Advanced Rent to Rent Secrets

In the second part of his look at the rent-to-rent property strategy, Simon talks about how much you should be paying to a landlord, how best to convince them to engage with your proposed strategy, and which contracts you need to have in place!   KEY TAKEAWAYS Always ensure that the profit you’re making is enough to cover your costs, and still make it worth your while. The rule of thumb is to make at least £100 profit per room. A cash buffer is crucial. All landlords experience unexpected void periods from time to time, so ensure you have enough to see you through these times. When approaching a landlord, don’t enquire about the potential rent their property can make, but how much it is currently Contracts are essential, and need to be drawn up by solicitors who know what they’re doing. These contracts will generally be either commercial leases or a management agreement.   BEST MOMENTS ‘In the right circumstances, rent-to-rent can be a very powerful cashflow generator’ ‘You only ever buy a property in an area with strong rental demand’ ‘Remember that this is a numbers game’ ‘Rent-to-rent is a bit like the wild west at the moment'   VALUABLE RESOURCES To access some free online training about Rent to Rent register for free at www.RentToRentCourse.co.uk   To access Simon’s online training course, go to www.HMOcourse.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi   To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone:  http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk    ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.
