Why Buy-to-Let residential property may not be your best investment in retirement

Among investors in the United Kingdom, Buy to Let property offers an opportunity to own a physically tangible investment which can be used to generate income during the retirement years. However, there are various issues regarding this form of investment that limit their appeal as retirement investment vehicles when compared to pension contributions.
These issues are discussed in our paper and they include: risks associated with over exposure to one asset class, issues associated with the illiquid nature of property, and the increased costs that are related to the changes introduced by the government in the residential property rental market over the past few years, particularly changes related to taxes such as stamp duty, income tax, capital gains tax, and inheritance tax.
