Buy-to-Let Returns Hit 10-Year High – Why Now Is the Time to Invest with Braxton

The UK’s buy-to-let market is enjoying a strong resurgence, with average rental yields reaching 6.3% – the highest in a decade. With tenant demand at record levels and landlords reporting improved returns, now is an ideal time to consider expanding your property portfolio.

At Braxton, we’ve been helping landlords in Maidenhead and the surrounding areas for nearly 150 years. Our success has always been built on one simple principle: when our clients succeed, we succeed.

Why Invest Now?

- Stronger Yields: Rental returns are at their most attractive in years, offering excellent income potential.

- High Tenant Demand: Over 80% of landlords report strong or very strong demand for rental properties.

- Portfolio Growth: Many landlords are actively acquiring new properties, using buy-to-let mortgages or releasing equity from existing assets.

 

Understanding the Renters Rights Bill

The Renters Rights Bill, currently progressing through Parliament, is set to bring significant changes to the private rental sector. These include:

- The abolition of Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions.

- All tenancies becoming periodic by default, removing fixed-term contracts.

- Stricter rules on rent increases and enhanced protections for tenants.

 While these reforms are designed to improve standards and stability for renters, they also place greater responsibility on landlords to remain compliant and well-informed.

 

That’s where Braxton comes in.
