Landlords in England and Wales made average returns of
9.6% on buy-to-let properties in the year to the end of March, and 16.5% if
they bought in London – better than almost any other major class of investment.
But returns in some parts of the country were weaker, with the average property
investor making a gain of 2.6% in the north-east, and 4.5% in Yorkshire and
Humberside, according to the Property Partner Residential Market Index (PPRMI).
Over the same period, the FTSE 100 index of shares fell by 3.9%, while deposits
in even the best cash ISAs have earned only 1.4%. Read more on the Guardian
