Terms and Editorial Standards

Last updated: 20 August 2026

These terms explain how content on The Anxious Investor is produced and the conditions that apply when you use theanxiousinvestor.com.

Editorial purpose

The Anxious Investor publishes practical analysis on UK property, mortgages, tax, personal finance, investing and related economic issues. Articles aim to separate confirmed facts from opinion, explain uncertainty and show how headline figures may affect real decisions.

Research and sourcing

• Primary and authoritative sources are preferred, including government departments, regulators, official statistics, company filings and published policy documents.
• Credible reporting and specialist industry sources may be used to add context or cover developing stories.
• Material figures should be linked or attributed so readers can inspect the underlying source.
• Confirmed policy, proposals, forecasts and personal opinion should not be presented as though they are the same thing.
• Where reliable data is incomplete, delayed or disputed, that limitation should be made clear.

Experience and opinion

Some articles include Aren Deu’s experience as a UK property investor and content creator. Personal examples can provide useful context, but they are not proof that another person will achieve the same result. Opinion sections represent the author’s interpretation of the available evidence and should be read as opinion.

Corrections and updates

Accuracy matters. If a material factual error is identified, the article may be corrected and, where appropriate, the change will be made clear. Articles may also be updated when official figures, laws, policies or market conditions change. Publication and update dates do not guarantee that every external fact remains current indefinitely.

Correction requests can be sent to hello@arendeu.com with the article link, disputed statement and supporting evidence.

Financial disclaimer

Nothing on this website is personal financial, investment, mortgage, tax, accounting or legal advice. Content does not consider your objectives, financial position, tax status, borrowing capacity or tolerance for loss.

Investments can fall as well as rise and you may lose money. Property carries risks including borrowing costs, void periods, repairs, taxation, regulation and changes in local demand. Tax rules depend on individual circumstances and can change. Past performance is not a reliable guide to future results.

Before making a significant decision, check current information and consider advice from an appropriately qualified and, where required, FCA-authorised professional. You remain responsible for your own decisions.

Advertising, sponsorships and affiliate links

The website may display advertising, sponsorships or affiliate links. Where The Anxious Investor receives payment, commission, free access or another material benefit connected to content, that relationship should be disclosed clearly. Commercial support does not guarantee positive coverage and should not be presented as independent editorial opinion.

External links and embedded content

Articles may link to or embed third-party websites, videos, calculators or services. These are provided for context and convenience. The Anxious Investor does not control third-party availability, security, privacy practices, accuracy or later changes to external pages. A link does not automatically mean endorsement.

Acceptable use

You must not misuse the website, attempt unauthorised access, introduce malicious code, scrape it in a way that disrupts service, impersonate another person or use its content for unlawful purposes.

Copyright

Unless stated otherwise, original written content, graphics and branding on this website belong to The Anxious Investor or its content creator. Short quotations may be used where permitted by law and properly attributed with a link. Republishing substantial articles, images or branded materials requires written permission.

Availability and liability

Reasonable care is taken when preparing content, but the website is provided without a guarantee that every page will always be available, complete or current. To the fullest extent permitted by law, The Anxious Investor is not responsible for losses arising solely from reliance on general website content or from the availability and conduct of third-party services. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Courts with the appropriate jurisdiction in England and Wales will deal with disputes, subject to any mandatory consumer rights that apply.
