Parts Of Thames Gateway Are Swimming in Buy to Lets
Interesting to see on BBC's "Working Lunch" today that at least one part of the Thames Gateway is full of buy to letters.
I predicted this about 9 months ago when I wrote up on the area around Ebbsfleet for a property website.
Back then a few agents had told me that the only people buying in the area were buy to let investors.
Now Ebbsfleet is a great station with great connections but I see lots of new properties and not much in the way of jobs locally yet.
And if a lot of the new build is being gobbled up by investors and then let out, I still think this is one area to avoid - for now at least.
