The reasons are many and include:
Rental property as an alternative to shares
In an era where interest rates are low and the stock market is volatile, many people see rental property as a direct investment that provides the returns they want. Property in Birmingham is relatively affordable, compared to London, and offers an excellent ROI over the long term.
Rental property as an alternative to speculative non-income-producing commodities
Investing in speculative non-income-producing commodities can offer good returns but also brings high levels of risk. On the other hand, rental property in an area of high demand, such as Birmingham, provides a regular income, appealing to investors who prefer a safe and steady approach.
