Property Investor Q&A – Is Buy-to-Let Still Worth It?
Market insights, finance, regulation and straight answers for landlords, investors and property professionals.
The buy-to-let market is changing. Higher borrowing costs, new regulations, proposed EPC requirements and changes affecting landlords have left many investors asking a simple question:
Is buy-to-let still worth it?
Join the Redbridge Chamber of Commerce for a practical Property Investor Q&A bringing together experts from across property, finance, taxation and the private rented sector.

- Renters' Rights reforms and what landlords need to prepare for
- Proposed EPC changes and their potential impact

- Tax and accounting considerations
- Where the opportunities may still exist
- Live Q&A – put your questions directly to our expert panel
