General advice on buy-to-let - 2006/07/06 09:28
Hi
I am interested in going into buy-to-let as a financial investment, and am trying to get some overall idea of how to go about it, by asking as many people as possible.
I have heard that it is a good idea to buy properties in what is generally considered to be a "good area", and to steer well clear of the sorts of area where people might have some sort of trepidation about living.
Also, I hear that it is important to renovate and decorate the property to a reasonable standard, but without overdoing it, ie: not overspending, not doing the property up to one's own taste.
The areas of interest to me are London and Leeds, both areas where there is a high demand for property to let.
I'm looking forward to learning something on this forum.
