The Facts:
People will always speculate but the facts speak for themselves.

- Since 1962 the office of national statistics have recorded that rents have risen on average by 13% per annum.
- On average, UK property prices more than double every decade.
- Over the last fifty years, UK property has only gone down twice in real terms – 1971-73 & 1989-92. Five years out of fifty!
