Preserving Cashflow when Interest Rates Rise

[everydaytrader]

With interest rates likely to rise, what are the property investor/landlords on the forum
planning to do to try and maintain their cashflow?

Personally I am changing from single let to multi-let on a couple of my properties that
are due to become vacant in the next few weeks, don't like the inevitable extra work
and hassle that comes with letting room by room but the extra cashflow is going to
be welcome. Refinancing is so difficult at the moment and the fees and rates around
at present probably make it a non starter anyway.

Fix your rate for 3+ years? Relatively speaking mid / long term swap rates are still quite low.

Wait you're an investor/landlord, not a borrower... Why do you care about rising rates? Is it 'cause you're leveraged or is it 'cause you're expecting a slower rental mkt?
