The rapid growth of buy-to-let has seen the number of
private landlords reach almost two million, according to a new report. Paragon,
a specialist landlord lender, has drawn together statistics from a number of
sources highlighting the dramatic growth in buy-to-let – and the extent to
which it is transforming home ownership in Britain. Here are some of the
figures:
– From landlords numbering in tens of thousands 20 years
ago, today almost two million private landlords own 4.9 million properties
– The number of buy-to-let properties is expected to grow
by a further million over the next five years
– The current value of buy-to-let properties is estimated
at £989bn
