The Buy To Let sector turned a corner in 2013 and is now firmly established as a core part of the UK housing and mortgage markets. Established  players in the market are innovating as new entrants increase competition. As a result, it is crucial that all interested  parties keep up to speed with the changing market and maintain and improve their networking links.

Mortgage Solutions is delighted to deliver the third annual Mortgage Buy to Let Forum, providing a targeted half-day platform for you to meet the experts and discuss the impact of factors affecting this market for better or worse, such as:

• The strong annual increase in UK house prices (8%+) and double digit growth in London and other pockets
• Continued growing demand for rental property despite a rise in first-time buyer numbers
• Increased rental demand from students, pensioners, immigrants
• Improved access to buy-to-let finance as criteria continue to loosen
• Buy-to-let lending reaching a five-year high in 2013 - this trend looks set to continue
• Changing attitudes to/criteria surrounding social tenants and longer-term tenancies.
