Mark Harris: Is this the end of mum and dad investors?

from The OneRoof Radio Show · host Newstalk ZB

Mum and dad investors are pulling out of the property market.  The housing market is shifting to focus on the needs of your everyday owner-occupier, but the demand for rentals as still as high as ever and it doesn't look like that will change any time soon.  The problem is that, among other reasons, the cost of running a rental is at an all time high, debt-to-income and loan-to-value ratio rules have blocked a lot of access to funding, and long-term capital gains aren't what they once were - all leading to more professional property investors.
