New UK renting law update as landlords 'make change'

A new UK law, the Renters' Rights Act, implemented earlier this year, has prompted landlords to reconsider their investment strategies. Many are shifting toward semi-commercial properties, which are viewed as a more tax-efficient and secure alternative to traditional residential buy-to-let. This shift is driven by increased regulation and taxation on residential rentals, making them less appealing. Industry experts note that semi-commercial properties offer benefits such as longer leases and lower acquisition costs, though they require more specialized knowledge and financing. While experienced landlords are showing greater interest in these properties, first-time investors tend to prefer conventional buy-to-let options.
