Landlord Sells Entire Property Portfolio For £2.3 Million In 9 Days And Believes Other Landlords Should Follow

The property market is sky high, an occurrence that happens just once every 7 years, so it’s no surprise that Landlords and Landlord Associations are in agreement that right now is the time to sell your buy-to-let portfolios.

We’ve all done it: built up a portfolio of buy-to-lets that have allowed us financial freedom over the last decade. But as tax rates increase, and the years go by, they’ve started to become more hassle than they’re worth. The problem is, when do you cash in to squeeze the most money out of them as possible? The answer is now, and there’s only one company that will do exactly that.

Property Portfolio Sold In 9 Days

For a Landlord in Hastings, that’s exactly what happened when he reached out to the team. He’d built up a portfolio of 24 flats across two blocks. All of them were tenanted, and seemed like a mammoth mission to sell up. From the moment he reached out to the Landlord Sales Agency, they knew exactly what to do. Straight away the properties were listed, and in just 9 days the whole of the first block was sold for £1.165 million. The second block didn’t even go on the market, the buyers were so impressed by the service, they bought the entire second block with just one viewing for an additional £1.091 million. Every tenant was kept on, with no relocation issues and zero hassle. The Landlord was able to sit back and relax while the team at Landlord Sales Agency did all the work.

It seems almost unheard of, but for Landlord Sales Agency, this is a story that’s happening every single week. What’s more, they have buyers ready to go and queuing up to buy properties. It’s really that simple. So if you’re a Landlord who is ready to retire and cash in, you’ll never get a better moment than right now with the Landlord Sales Agency. It’s time to make the call.

Portfolio Landlords: Now is the time to sell you tenanted property portfolio

If you’re a portfolio landlord, now is the perfect window to sell part or all of your buy-to-lets, from the experts who know exactly how to do it, for the best price.

We’re all in the same boat, having built up a handful of properties in our portfolio, we’re now facing higher tax bills than ever before, and the fear of our portfolios losing their value when the stamp duty holiday ends. As a private landlord myself, I understand all the challenges landlords are facing right now. It’s why I set up the Landlord Sales Agency, and the best team in the business to help, with over 20 years of experience behind us to solve every landlord problem, no matter what the problem. I’ve personally got 2,500 houses over the line and sold, even with tenants still in the properties. There’s no issue myself and my team can’t overcome, delivering win-win solutions for landlords, so they can sit back and relax knowing everything is in hand.

A study conducted by landlord insurance provider Simply Business found that over a quarter of landlords have already made the decision to reduce the size of their property portfolios. That number is set to increase as landlords cash in whilst they can still get the best prices before the 30st June. You need a company you can trust, who will take away the hassle, and make sure you get the best price, fast. That’s where we come in.

Here at the Landlord Sales Agency, we know exactly what to do, and as it’s founded by landlords for landlords, there’s no better team in the country to solve all your issues. We’ll raise the cash you need by getting the best price for your properties, whether it’s in selling part of your portfolio, or selling the whole portfolio. We’re faster than any other company: all our properties sell within 28 days or less.

What’s more, we’ll go that extra mile to not only solve your tax issues, we can even pay your tax bills for you with cash advances, that’s how confident we are we’ll get the job done.

How to sell a property portfolio with tenants

Recently a landlord approached us with a portfolio of 5 tenanted properties that spanned from Staffordshire all the way up to Newcastle Upon Tyne. Like many landlords who’ve been approaching us recently, he wanted to sell up his portfolio fast, but get a great price. We promised him exactly that. With a mixture of marketing to both investors and first-time buyers to drive up the prices, and Covid-friendly video tours, we went all out to keep that promise.

The first property sold in 2 days. 10 days after that 2 more sold. By day 24 the fourth property had sold in Durham, and by day 26 the last and final small property was sold in Lancashire. The fifth property was sold to a buyer who was so happy with the photos and the video tour we’d got from the tenant, he made an offer without even viewing the property.

The only task the landlord had done throughout the sale was make the decision to contact us to sell. We handled everything else.

It really was that simple. £500,000 made in 26 days with zero hassle, worry or stress.

The landlord was able to sit back and enjoy just over 3 weeks of relaxation knowing he had the best team in the UK solving every single challenge for him.

