Default Buy to lets

In article . com,

Nobody seems to have mentioned the ethics of BTL - the fact is that
it's a low form of capitalistic parasitism - hoping to earn money
merely by owning something that other people need. Providing a service
which nobody wants. Nobody loves a landlord, and BTL is a big factor
in cranking up house prices. Be warned - the bubble may burst at any
time and everybody will have a good laugh at the landlords in
difficulties.


|Yep.. and the tenants will do what?..

Different if you were building new - that could be a useful thing to
do.

'Fraid you don't understand the BTL market. The ones we have are used by
people visiting the area for several years, and more often than not they
have their property rented out elsewhere.

Now what's wrong with that?..
