Glad to see you doing so well. It does look hotel like. If possible, go through the process when a tenant leaves. How long is the lease? Cost to get out of the lease? Cost with returning to the original condition? Any problems tenants have had so far with each other? Etc.

Hi, Can you send me a link to place where you got your furniture? 10k for a four bed house seems quite cheap compared with the prices I am looking at now. Thanks in advance!
So guys 4 rooms at 590 is 28320 a year less ten percent 25400 a year. Minus 30 percent bills etc is 15 k a year 150 k mortgage at 4.5 percent is 7 k leaves 8 k cash flow per year £666 a month?? Great videos love watching you guys
FYI chip & Trading 212 offer at these rates, plus with a bit of financial manoeuvring you can probably allocate a fair portion to max out 20k allowances within nuclear families
How is the money left in deal after refinance £41,677? The new mortgage of £150k will pay off the old mortgage of £87,507.75 and equity of £62,492.25 will be released that you would use to reduce your new mortgage. Please clarify.
Its good hmo but cant help but feel depressed at the thought of living/sleeping/eating in a bedroom with X amount of adults. a studio feels better as this home is a bit like a student house. But great for you guys as landlords.
Hi, thank you guys for an amazing video. I have a question about bridging finance if you bridge 75% on a hmo and you pay the reminding deposit of 25%, for the refurb costs can you get a bridge loan on that as well or do you have to seek investors?
I think they meant to say by turning the Lounge into a bedroom the property now become a 4 bedroom instead of the original 3 bedroom property. Meaning it become a bigger/more bedroom property.
Of course you can buy you have to save your money and put your deposit and have mortgage for 35 years my adviceis get some overtime in for 35 years and stop moaning aand blaming every one else. @@monkeypickle4539

This is a great video and excellent detail...although you did get lucky with the rents. In a more realistic scenario your ROI would have been half what it was in your calculator (your rents are a 14% yield on the 200k valuation...the average rental property in the UK pays a 5% yield lol) btw your initial deposit number doesnt look right...Shouldn't it be like £12k higher since the bridge lender deducted like 12k of interest Day1? and ur monthly operating expenses are super high, normally they are like 10-15% of rent

What part of the UK is this? I work in property and I know over 50 landlords, not ONE of them is making over 10% return a year. These numbers aren’t making sense
Did you watch the video? These clowns essentially claim 22% yearly yield on investment, but that's based on turnover not profit figures😅😅😅 Apparently thry didn't feel like considering costs would be relevant!
doesnt matter how much it makes per a month, its all about someone else paying the house of and you making the bank, focusing so much on making profit monthly will eventually lead to failure
The small kitchen is a concern for the increased number of bedrooms. The finish is good but not overjoyed by the fact you forgot your tenents need to eat and store there food. You might want to include a small kitchen space in each room in addition to the main kitchen.
To be honest you buy property for 120k plus refurbishment, and rent it out for 28k per year. The yeal is like 22%. The location must be very nice to get a tenant to rent for 28k per year. But nice location properties prices are not 120k even if they need repairs.
As a property developer and landlord myself i can confirm the majority of these figures are 100% made up🤦🏼♂️ they dont factor in half the costs. They dont factor in anything for empty rooms, insurances, breakages, maintenance, cleaning, ext... Also nobodies getting a managed rate of 10% 😂 theyll be lucky to be making £600 a month after costs and fees and could probably make that renting as a full house.
As an RICS residential surveyor myself, these sorts of videos and channels just make me sad. Of course, i understand the concept of dont hate the player hate the game. I know all too well the "game" holds the majority of the blame over many decades for creating conditions in which the "players" can buy up more than 1 property. Surely, though, people can use more creative ways to invest and build wealth rather than taking away homes for potential buyers who are just trying to own their first home. 1 couple needing to own 3 properties. "The numbers" do not add up by this logic.
All thats wrong with the uk property market and mortgage sector represented by one couple , wishing you all the none paying tenants in the future , i believe they should be a limit on how many can be bought to be let out
To be fair, it seems like a whole load of aggro to tie up a large amount of capital, with a large financial exposure to a precarious property market and the vagaries of tenants whom are never consistent, for minimal net gain over, say pure interest that would have been due on the capital invested. It looks great, but it seems you've utterly buried yourself in responsibility for less than exciting alpha.
Only need 25% of your own capital for a BTL property. So 25% of £120k = is £30k. This is then kept inline with the property price and you get the return on rental income. Some see value others don’t 🤙
This is one if reasons why young people struggle to buy their first home. Terrace houses are being bought up as investments. The ugly side of capitalism

