Key Takeaways
  • Holding Properties for Higher Yields:
  • With rising rental prices and increased entry costs, holding on to properties could prove advantageous for investors looking to capitalise on high rental yields.
  • Rising Demand for Rental Properties:
  • Delayed homeownership among first-time buyers is likely to drive demand for rental properties, making this a promising area for buy-to-let investors.
  • EPC Compliance and Government Funding:
  • Changes to EPC requirements could impact landlords, but government grants are available to help offset some of the upgrade costs needed to meet new standards.
