Are you considering starting a property portfolio in 2023? Perhaps you’re already a portfolio landlord looking for investment tips? Join us on Thursday 22nd June at 11am to hear from the Centrick team and guest speakers at our landlord webinar! We'll be discussing whether being a buy-to-let investor is still worth it in 2023, covering the state of the current investment market, and how you can make the best investment choices to maximise your portfolio success. With more incentives for tenants to purchase their first home, such as zero deposit mortgages, shared ownership and the First Homes scheme, it’s true that the buy-to-let landscape has changed. However, a chronic undersupply of property and rising property prices have led to increased demand across the private rental sector. This situation has left many budding and existing investors wondering whether buy-to-let investment is even worth their while. This is precisely what we’ll be answering in our seminar. The landlord webinar will be hosted by Andy Butts (Centrick’s Group Sales and Lettings Director), Stuart Macdiarmid (Centric’sk Area Sales Director) and Marc Dueck (ME Financial Services). With valued voices from sales, lettings and financial services, the webinar is sure to provide viewers with a comprehensive overview of the investment market. We’ll be covering a range of topics suitable for investors at any stage, including:

UK Property Investment Market Update

Firstly, we'll discuss the current status quo of the UK property market and the challenges faced by investors in 2023. With prices rising and the introduction of new rental reforms, investors ought to be aware of the developing dynamic of the buy-to-let sector and what this means for their portfolio.

What tenants really want (is it really a rooftop cinema?)

Next, we'll host an exploration of what your tenants want and expect from their accommodation. Do they desire premium amenities like cinemas and pools? Do they want bills-included options? Or do they simply want tenancy flexibility?

Buy-to-let mortgages - the fit, the facts and the fiction

With mortgage rates and interest rates on the rise, and the media creating panic around the buy-to-let market, it’s hard to determine what is fact and fiction when it comes to investment. ME Financial’s Mark Dueck will cover the reality of the buy-to-let mortgage market and dispel the myths around obtaining a mortgage in 2023.
