It makes no sense for btl investors to buy and not rent out the property. We borrow the money that we use to buy the property so we have to pay interest on that money. Why on earth do you think that we don't rent the property out? We are paying out money for the privilege of owning it. We want to recoup our outgoings. Why would you think that we don't rent the property out? What planet are you living on?

Estate agents don't let properties. You really don't have a clue. Please have a read of this. It's a very good read
