The Number of Buy-to-Let Investors Reaches the Milestone of 2.5M in Current Tax Year

Last year or two have been full of ups and downs for property investment market in UK. Most of the investors hesitated from buying a house at property auctions in UK. The whole credit goes to Brexit and other political and financial decisions taken by the government of UK on domestic as well as international level. For example:

·         3% additional stamp duty on purchasing a second house.

·         New Mortgage/Lending Rules

·         The value of pound falling to record low of 31 years.

·         The resignation of David Cameron, the then British Prime Minister.
