Q. Why Invest in Property?

Q. What strategy should I choose?

A. This has many factors and depends greatly on your goals and circumstances.

Q. Is BTL a good strategy?

A. BTL investments can provide a steady stream of rent, which can be a reliable source of monthly income. However, you are responsible for maintaining the property and dealing with tenants, which can be time-consuming and may require a significant amount of effort.

Q. Do I need training?

A. Read books, attend seminars, and research online to learn as much as you can about property investing.

Q. I’m just starting out in property, what is the best way?

A.  It’s a good idea to start with a small investment and gradually increase your portfolio over time as you gain experience and confidence.

Q. Is managing an HMO a good strategy?

A. HMOs typically generate higher rental income than single-family homes, as multiple tenants are sharing the same property. However, managing an HMO can be more complex than managing a single-family home, as you have to deal with multiple tenants and their different needs and requirements.

Q. Should I manage rent to rent properties?

A. Rent-to-rent properties can be seen as a lower-risk investment compared to purchasing a property outright. However, managing a rent-to-rent property involves finding and managing tenants, collecting rent, and dealing with any legal or maintenance issues that may arise.

Q. What is the best way to find tired landlords who might want to sell?

A. Connect with other property investors, estate agents, and property management companies to identify potential sellers. Attend property events, join local property investment clubs, and participate in online property forums and groups.

Q. Why would I use a property sourcer?

A. Property sourcers often have access to off-market deals that are not widely advertised, giving investors an advantage in a highly competitive market.
