London landlord confidence dips

22nd September 2017

The latest landlord sentiment research from Foundation Home Loans has found over two-thirds of landlords think landlord confidence has fallen, with a fifth noticing increased competition in the buy-to-let market as a result of political uncertainty. A quarter of landlords operating in central and outer London have raised rental prices as a result of the lingering political jitters across the UK over the past year – below the average of 30% across the UK. Meanwhile, 45% of landlords in central London had reviewed the size of their portfolios, FHL said, and 47% had seen a drop in transactions.