Why you don't refurb property's for a single family occupancy,?? Pure and simple GREED. Love of money 💰. I have seen in in my area , landlords have decimated beautiful houses on little shacks, charging occupants an arm and a leg just for profit. Is ok running a business and making money, but how much money is enough?? Wrong way to go about it , but who cares now days, for how long the money is flowing, greed has no boundaries. Just a thought from a simple and not greedy man.
Love this. People have become too greedy and too spiteful to care. I’m all for people making money… but some ways I find more morally ethical than others. Landlords today aren’t moral by any standard. Housing has become an asset class for the rich instead of being a fundamental foundation for building families and the future. Not. One. Care. So when the housing market crashes (already is doing) and these house flipping dipsh*ts are locked in?? With debt??? Good luck manipulating your housing portfolios when you’re in mega negative equity 🎉
This doesn't deserve a reply but I can't resist. Here is a young couple who have researched and worked hard to create a business that supplies a proven need. They have gone about it in an ethical and responsible way and have provided some lovely units which even the appraiser recognized as well as their tenants. They clearly did not decimate a beautiful house nor are they out to gouge their tenants. I'm sorry if you have had some unfortunate experiences with landlords but these two certainly do not deserve your scorn.
It's not the landlords you should be blaming. There are simply not enough houses being built in areas where everyone wants to live. This creates a demand which leaves the landlords no choice but to raise the price. If there was not enough demand do you honestly believe the prices would be so high? Everything has a price and the price is usually not wrong.

Hi thanks for this vid.
I was wondering what is MOE and how many years was the mortgage?
Hi if you are looking at having a property long term is a repayment mortgage better?
thanks guys. do you rent the property once it's ready or wait until the refinancing - which I understand takes 6 months?
Yes we do. Rent once it’s ready
Which area was the property bought in
Hi, Can you send me a link to place where you got your furniture?

Hi - would you say its better to rent out a property on a room by room basis or the full property?
It’s at the point where hardly anyone can afford the cost of a whole property
And the utility costs can be claimed back on a HMO?
How is the money left in deal after refinance £41,677? The new mortgage of £150k will pay off the old mortgage of £87,507.75 and equity of £62,492.25 will be released that you would use to reduce your new mortgage. Please clarify.

We usually raise the finance for the refurb privately and try to keep all of those costs out of the bridging application
Quality of your HMO is exceptional. Do you need planning permission for those type of conversions?
Where is the location ?
Are you managing the the property yourself ?
They will never tell you
Whats the location?
I deadass that that dude was Ray William Johnson from the thumbnail until I heard him speak
Are you able to share the details of your builder and which area is this property located at please? Thank you
No chance.
It's all bullshit
It says in your excel that you receive rent of 2860... It should be 2354 right? So the correct ROI is 22.7% is that right?
Quick question - how did the other rooms get bigger from turning the living room into a bedroom?
I think they meant to say by turning the Lounge into a bedroom the property now become a 4 bedroom instead of the original 3 bedroom property. Meaning it become a bigger/more bedroom property.
so approx 28k per annum, minus 30 percent. £19600. Whats the monthly mortgage payment, you have left that off? I cant see where you have made 28k ?
