UK PROPERTY

In the last few years, the property markets in the UK changed significantly where the buy-to-let sector was affected by the political situations, change in legal aspects and economic uncertainties created by Brexit. New changes in the Tenant Fees Act 2019 where the landlords could not charge more than what has been determined by the law and the changes in the Section 24 tax related to the landlord’s mortgage tax and UK property.

As well as, the change in the Prudential Regulation Authority or PRA created stricter lending criteria for the landlord mortgages. Currently, in the UK the best locations for investment are found in the North of England and Midlands, and in regions - Liverpool and Manchester. 

Property investment, in the English common law, is any subsection of land that has been legally defined whose developments come from human efforts. 

This includes buildings, machinery, wells, dams, ponds, mines, canals and roads amongst other things. In such countries with personal ownership of real property, it is the civil law that protects the status of real property within the real-estate markets and the estate agents handle the buying and selling.
