Storm Clouds 
The UK property market has seen growth but there are storm clouds on the horizon – rises in stamp duty on buy-to-lets, reduced tax breaks for buy-to-let investors and the upcoming financial turmoil stemming from both the Brexit referendum and the worsening political climate overseas.
Not only that, mortgage costs are increasing rapidly, potentially making properties unaffordable.
Chinese Investment 
The property market has been driven by Chinese investment from overseas, but with cracks appearing in China’s economy and repeated currency devaluations this drive is beginning to run out of steam. A shrinking economy will impact every other region around the world and leave demand for UK buy-to-lets through the floor, fuelling a drop in house prices and therefore in the value of property investments.
