0121 550 4151A new survey pours cold water on claims that landlords are abandoning the private rental sector en masse.
The recently published TDS Charitable Foundation survey* contradicts claims of a landlord exodus.
It found that in the past year, 63% of landlords operated business as usual.
Meanwhile, 23% of landlords expanded their portfolio (this was up from 19% the previous year).
Landlords invested further in the rental sector because they:
• Wanted to supplement their income.
• Prefer property to other types of investments.
• Found local market conditions favourable.
• Were keen to bolster their pension.
Landlords who expanded their portfolios purchased an average of 2.5 properties each.
