Ollycromwell,
Well said, I wholeheartedly agree with you. I do as exactly like you, charge under the market rent, fix things as and when they go wrong. Taxes paid on time. Tenants remain at least 5 years with me, one lasted 12 years, they only go when they outgrow the property.
Those complaining are the ones that don`t want to do anything in life, yet envious of others whom do it successfully.
The bad landlords give the whole industry a bad name, therefore more regulation for everyone. I now would not buy any more, have 3 in total, and when the property market starts to pick up I will be selling out, due to the regulations as well as lower returns, which makes the whole thing not worth the effort.
