@chrisexleymoneygeek: People will disgree. They’ll say these homes should be saved for first time buyers. But the result of these punitive Stamp Duty rates is that young people are deprived of the opportunity that those before them enjoyed. And the Buy to Lets get mopped up by the big boys with smart accountants - like Lloyds Bank who’s private rental empire is now worth £2Bn. There are lots of young, responsible millenials who’s skillset is perfectly suited to this who just want to leverage their skills outside of work.

They keep moving the goalpost in their favour. We need to put our foot down. I want to buy another property and rent the current one until I can give it to my child

I don’t agree with a few of the things in the recent budget but basically if people have a second home (I’m one of these people) then generally speaking we have the broadest shoulders so can afford to pay more. Also helps the housing market for first time buyers and reduces student and holiday lets. What would you replace it with ?

Because we have a housing crisis. So people should not be using housing stock as businesses.

it's negligible unless you're looking to get rich quick, in which case you shouldn't be investing in BTL.

Good. We have a major housing issue in the UK right now. As a country we should be doing more to discourage people buying multiple homes and helping people get on to the property laddet
