Hello everyone! 👋
Progress is finally being made on the first buy-to-let. There's been a few teething issues with the lending side of things but nothing that isn't fixable. A new lender and new solicitor later we're back on track!
I've been working on the floorplans of the property and thinking about how to decorate the space, what materials to use and how on earth I'm going to fit this into a £9000 budget (with £1k contingency). Here's a sneek peak at some of the render:
A lot of the rental stock is terrible quality in the area. So this property should really stand out, it's round the corner (literally) from 2 primary schools and a main secondary school. There's barely any rental supply in the area so when this goes up, I'm expecting it to be snapped up quickly. I haven't spoken to estate agents yet but I think that £650 would be achieveable in the area for a 3-bed semi.
I really cannot wait to share proper videos of this and give you a walkthrough of the property a
nd showcase the refurb!

👋 Hey Reader It's been a busy few months, so I've been a little quiet on emails. We finally moved into the big renovation project outside of London after a stressful 8 month conveyancing process and the house almost falling through (classic). Planning permission has been submitted and we're starting to rip out the house, however living in a project that you're doing up is always tricky with logistics! After we bought the house, a house 4 doors down the road sold for £1.5m in cash to a famous...
👋 Hey friends Premier Property Lawyers are still being the biggest pain in the bum in our property sale. My buyers mortgage expires in 3 weeks and they keep raising endless menial enquiries at the last minute that keeps holding us back. I repeat my advice from the last newsletter - never ever use any of the conveyancing brands under the Simplify group. They're awful. In other news - the property market has took an incredible flip over the past few weeks, we really did not expect interest...
