Hi Ahmed,I can't emphasize enough how invaluable this video was to me. It was like getting a one-on-one mentorship session with an experienced property entrepreneur . As a result of watching this video, I've started implementing some of the strategies and tips you shared, and I'm already seeing promising results. It's not just theoretical knowledge; it's practical, actionable advice that I can apply in the real world.
@@ThatAhmedKhan Totally agree, this is Real Value, thank you! One question I have is what exactly is the process of asking the freeholder permission for reconfiguration? Is this before completion of the sale? Is there any difficulty in this process depending on the type of freeholder? Also the same question applies to extending a lease, but not sure if you have done that yet?
@@jamesburke2992Hi James, to extend a lease you will have to go through a solicitor because there is a legal process involved, rare but also possible to arrange the lease extension price with the freeholder and then involve a solicitor to complete the legal bit. To reconfigure the flat a written permission is enough. Depending who the freeholder is an actual person or a company will determine the time to get permission.
Thankyou for the value you bring just WOW! 2 Questions I have seen it hasn't been responded to in the comments yet. 1. How do you assess its a council flat? The brick is darker colour but council buildings are not so obvious otherwise. How do you know its council? 2. Do you ask the agent to ask the current leaseholder to ask the freeholder to give permissions to do a 2 bed conversion before actually purchasing? Thanks a bunch!
Hi Ahmed, do you get freehold permission for the kitchen switch before the purchase of the property or just research the council standards / ask the private owner before?
Once you own the property you need to obtain freeholders details by going through management company. You apply for licence to alterations. Once it's granted it will tell you things you can do to the property. Normally anything that isn't structural. It will come with a fee. If you move kitchen through the solid wall (even pipework to the soil stack they will ask for a structural drawings. It's all under permitted development meaning you'd need building control to verify the works.
Greatly appreciated. Much better version of my spreadsheet 😅. Question regarding freeholder consent. Is there processes that can be implemented to quickly get permission?
This strat would work way better(in a short term) midlands to north, due to higher yields and better cash flow. However the properties you showed and the areas you buying in the long term will make great returns on capital gains.
Love the videos Ahmed. My question is for someone that has £50k to invest, this strategy wouldn’t work for someone in London or surrounding areas so would you advise of doing a similar 1-2 bed conversion and flipping maybe further up north (midlands and surrounding areas) or maybe focusing on other strategies such as HMOs where the ROCE will be much greater ?
I would focus on doing this in an area where you can buy things for £50,000. After you’ve done your first one, you will have the credibility to raise money and other states you can look to buy properties in London if you wish to do so :-)
You missed out 1 key thing which is checking if the lease holder would even let you convert it from 1 bed to 2 bed. Imagine you go through all of that and buy it and then lease holder denies permission to do the conversion.
@@schmooze6360 with a flat you dont ever own it, owner is the freeholder, you simply buy a lease for 99 years or 999 years or whatever. you need their permission to do major construction works.
Correct, you will need freehold of consent in order to do this. Watch this video from 7:28 - it breaks down how to get consent: ruclips.net/video/VF2eQgt20yY/видео.htmlsi=OcdoHIfC2ENtN6QM&t=448
Hi Ahmed, another great video. Question: If the key figures for money left in starts with a minus is this a good indication showing that all money has been pulled out of deal? And as a result of money left in starting with a minus, this also effects the ROCE & appreciation value, also starting with a minus. Does this indicate an infinite return?
Hey Ahmed, great video - thank you for posting. I have a question in reference to the bridging finance and the money left in, can I do this with zero upfront cash by bridging it upfront? I'm assuming I can, but what does that mean when it comes to the £56k left in? Where do I obtain that from?
20:12 Hi Ahmed, would you be able to go into more detail about refinancing? Thank you for such an informative video - I am currently binge watching you! Keep up the amazing work Ahmed
Thank you for this! Just found your channel and have subscribed, my patch is west London. This is a very interesting modle, do you joint venture or would that be of interest to you on any property deals.
Hi Ahmed, Can this template be used for a deal sourcing business? and if not do you have a template that is tailored predominantly towards deal sourcing. Thanks again for the value.
As always it feels like theft waching the videos for free!!! we should at least buy you a coffee lol just a quick one, in another video you said that inner room for kitchen was okay as long as it was ground or 1st floor. is this still correct?
Hi there for the very informative video. Can someone help me understand why wet need to avoid red council flats over 5 stories? I don't write understand that reasoning. Thanks
Hey Ahmed great video and the videos on the channel are amazing. I was wondering if you could provide the details of a finance broker you would recommend.
Solved : I have logged in to Notion. How do I access the template you are using ? Do I need to import the template ? Not sure how to get this working Solution : 1. Sign up to Notion using the link at the bottom of the video . 2. Then open the Property Investing Template at the bottom of the video . 3. When the Property Investing Template opens, look up in the top right hand corner of the screen and select "Duplicate "
Hi Ahmed, thank you very much for the free template. Unfortunately, the deal funnel is not working as they is no + button to add new property and that section is already populated with two previous properties already there prior to downloading the link. Any suggestions? Many thanks Ian.
Thanks Ahmed. Can you tell me how you get Freeholders permission and the costs related to this. Also are stamp duty and capital gains tax in your yield figures. Thanks
If we changed from 1 bed to 2 bed, do we need to inform to council or land registry. How can we picture in the floor plan this is 2 bed with the open plan living with kitchen?
Can I ask an unrelated question? On one of your long training videos you mentioned a company that does short let’s to businesses. I checked them out and found they have agents that cover where my flat is based in Barcelona . Unfortunately i didn’t make note of it and I can’t find that company now, can you advise please.
Sadly this one doesn’t cover Barcelona, but one company you mentioned in the video did when I checked at the time. sadly I can’t find that part of the training video .
Hi Ahmed, really informative video. I'm interested in doing something like this, since I live in London and I think property is an interesting endeavour. But why do you make these videos? Surely it inspires others to become competitors? Sure, there is ad cents. But still, it seems counter-productive if this is your career. What do you gain? Will
And property is a very geographical business. If I do a project in Stevenage and you do one in London we can both win just because you’re doing one in London. It doesn’t attract me from doing my one in a different location even if you were both in London. There are so many properties out there that one person can’t do all of them. If there was an online business like Amazon there is only one winner bedroom property there can be 100 of winners
Thanks for getting back to me. That being said, I'm not sure I fully understand your response. So you're saying that, due to the nature of the property market and it being somewhat abundant, you feel that these videos don't threaten you with more competition. Since there is more than enough supply (property) for everyone to invest in? @@ThatAhmedKhan
yep thats exactly what I mean! I just bought a house 3 weeks ago to turn into 5 flats - if you do the same in another area it doesn't affect me. I don't have the capacity to do 20 projects at a time anyways :)@@willwattles5416
