BTL still a good investment?

Should I, or shouldn't I?

The buy to let investment question is one that many have pontificated on and many reject, but as a sector it continues to grow.

Recent figures from the Communities and Local Government Department show a 55 per cent increase in the number of people renting privately-owned accommodation during last six years.

The private rental sector has seen a growth from 2.15 million to 3.35 million during this period.

If you are one of those investors still pontificating on whether the BTL sector is for you read this analysis in the Independent. However be warned there is a lot of input from mortgage brokers and let's just put it like this they do have a slight self-interest in firing the market back up.
