It’s all hands on deck for landlords looking to sell, as September promises to be the “peak month” to sell property. Just one week away, buyers are already pushing to snap up buy-to-let houses and landlord property portfolios in the rush to complete before Christmas and the Budget. But why? Put simply, the Autumn Budget, expectedContinue reading “September is peak time to sell your property: Buyers push to complete by Christmas in sudden house price surge”

In what seems like a change of the tide, the property market has shown signs of swinging in favour of landlords this month. Following what looked like a tricky time for landlords trying to sell their ex-rentals, it seems that buy-to-let properties are back in demand, and they’re selling fast. Last week we shared the newsContinue reading “As sellers’ market picks up, not even fire and structural damage can stop us selling properties in under 2 weeks”

Despite moments of silver lining, I think we all agree it’s a tough market for landlords. With changes to regulations, rent caps, abolishment of Section 21 no-fault evictions, the Renters’ Rights Bill and more, it’s no surprise that so many landlords are still thinking of selling. For a landlord based in Leicester, that’s exactly the decision sheContinue reading “Below market rents, no EPCs, poor conditions and council fines: We Still Sold These Properties in 15 days”

Case study: How we helped a landlord sell her portfolio including a property with vunerable tenant, a HMO with five tenants and 2 mixed commercial/residential units.

When Chancellor Rachel Reeves was filmed crying during Prime Minister’s Questions on Wednesday as Keir Starmer declined to guarantee she would remain in place until the election, the property world took notice.

Let’s cut to the chase. You’ve been in property for the last decade, perhaps even longer. You’ve seen the news, we all have, and things just don’t look great for landlords. Last year, I took a good, hard look at my portfolio after finally making the decision it was time to downsize. Like many ofContinue reading “Landlords in their 50’s cash in: “Selling now is the equivalent of 20 years of rent””

It’s a story we’re hearing over and over again this month, and in the upcoming weeks, we expect no different. Enter the unexpected wealth boom transforming smart landlords’ fortunes and, you guessed it, the game is in getting out, not getting further in. For many landlords, including Nigel and Carol, who recently reached out toContinue reading ““I’m richer now selling my houses than I was renting them” – Landlords rush to get out”

NB. With the amount of enquiries flooding in, it won’t be open for long – ACT NOW. The fund is actively seeking HMOs and PBSA’s (up to 60 bed units) across the UK’s top university towns, with a focus on quickly deploying capital. They are prepared to make fast, competitive decisions, often within the hour,Continue reading “New fund launch: “We can buy your HMOs and PBSAs within an hour””

As the saying goes: one step forward, two steps back. Just as we thought we were getting out of the danger zone, this week’s shot to the jugular kicked off with the resurfacing of videos referencing Prime Minister Keir Starmer claiming that landlords “do not qualify as working people.” It was the scandal of lastContinue reading “Labour’s Looming Tax Raid: “landlords are in trouble if they don’t sell now””

It’s hard not to laugh at the current governmental interference when it comes to landlords and our properties. First, they hit us with the Renters’ Rights Bill, an aggressive swipe that could see thousands of landlords destroyed, down and out, then this: Keir Starmer’s latest appeal to landlords to house Channel migrants. As the saying goes: Don’tContinue reading “Starmer’s Migrant Housing Scheme pushes landlords to jump on a profit-making opportunity”
