#206 It’s often said in property that you make your money at the point of purchase. If you’re serious about building a property portfolio then you need to be trying to buy at wholesale rather than retail prices. But if you don’t want to pay someone to find deals for you, then you should at least use the resources that sourcers themselves use. Property Engine is the go-to property portal of choice for many sourcers. I signed up for a two-week trial and was so impressed that I invited founder Jamie Greef onto the show to tell us all about it. Jamie is generously offering 50% off the first month for Expat Property Story listeners. All you need to do is to use the code EXPAT when you click on the link in the show notes. During the episode we discuss: o Jamie’s background and inspiration for PropertyEngine o Target Audience o Affordable pricing and market appeal o Development of PropertyEngine o Features of PropertyEngine o Comparison with competitors o Customizable strategies for users o Unique data points and performance o Package differences and potential future additions o Examples of unique user strategies o Testimonials on data reliability and customer satisfaction o Flexibility and Customization Power o Ability for users to integrate existing workflows o Discussion of unique customer cases and satisfied clients o Importance of creativity in property investing o Time-saving features of PropertyEngine I'd Like Help With Setting My Goals Leave an honest review of Expat Property Story Join our Mailing List to join our WhatsApp group AND access our 37 Question Due Diligence Checklist AND our 23 Step Guide to Buying Property at Auction AND our Newsletter Follow Us on Instagram What's the one thing you’re struggling with in UK property Where to meet Expat Property Investors (For FREE): Hong Kong: Pacific Coffee, 2/F, Central Building, Central (1st Sat of month from 11:30 am) Dubai: Holiday Inn, Science Park (1st Weds of month from 7pm) Singapore: The Providore VivoCity (1st Sat of month from 10:30 am) Keywords Expat Property Story, property portfolio, wholesale prices, retail prices, discounted deals, ROI, Property Engine, Property Filter, Prop Saucer, Jamie Greef, UK property, remote investors, motivated sellers, deal analyzer, property engine features, property sourcing, investment strategies, property data, market trends, UK property investment, sourcing business, property deals, property filters, property engine pricing, sourcing pipeline, property licensing, direct to vendor letters, property analysis, property comparables, expat property investment.…

Short Lease Extensions for Quick Profits in UK Property 41:29

há 24 dias41:29

#203 Buying a leasehold property with less than 80 years left on the lease offers savvy investors the opportunity to add value and force the appreciation in a short timeframe. This allows you to potentially recycle your cash and turbo charge the growth of your portfolio. Short lease extensions are equally powerful whether you’re trading for a quick profit or holding for cashflow. And if you can combine lease extensions with other value adding strategies such as BRR (Buy Refurbish, Refinance) and reconfiguring properties to add more bedrooms, then you can make some serious cash. Jason Patterson, is a seasoned property investor with over 23 years of experience in UK property. He built his portfolio from a standing start, from money saved from his job stacking shelves in Sainsbury’s in Camden, North London. In total, Jason worked at Sainsbury’s for 11 years, and as a side hustle, he almost accidentally focused on leasehold properties with short leases, a niche that would later earn him his nickname as the Short Lease King. During the episode, we discuss: o Benefits of purchasing properties with short leases o Explanation of what constitutes a short lease o Impact on property value and mortgageability o Sweet Spot for Short Leases o Discussion on ideal lease lengths for extending o Combining short lease strategy with mortgageability o Steps to gather lease extension information o Importance of contacting freeholders o Explanation of Section 42/Leasehold Reform o Impact of potential leasehold reforms on buying strategies o Handling Vendor Resistance o Challenges with uncooperative vendors o Augmenting Short Lease Strategy with Additional Strategies o Combining this strategy with BRR and reconfiguration o "Triple Threat" properties o Criteria and considerations for choosing properties o Common mistakes new investors make o Reasons why this strategy may suit expats o Financial Considerations and Leasehold Reforms o The effect of Leasehold reform o Impact of leasehold reforms on profitability I'd Like Help With Setting My Goals Leave an honest review of Expat Property Story Join our Mailing List to join our WhatsApp group AND access our 37 Question Due Diligence Checklist AND our 23 Step Guide to Buying Property at Auction AND our Newsletter Follow Us on Instagram What's the one thing you’re struggling with in UK property Where to meet Expat Property Investors (For FREE): Hong Kong: Pacific Coffee, 2/F, Central Building, Central (1st Sat of month from 11:30 am) Dubai: Holiday Inn, Science Park (1st Weds of month from 7pm) Singapore: The Providore VivoCity (1st Sat of month from 10:30 am) Keywords property investment, wholesale property, retail property, problem properties, lease extension, Short Lease King, UK property, buy refurbish refinance, refurbish properties, refinancing, property portfolio, property expertise, HMOs, property value, mortgageability, leasehold properties, leasehold reform, capital growth, dilapidated properties, leaseholder, freeholder, section 42 notice, lease extension premium, property strategies, property education, property market, rental property, property investors, leasehold surveyor, UK housing market…

#193 This is the 7th instalment of our Daily Sevens Season in which we're giving you seven gifts each day over the Xmas period. Today it's quotes. As I was trying to choose, it got too difficult to stick to seven. So instead I picked seven themes so that I can squeeze in a couple more quotes for you. The seven themes are: Money Quote: "The only thing that money gives is the freedom of not worrying about money." - Johnny Carson Hard Work Quote: "About the only thing that comes to us without effort is old age." - Gloria Pitzer Education Quote: "A child educated only at school is an uneducated child." - George Santayana Knowledge Quote 1: "Real knowledge is to know the extent of one's ignorance." - Confucius Quote 2: "To pretend to know when you do not is a disease." - Laozi Mindset Quote 1: "The mind is like a parachute. It doesn't work if it's not open." - Frank Zappa Quote 2: "The empires of the future are the empires of the mind." - Winston Churchill Quote 3: "A mind that is stretched by a new experience can never go back to its old dimensions." - Oliver Wendell Holmes Habit Quote: "Habit is a cable. We weave a thread of it every day, and at last, we cannot break it." - Horace Mann Keep It Simple Quote: "Everything is both simpler than we imagine and more entangled than we can conceive." - Goethe Our investor list is full right now, but we'll be doing more projects in the year ahead.