Whether it’s selling part of your portfolio to release cash to pay the upcoming tax bills, or selling your full portfolio now before house prices fall, Landlord Sales Agency are doing it, solving all your problems in a way that no other company is doing.

So if you’re a Landlord who is considering selling your property portfolio, get in touch today and see for yourself what we can do for you.

Selling A Property With Awkward Tenants

In these current times, there are a few challenges landlords may face when trying to sell their properties. Trying to sell a property while dealing with difficult tenants can be top of the list, but it doesn’t have to be. It’s time to bring in the professionals to take those worries off your hands.

Helping landlords gain access to their tenanted properties to sell for the best price

The key to selling a property for its best price is gaining access for video tours, photos and viewings. This is not easy for many landlords, especially when their letting agents may seem unmotivated, give up at first base or don’t try to get the tenants to help. The key to gaining access is communication and negotiation with the tenant. We know first-hand the challenges and how to reach solutions.

What if my tenants are a problem?

Recently a landlord contacted us wanting to sell his small property portfolio in London, and added to that they were HMO properties with multiple tenants. The first challenge was the tenants refusing access for both photos and viewings. The problem was simple: they were worried that once the sale went through, they’d have to vacate. They were also worried about COVID-19 and the hassle of viewings. So, our challenge is to get the tenants on side and get the highest quality photos and video tours we can with the tenants cooperation.

We have amazing staff in our team who understand tenants. We also have thousands of landlords who want to buy tenanted properties.

Our staff persevered to build relationship and confidence with the tenants. We first paid them to allow our agent to get the best photos and video we could, and we reassured them that our priority is to sell to one of our landlords to keep them on as a tenant. This is exactly what we did. Through our online video tours and auction platform we were able to sell one of the HMO’s to another landlord who kept the tenants within just a few weeks. On one of the other properties the highest bid was from a buyer who needed vacant possession but we were able to pay the existing tenant £5,000 from our fee to leave voluntarily and sign a Deed of Surrender.

The buyer, tenant and seller were all happy with our win-win solution.

In our business, the majority of properties sold end up going to investors wanting to keep the tenants on. If there’s a tenant that passionately wants to stay, no problem, we’ve got thousands of buyers who are happy to buy, so we can reassure tenants that by letting us gain access, they won’t have to pack up and leave. For those properties that are being sold to owner-occupied buyers, we also have the win-win solution: to help them with both the rent and the deposit to find an alternative rental property.

We go the extra mile to get tenanted properties sold, solve all problems, and to get the best prices and complete quickly. We’re there for landlords, sellers and tenants at every step, all the way through the process.

Is It Time To Sell Your Buy-To-Let Portfolio?

It’s a theme that’s becoming more and more common – if you were in any doubt, there’s absolutely no denying it, now is the time for us to sell up our property portfolios, cash in and retire while the market is still high, and before the window closes. Many of us have hit our fifties and sixties and have been in the landlord buy-to-let game for a while, but with the new legislations, EPC upgrades and tax changes coming into effect, it’s time to get out while the going is good and take away the pain and hassle that will come from holding onto the property machines that have served us for the last decade and counting.

Until now, none of us knew the best strategy, but it’s becoming increasingly clear there’s one company that landlords across the UK are turning towards to solve their problems. From £1 million to £10 million plus portfolios, portfolio expert specialists Landlord Sales Agency know exactly what it takes to deliver what you need: a big lump sum in the bank for an unbeatable 80% – 90% of the market value, fast, and the financial freedom to do whatever you want. A huge bang for your buck from the Formula 1 style team who will take it all off your hands in just 7 days.

This landlord sold her portfolio of 23 properties in one go, in less than a week

For Shauna, that’s exactly what happened when she reached out to us. Shauna had been in property for 30 years, and like many of us who’ve been keeping a close eye on the market, she’d decided that she wanted to sell off some properties. Back then, her initial strategy was to sell on the open market as and when the properties became empty, however the method didn’t work: taking her 8 years to sell just 14 in a long, drawn-out process.

After turning 60 this year she decided that now was the time to retire and needed a fast solution. She decided to sell 23 and keep 10. That’s when she contacted Landlord Sales Agency. She had looked around at other agencies to sell her portfolio, but none of them were able to sell so many in one go, all of them required her to break the portfolio down into smaller chunks, which she didn’t want to do.

She decided she wanted to get rid of 23 in one go.

