Sanity has been restored, justice has been served!

Times: Banks pull the plug on buy-to-let landlords

"The era of the amateur landlord has all but ended, with banks effectively refusing to lend to new entrants to the buy-to-let market. Thousands of existing landlords also face huge increases in the cost of remortgaging, experts said yesterday. First-time landlords, including parents eager to buy a house for their student children, will now find it almost impossible to enter the housing market"... priceless!

"and thousands of existing landlords coming to the end of fixed-rate deals will find it very hard and very expensive to switch mortgage providers if they have not built up at least 75 per cent equity in their buy-to-let property"

i.e. - virtually none of them.
