Hundreds of people have lost confidence in insurance company pension products, and have turned to property to fund their retirement. Their decisions have also been based on personal experience of growing house prices, and confidence in the housing market generally.
The biggest factor is that instead of having an investment of say £20,000 working for you in a pension, through buy-to-let property you can take advantage of the leverage value of the mortgage to take your investment to say £100,000. This means that 10% growth gives you £10,000 instead of £2,000, with your tenant paying the cost of the mortgage for you!
