Buy to let: the top 10 tips for housing investors
Article Abstract:
There are a number of factors that should be born in mind by would-be investors in residential real estate in the United Kingdom. Investors should seek advice from letting agents, and they should bear in mind costs and other factors that affect net yields. They should ignore their personal tastes, and not spend too much on fittings and decoratings, though these should be of a good quality. They should bear in mind the risks involved, such as the need to repay mortgage debt even when there are no tenants.
