• Information on changes within the current economic environment that affect the lettings market
• Understanding how you can identify and manage risk whilst maximising the return on your investment
What you will get out of this presentation
The Changing Environment
• Buy-to-Let market; increasing demand on limited funding
• First time buyer mortgage applications; deposit constraints
• Demand for rental properties increased; especially in London and the South East
• Cuts from government to overall spending including welfare and benefits; affects entire PRS
• Sustained unemployment figures and potential for double dip
What this means for landlords: Threats
• Availability of finance and buy-to-let products
• Increased cost of borrowing; product types, interest rates and fees
• Value of assets (re-financing); lack of flexibility and detailed mortgage application assessment
• Length of term / tenure of investment; short term wins or long term gains
• Changing tenant profile; increased arrears and voids risks?
Threats cont’d...• Local Housing Allowance (LHA) rates capped
• Single room rate; extension to the under 35s for room rate
e.g.: claimant aged 33 living in central London currently entitled to £250 per week this will reduce to £137.50
This will mean shared accommodation, will HMO’s (Homes of Multiple Occupation) work for you?
• New entrants to the market; vendors, funds and institutional investors
£250 per week One bedroom property
£290 per week Two bedroom property
£340 per week Three bedroom property
£400 per week Four bedroom property
What this means for landlords: Opportunities
• Significant growth in the residential lettings market
• Increased viability of leasing schemes; 50th vs. 30th percentile
• Potential change in legislation; ability for councils to discharge statutory duty in to the private rented sector
• Increased demand on the private rented sector by the public sector
• Increasing sources of private funds for developments; we have seen stamp duty and Real Estate Investment Trust changes (reduction in costs)
• Changes in the market place; from owner / occupier to long term renting
• More stock available for lettings?
