buy to let. As investments and pensions do poorly people look to becoming a landlord for income. We must keep the pressure up to make it less attractive.brett19852010 said:In my area a 40% crash is required to hit 2016 prices and a 20% crash to roll back to 2020 figures.
With the supply and demand aspect it will be interesting to see what happens to this market. I dont expect prices to increase but I suspect that there will remain some demand for the very few properties available.Gather ye rosebuds while ye may0
