In this video I thought I would address a problem which is quite a common problem that I find when I am talking to would-be investors, and that is that the would-be investor wants to get into property and they have a plan for getting into property, but on closer examination it seems like they…
A question I am almost always asked by somebody who is just about to begin in property is ‘should I go to an auction to buy my first property?’ I guess that’s a natural question. We’ve all watched Homes Under the Hammer and it can give this idealised view of buying properties at auction and…
How active or passive do I want to be in my (buy to let) property investing business? Many of us want to be passive. After all we didn’t go into property to create another job. But whether we are going to be active or passive will often depend upon practical considerations like whether we buy…
