I purchased in London 2 decades ago so the outlook seems ok to me. My combined tenants (4)income of £110k+ could not purchase the house even with £200k deposit. My point: as rental stock is reduced, these types of tenants will need to move outside the m25 and commute longer to get to work.
That’s what I thought, it means higher rent, if you can do it, then the yield will have to just go up!
"to be fearful when others are greedy and to be greedy only when others are fearful"
Average is wrong. London is too big to average. East is vastly different to West. On this side of road it's 300k average, on the other side 1 million. That's london.
Here’s the dilemma… If you sell up, that’s 24% capital gains tax. How long before you recoup that elsewhere?
Exactly !
What if that tax today is cheaper than what it will be in the future?
15:40 The return on equity story makes sense
Ranjan speaks so much sense 👊
Very informative,and.enlightening.
London's high value properties (>£1m) are included in your analysis which significantly skews your conclusions.
All our family have sold up in london for the home counties as now to costly.
In London they have room size accommodation thing which I wasn't aware off. In one std 3bed london property I am only allow to keep 2 adults and one child under 10.
Everywhere in England has room size criteria.
What’a a typical buy to let property in London? There are plenty 2/3 bed apartments/ houses around 500k in zones 4/5/6.
Zones 4 isnt London
But most of reasons also applies to the whole country, not only London, is it?
Yield is lower in London so more risky I suppose?
Its too late to complete before the October budget anyway?
Couple of things: Dagenham £285k rental £2.2k SDLT: 12-15k
What’s the issue
Leyton: £550k rental: £3.1k
Can’t remember SDLT
Walthamabbey: £385k rental £2k SDLT can’t remember
Stratford: £800k rental £4.7k SDLT can’t remember
Canary wharf: £800k rental £3k SDLT: £70k roughly
Can you see the problem which I am facing: don’t go to Canary Wharf!
I bought Stratford 3 bed, but if I wanted to sell it would only attract £380 - £400k
Where in Dagenham is the house price this and you get rent of 2k? What's post code are you looking at ?
Difficult to divest with many constraints e.g. cladding concern
Have 3 buy to let stick to one bed flat with £100,000 mortgage.
That's why my heart sunk on the say Labour government got in 😢
Private landlords disappear, rental demand and price goes sky high
Successive governments have targeted buy to let landlords, when many landlords get out of the market, there will be chaos and another government will bring in incentives.
Things change and people with properties to let out have to review their position constantly and decide what to do.
BH, not sure that there would be chaos, but, regardless, I struggle to think why any government would incentivise landlords. Why? There are no nett votes in it! Tenants will always outweigh landlords.
Corporations will take their place
The large corporations will snap up property and there will be no going back.
@@johnporcella2375they eventually will incentivise landlords because the country needs rental accommodation
Good analogy of historic performanc Prof
I’m an accidental landlord who used to live in the property. While most of the value increased while I lived there, the market is stagnant. This means that every year, I lose more in capital gains liability. 😢
Move back,
very helpful information as always. thank you
can you list out the 10 reasons ?
Good news
Just in London?
What about other parts of the country? Should I keep out of BTL or try my luck?
Hod on . Video on that coming shortly
@@ranjanbhattacharya-succeed7617 please
Buy in Holyhead, where property price is very low so the yield is rocket high!!! And there is no 3% surcharge and there are plenty choices (because virtually no buyers).
So buy to let at Holyhead then
Yeh Probably one of the remotest places in the UK. Not many people want to live in Holyhead unless your'e Welsh.
The UK is beyond stagnation
This is what i have been telling everyone.
Very depressing… no solutions
London capitals appreciation high
@@sirrodneyffing1évidence ?
Stock market better
True
I am thinking to sell mine
I want to sell my flat which I bought for buy to let.
I can help
😂😊
Spot on
No worth it if you are higher tax payer. Time and money waste. Buy to let really deal not only London.
We get decent yields outside London but capital growth are not increase.
Non-London capital growth has lagged behind London historically, but my personal view is that it will catch up in the long term, in % terms.
Ha ha you wasn't saying this last year you was telling everyone prop was the best thing in on the planet 😂😂 next you will be changing your name to ginger
He can change his opinion, in fact by doing so, he reflects what’s happening in the market.
@@tundeuk yes I was telling him about that was coming he didn't lis listen and now he's changed his mind 😂
