Investment:- If you are embarking on your first investment purchase or adding to your already extensive portfolio, Barrie Wardrobe & Co. can help. With the UK's population rising, rental demand increasing and various tax incentives that encourage individuals to become landlords, there has never been a better time to invest in Buy to Let properties. We can offer a selection of properties in the North East which is an attractive area for Buy to Let and here's why:

  • The ideal properties are only half way up their growth cycle - the majority of high quality Buy to Let properties show enormous potential for their value to increase
  • The numbers stack up, with the properties available for just a minimum of 20% deposit; rental income usually comfortably covers the mortgage
  • The UK market is slowing - rising interest rates means it's easier to purchase high quality modernised properties in desirable areas


Our portfolio currently includes a wide range of suitable Buy To Let properties, and you can rest assured that each meets current letting standards, and that we will do our best to help you find suitable tenants so that you can really make the most of your investment.
