I'm in the UK and there are quite a few services now that invest your money into property and infrastructure loans as peer to peer loans. I've invested in quite a few and see ~£50 a month as gains across the total set. I usually either reinvest or I pay out and buy into other investments. I could increase my exposure here but I think I'm at a comfortable level for my risk appetite.

For me this is investing in property but without the hassle of long term maintenance. You don't own the property but it's much more hassle free and fairly passive as long as you pick which things you'd like to invest into.

Services I've personally invested in and would vouch for: - https://www.kuflink.com/ - https://www.loanpad.com/ - https://www.lendingworks.co.uk/ - https://www.abundanceinvestment.com/

You might like to try out some peer to peer loan based investments if you're after some fairly passive gains.



Is £50 a sizeable return in the UK?


I opened up a couple of those links and found tax free returns of 3 to 4.5%, so not very enticing.


50 as in fifty? Guessing that’s a typo.