She liked the idea of a quick sale. At every point of the process Landlord Sales Agency kept her up to speed and informed. In addition they said she could use her own solicitor which made her feel more comfortable and in control. As well as this LSA said that they would pay the solicitor fees which was a huge bonus. Straight away LSA had offers flooding in, and she was shocked to find a buyer who wanted to buy the whole portfolio for the exact price that she wanted. In her words “it was tremendous.”

“the whole team are so professional, you only have to pick the phone up and speak to them. 9 times out of 10 your team were phoning me to give me updates! I was thinking this is terrific. I didn’t have to worry, I didn’t have to do any work, it just went through really smoothly. I’ve got 10 left, and when I decide to sell them, which I will do, you’ll be the first people that I contact. I can’t praise you enough.”

Shauna – Landlord of 30 years

If you’ve been looking for a sign to sell, this is it. Pick up the phone and give us a call today – you could cash in quicker than you think.

How can selling property at 85 – 90% of their market value ever make the most sense financially?

You may have read the recent article on why a private Landlord with a property portfolio of 200+ buy-to-lets would choose to sell his properties for 80-90% of the market value. Now it’s time to hear from him in his own words.

When Alasdair decided it was the right time to scale back from his full time business of being a private landlord, he tried to sell his properties for 100% of the market value through traditional estate agents and treaty sales. However, through experience, he realised that the higher price he thought he was getting took far longer, increasing the amount of time that the properties stood empty before, during and after a sale, ultimately costing him more than accepting a sale at 85 – 90% of their value which only took 28 days. That’s when he turned to Landlord Sales Agency:

Alasdair is not alone. Across the UK landlords are looking to sell their property portfolios in full, so they can cash in and retire. With taxes, new regulations, and an uncertain economy, prices may never be this high again. The window to sell is closing, the time to act is now, and the team at Landlord Sales Agency have proven they can get the job done.

Sell your whole Property Portfolio in less than 28 days so you can cash in and retire, for higher prices than estate agents, and they’ll do all the work

Hour glass and calendar concept for time slipping away for important appointment date, schedule and deadline

It’s been an interesting time for landlords, as we’ve all been witness to the property market soar to record highs, and very rightly it’s caused many of us to think: Is now finally the time to sell my property portfolio and cash in?

Over the last decade a huge proportion of landlords have been enjoying rental yields from portfolios and HMO’s they’ve built up over the years, but if the eviction bans, high taxes, and constantly changing regulations have taught us anything, it’s that we’re finally at the crossroads where we want to take a big cash sum and retire without the hassle of managing a large property portfolio, letting agency or complex accounting. The question is, if we’re going to do it, when is the best time? And how can we ensure we get the highest price? With just two months to go until the end of the year, we’re probably not going to get a market this high for another seven years. It seems the answer is simple: the time is now.

Landlord Sales Agency specialise in assisting landlords sell tenanted properties; HMO’s, blocks of flats and portfolios. Established by co-founder of the National Association of Property Buyers and National Residential, David Coughlin, and private landlord Maz Saleem, our directors gained their status as industry experts from purchasing over 300 buy to let properties over the course of 15 years. From private portfolios, £1 million blocks of flats and HMOs to £10 million plus portfolios, we lead the way when it comes to enabling landlords to sell quickly and for the best price; we know first-hand what it takes to get the job done. Our strategy is simply based on an “any problem we can fix” mindset, coupled with an extensive network.

How you can sell your property portfolio fast

1. We have a database of over 30,000 buyers/investors and we send off-market alerts to those buyers to get properties sold quickest

2. We also have vast and strong B2B relationships with other companies who specialise in purchasing portfolios and HMO’s/blocks of flats – this minimises the need for viewings. Many buy without searches or surveys

3. We run a modern auction to create competition between our investor database and new buyers and investors we source from Rightmove and Zoopla. We run a bidding war to get the best price in an average of just 28 days

4. All purchasers pay 1% deposits (and sometimes buyers fees) and are chain-free and sign agreements to complete in 56 days. This is compared to traditional auctions that charge 10% deposits and have 14-28 day completions. The result is the smaller deposit and slightly longer timescale for completion means our auction achieves the same 95% completion rate as traditional auctions but often at much higher prices as it opens up the auction to those purchasing with finance

5. Our company’s culture is driven from the top-down to achieve the best price and fastest completion for sellers, along with the problem solving and drive to overcome every obstacle to get properties over the line. Every single issue is solved, even tenant issues, by working with incredible partners such as LandlordZONE to overcome any barriers that stand in the way.

