20% of UK landlords want more than one buy-to-let property

Houseladder.co.uk: One in five landowners seek multiple properties

20% of UK landlords want to own more than one buy-to-let property according to Landlord Mortgages. The majority, however, see one investment property as sufficient to provide a nest egg for retirement. The UK buy-to-let market is second only to Poland in terms of profitability.

What do Houseladder.co.uk do? Sell paid-for advertising to sell people's houses?

Particularly incisive and independent research here Caroline - thanks for posting it.

I asked my barber if he thought of reaching a wider market online, or even offering his services over the web - you know "left a bit, right a bit .... and CUT" but he ridiculed the idea.

He said that at the current rate of hair growth, with hair coming out of people's arms and even backs - he is also looking to offer multiple-area trimming services. Bit off on top, bit off down below etc. he'd have enough trouble keeping up.

Well, good to see landlords will be mopping up supply.
I guess the question is whether this is in fact true.
The next question is whether they will buy in a falling market.
