Getting into buy to let without the stress?
I visited a friend recently and asked him whether he was considering buying yet another property to let. His answer: “too stressful…I rather want to develop my next property and sell”.
Please leave your comments: Is it still possible to get into buy to let without financial stress these days?

I don’t think you should realistically expect to get any kind of renumeration without stress of some kind. Hunt for tenants yourself, stress. Have an agency do it, stress. OK, you get more money with the former approach but then potentially you start stressing about whether the investment is worth it or not given the long-term damage stress can do to your health. So the answer would seem to be no on the basis that stress is axiomatic no matter your approach to the subject of buy to let.
