Summary

Late last year in episode 249 we made our predictions for 2018.   We harnessed all our psychic ability to glimpse into the future to look at which cities would enjoy the highest growth, what would happen to London or would interest rates rise.  We were even bold (or foolish) enough to predict the future of Bitcoin.   Now that we’re at the halfway point in the year, it’s time to see if our predictions are on track.  Fingers crossed! NEWS THIS WEEK An article this week claims that Manchester tops list of best UK cities to be a landlord.  This certainly bodes well as we review our predictions, but does this list have some unexpected surprises?
