Continuous Rent Increase Until 2018 Shouldn’t Discourage Home Buyers, Says Rick Otton
(PRWEB) November 25, 2013 -- “There are many ways on how Britons can escape a life of paying dead rent to their landlords, but it will only happen if they open their minds to creative solutions,” said Rick Otton, the man who introduced creative real estate strategies in the U.K.
A new study from Knight Frank revealed that residential rents for U.K. real estate will continue to rise up to 16 percent by 2018, (Property Wire reported on 22 November 2013).
Currently, rental rates for London property is 200 percent higher than the national average, while those in South East and East Anglia averaged £1,145 and £889, respectively, every month, according to another report from Move With US.
“The rate increase around the country is driving prices of property to rent up to a point where it’s practically like taking a new mortgage for a house, the only difference is that the money you’re paying every month is going into another guy’s pocket, rather than going towards your future home,” commented Mr. Otton in a recent interview for his Power Property Profits Pack.
“It will also make the task of saving up for a deposit even harder for many aspiring home buyers as more of their hard-earned money will have to go to pay the rent,” Mr. Otton added.
As a solution to the rental woes of many Britons, Mr. Otton included some strategies in his Power Property Profits Pack that can help buyers create convenient payment terms with property for sale.
“The rent-to-buy strategy solves both of the major hurdles in buying houses: the deposit and the loan,” said Mr. Otton.
“It’s become popular with a lot of people because it lets you rent something and have the ability to buy it at the end of a contract, rather than paying dead rent, and it doesn’t require a lot of cash for buyers to get in this kind of agreement which means that they don’t have to wait until they’ve saved up enough money just to become home owners,” he explained further.
