Our research shows the North East to be out of kilter with the rest of the country, looking particularly weak and plunging into negative territory once again \u2013 the fifth time in 12 months.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBy contrast, the North West of England saw strong growth, posting the best monthly return of any region. However, the story ahead for traditional buy-to-let landlords, could make uncomfortable reading when mortgage interest tax relief is gradually withdrawn and interest rates finally increase.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/propertypartner-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/06140802\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-06-at-15.07.31.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-87\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/propertypartner-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/06140802\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-06-at-15.07.31.png\" alt=\"crossrail-centra-section-1\" width=\"2140\" height=\"2817\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><em><small><b>Click to enlarge graph<\/b>.<\/small><\/em><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/propertypartner-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/06135131\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-06-at-14.50.52.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-87\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/propertypartner-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/06135131\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-06-at-14.50.52.png\" alt=\"crossrail-centra-section-1\" width=\"2140\" height=\"2817\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/propertypartner-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/06135242\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-06-at-14.52.22.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-87\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/propertypartner-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/04\/06135242\/Screen-Shot-2016-04-06-at-14.52.22.png\" alt=\"crossrail-centra-section-1\" width=\"2140\" height=\"2817\"><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<br \/>\n&nbsp;<br \/>\n<!-- Begin MailChimp Signup Form -->\n \t<link href=\"\/\/cdn-images.mailchimp.com\/embedcode\/slim-10_7.css\" rel=\"stylesheet\" type=\"text\/css\">\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n\t#mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; }<br \/>\n\t\/* Add your own MailChimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.<br \/>\n\t   We recommend moving this block and the preceding CSS link to the HEAD of your HTML file. *\/<br \/>\n<\/style>\n<div id=\"mc_embed_signup\">\n<form action=\"https:\/\/propertypartner.us9.list-manage.com\/subscribe\/post?u=bb49cbb22f66a692d5bb9ad74&amp;id=7f3b9b3eb1\" method=\"post\" id=\"mc-embedded-subscribe-form\" name=\"mc-embedded-subscribe-form\" class=\"validate\" target=\"_blank\" novalidate=\"\">\n<div id=\"mc_embed_signup_scroll\">\n\t<label for=\"mce-EMAIL\">Subscribe to our monthly newsletter to access property market updates, Property Partner related news, and to hear about new investment opportunities.<\/label><br \/>\n<input type=\"email\" value=\"\" name=\"EMAIL\" class=\"email\" id=\"mce-EMAIL\" placeholder=\"email address\" required=\"\"><br \/>\n<!-- real people should not fill this in and expect good things - do not remove this or risk form bot signups--><\/p>\n<div style=\"position: absolute; left: -5000px;\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><input type=\"text\" name=\"b_bb49cbb22f66a692d5bb9ad74_7f3b9b3eb1\" tabindex=\"-1\" value=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"clear\"><input type=\"submit\" value=\"Subscribe\" name=\"subscribe\" id=\"mc-embedded-subscribe\" class=\"button\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/form>\n<\/div>\n<p><!--End mc_embed_signup--><br \/>\n&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Notes on Methodology<\/strong><br \/>\n<small>The Property Partner Residential Market Index provides a long term proxy for private rented sector investment<br \/>\nperformance.
