The surge in interest in buy-to-let comes as average rents in the private sector in England and Wales hit a high of £741 per month, according to LSL Property Services, which owns lettings and estate agency chains including Reeds Rains and Your Move.
This is confirmed by UK Property Investments (UKPI) who specialize in assisting clients, particularly those based overseas, to source and invest in high quality UK property.
Richard Gordon founder of UKPI said: “We have seen a sharp increase in both enquiries and sales over the second half of the year. Many of those enquiries are coming from people who see the UK as a safe haven, amid all the international financial uncertainty. We have made sales to clients mainly in the UAE and the Far East including Singapore and Malaysia.

UKPI specialize in sourcing high quality investments for clients, making investing in UK property easy. For example, they are currently marketing a couple of schemes which are ’ready-made’
