(PRWEB) January 22, 2005 -- Well here at Houses for sale guide we strive to do our "Best". You might find the following of some interest.

Buy-to-let is just that: buying property to rent out to tenants. This is effectively commercial investment in property and, as such, buy-to-let mortgages are not regulated by the FSA so you are strongly recommended to take legal advice before venturing into this field -- after all, while this method of investment has brought wealth to many in recent years, property is not a guaranteed investment and you would be wise to weigh up all the risks.

The buy-to-let market continues to be a popular form of investment. The Council of Mortgage Lenders (CML) said that there were an estimated 275,500 buy-to-let mortgages in 2002. According to the CML, gross buy-to-let lending increased from 6.6 billion in 2001 to 12.2 billion in 2002, an 85% increase.

Key factors behind the 'buy-to-let boom have been a buoyant property market, low interest rates and poor comparative performance by the stock market. There has been much speculation that the buy-to-let market has reached its peak performance. However, with evidence of waning interesting among first time buyers, many commentators believe that this brings good news for landlords -- those 'deferring first time buyers still need to live somewhere until they do take the plunge, and that usually means renting.

The CML are upbeat about the future of the buy-to-let market. CML Director General Michael Coogan said:

"Buy-to-let lending has often been portrayed as more risky and prone to market shocks than mainstream lending. But our figures show the opposite - lenders are maintaining conservative lending strategies and experiencing very low default rates.

Given the lacklustre performance of the stock market and of traditional investment returns, more people are widening their portfolios to include property. Provided they are realistic about rental income and expect to hold on to property as a long-term investment, this continues to look like a reasonable strategy."

Please note: property prices can fall as well as rise and we strongly recommend that you take qualified independent advice before going down this route.
