How to bring in the returns as the storm gathers

Life has got much tougher for buy-to-let investors over the past year. Falling house prices are worrying those with highly geared portfolios, while a scarcity of competitive mortgage deals are pushing up repayments. Add to this an oversupply of certain types of property, making it a tenants' market, and it is no wonder some buy-to-let investors - especially those with smaller portfolios – are having sleepless nights.

This exclusive download from Money Observer looks at the challenges facing landlords in this turbulent housing market and how to be better placed to weather the storm.
