Has Buy-To-Let brightened up?

The buy-to-let market has continued to develop throughout 2011 with a number of interesting trends, according to NLA Mortgages:
- Number of buy-to-let products have increased
- Average loan size continues to rise
- Tracker products are favoured
- Average rates have dropped
- Highest rental yields are for students and terraced houses
Average rates have fallen during the second quarter of this year, which reflects the opinion in the City that any rise in the Bank of England Base Rate is not likely to happen until later this year, at the earliest.
Rental demands remain high in many parts of the country, which has increased rental income helping to deliver improved rental yields for landlords. The highest rental yields have been for students and terraced housing.
An increase in rents has enabled landlords to obtain higher loan-to-value (LTV) mortgages and finance for Houses in Multiple Occupation (HMOs).
As UK Plc remains fragile, the buy-to-let mortgage market has stabilised and there are some great deals currently available.

There is a change in the threshold limit for Assured Shorthold Tenancy (AST) rents commencing on 1st October 2010. Previously, legislation associated with the Housing Act 1998 stated that all tenancies with an annual rent of over £25,000 could not be AST’s.
