Lots of people are still saying that there is an abundance of flats for rent in Manchester. This is simply not true. In fact the opposite is completely true.
Today, with a shortage of buy to let property buyers there are fewer properties than ever before. We still see some prospective tenants who offer very low against the asking price - they often find that they lose out on the properties that they wanted and have to settle for an alternative. The upside is that now is actually a good time to buy an investment property. Purchase prices are low and rental demand is high.
