I suppose my thinking is along the lines of further diversifying (i.e.: equities and BTL) and that along with a yield of 5-6%, there is a potential for capital gain in regards to property price, and being able to use leverage to further increase property portfolio. That coupled with the fact that potentially, if the company-to-company loan is a viable option, makes BTL seem an attractive option, particularly for a contractor.
Then again, granted equities need a lot less administration and demands on mine/my wife's time, but as someone fairly new to investing, I suppose it's easier to wrap my head around a tangible bricks and mortar investment rather than scary stocks...!
