UK rental yields far to low to justify valuations

ArabianMoney: European and UK housing rental yields absurdly low

Who would be a landlord in the UK or continental Europe? Rental yields are absurdly low and not enough to cover long-term maintenance and property taxes, let alone a mortgage.

The thing is people always tend to extrapolate.

If the flat was worth $110000 in 1993 and is worth $600000 in 2010 Basic (and that is the key word) maths shows it will be worth
over $3 million in 2027. We will completely ignore the fact that it might have been worth $150000 in 1989.
