Putting your money into a residential property in the UK is seen as a good move by those with an eye on the long term gain. It may not be the rock and roll of investment that it once was but there are many who consider that a blessing.
Many are pointing to low interest rates couples with high rental demand as factors that should influence landlords to expand their portfolio or Britons with money to enter into the sector for the first time. The other options such as putting money into stocks or storing it in saving accounts have their own unique problems. Stocks are seen as unstable and saving accounts bear little return.
So property comes to the fore. Of course that is if you actually have money to invest. Despite the freeing up of the mortgage loan market over the last few months things are still a bit tight and those looking to borrow to invest may have a hard time getting something that suits them.
But those who are cashed up are in a strong position and many can see the sense in property. It may not be rock and roll but it is solid and over time your money will grow.
