BBC covers the BTL
BBC: Tax call for buy-to-let homes
'Disastrous' Around 175,000 of the 1.3m homes sold with mortgages in 2006 went to buy-to-let landlords. Tax changes to discourage people buying property to let it out have been called for by a housing body. "We've got many examples now in many cities where properties are being secured on buy-to-let mortgages but are being kept empty." There is plenty of BTL coverage by BBC this weekend, I am posting more links in the comments

In what sense is the housing problem a "market" problem? Hear the opinion of the head of OFT... he is an economist not a BTL punk!
