    BTL - Doom

    FT: UK homes for rent exceed demand

    How did this happen? Who's to blame? Well certainly there are those more responsible than others, and they will be held accountable, but again truth be told, if you're looking for the guilty, you need only look into a mirror.

    I have a very long waiting list for my properties.
    They are of a very high standard though.

      Where are they living while they wait? Do you have a railway arch/cardboard box franchise?

          Seems to me you're missing a golden opportunity there - it probably wouldn't cost much to throw up a few railway arches (no railway required, unless the punters are keen on "authenticity") and you could get decent boxes by following people home from Currys and going through their bins the next day.

          Your mate could help you out with the railway bit, if he wasn't inside... maybe this was his Plan B?
