Budget Breakdown & What It Means For HMO Investors

In today’s episode, I break down the Autumn Budget and what it really means for HMO landlords and property investors, with expert insight from mortgage specialist Ellie Broadhurst.

After weeks of speculation and political noise, the budget has finally landed and while it wasn’t as bad as many feared, it was still far from good news. We explore the key changes that affect landlords, what didn’t happen (and why that matters), and the wider direction of travel for the property market. Most importantly, we discuss what you should be thinking about now to protect your portfolio and stay ahead in an increasingly challenging landscape.
