Originally posted by sasguruWho says it's a renter's market? It's certainly not anywhere within walking distance to the City. I noticed a distinct spike in enquiries after the bombs last year, from foreign City workers who did't want to use the tube. Maybe that's why.Comment

Originally posted by FungusQuite. I've read that we need to build 50K new houses a year just to keep up with the demand due to immigration.
PS Actually I'm beginning to think it's a good idea to do short-term lets - its much more lucrative if you can keep the occupancy going.Last edited by sasguru; 30 March 2006, 17:51.Hard Brexit now!

Renters market my @rse
I have a little sh1tpit in Bethnal Green, and I am inundated by calls from agents asking me if I want to let it out.
With asking price for a 1 bed in the area circa 190K, its not hard to see why.
Inside zone 2 it will always be a letters market, you can let any POS becuase of the demandThere are no evil thoughts except one: the refusal to thinkComment

It might be buoyant in the center but 20 miles out it is not.
I went for a job three weeks ago the other side of London to where I live.
I got a list from Rightmove of available property. I asked in the agencies what the market was like and the answer was "manic".
Four weeks on and only one of the 8 flats available has been let and there are no new ones. If that's manic I'd like to know what adjective they use when it really is busy. (yes I understand that they need to talk the market up but exaggerating greatly can't be helpful, especially when I'm likely to find out)