We throw everything at it to get properties sold and completed. And because we’ve done it ourselves, no-one goes further to get it done for you too.

So if you’re interested in selling your property portfolio and cashing in, there’s no better time to do it than right now. Our experts are ready to help you.

Do you need help selling your property portfolio?

What are your options?

There are several options out there when it comes to selling, be it from private companies or larger portfolio sale outfits, and for those that think waiting might be the best option to get the highest price, you may even be tempted to list your portfolio with an Estate Agent. However despite what all these options promise, they’re unlikely to deliver what you need.

Most companies are unable to sell large portfolios in one go, they often need to break the properties down into chunks to sell to individual buyers. This can be frustrating as many of us are looking to get out fast, and with a clean, hassle free break. Then there’s Estate Agents: yes, they’ll get you 100% market value, but when you dismantle the strategy it doesn’t make economic sense: evict the tenants – which could take months, or even up to a year, then list each property one by one until the whole portfolio is sold – which brings with it a barrage of lengthy paperwork and time-consuming individual admin. We recently reported a landlord who attempted this and only ended up selling 14 properties over a whopping and painful 8 years. For that extra percentage value, the potential of lost income from the vacant properties while they’re on the market is very rarely worth it.

Landlords warn: “get out while you can” as increasing regulations make owning a property portfolio more costly than the profit

Over the last week an influx of Property118 landlords rushed to contact the team at Landlord Sales Agency – a company known for being experts in property portfolio exit strategies. The question wasn’t so much whether now was the time to sell our portfolios, but more how.

With so many properties on our books, the vast majority of us are looking for a solution to sell the whole portfolio in bulk, regardless of whether or not there are tenants still in the properties. For Shauna, a landlord of 30 years, selling straight away in bulk was crucial. Like many of us reaching our golden years, Shauna knew that the property portfolio she’d built up over the years was starting to become a financial ball and chain. It was obvious she needed to get out while she still could, but traditional Estate Agents and many private buy-to-let selling services just weren’t working. They either took years to sell, or required her portfolio to be split up into smaller chunks for sale. That just wasn’t an option, and so like many Property118 landlords she chose to place her trust in Landlord Sales Agency.

It makes sense: our property portfolios have become these machines we’ve built up over the years, which used to be creating a profitable monthly income but, when they stop doing that, the last thing we want is to then deal with the painful stress of managing the sale of the portfolio in painstaking ‘three properties at a time’ pieces, chunk by chunk. Selling the whole thing in one go might sound like a strategy reserved only for auctions who take a hefty percentage, but Landlord Sales Agency are specialists for a reason. We have a powerful database of over 30,000 buyers who want to buy whole portfolios and who are alerted every time we have a portfolio to sell. Because we focus on a quality fast sale, rather than a cheap fast sale, we ensure that our buy-to-let portfolios are sold not just fast, in less than 28 days, but for a extremely attractive 80% – 90% of the value. It’s a no-brainer deal when all landlords have to do is to call us. We take the whole thing off your hands and manage the entire sale in record speeds. There’s no one like us out there, and we’ve built up an unbeatable record for helping landlords. Most landlords who contact us are like Shauna, and we’ve got the best team in the business to get the sale done in days rather than months or years. For Shauna, she decided to keep 10 properties and give us 23. All of them were sold in one go within 5 days of listing. We don’t have to upsell our service, the results speak for themselves.

But why are so many landlords desperate to sell now?

And why are so many wanting to cash in and get out of the market? The answers are looking right at us, and it’s only getting worse:

1. The financials – interest rates are going up and inflation is about to go through the roof, which will have knock on effects on landlords on tracker mortgages

2. Section 24 taxation costs – landlords don’t know whether they can incorporate or may not have the ability to incorporate. The results are that landlords may end up paying more tax than they’re making in profits

3. Trying to sell your properties to solve some of these financial issues when you’ve got tenants in situ, some of them long term, is a problem for many landlords. Where do you turn?

4. Regulations – current regulations are costing landlords: rewires and refurbs. But there’s even more to come with EPCs and EICR which can cost £10,000 per property from next year

5.  Section 21 notices are coming in to make it more difficult to evict tenants, and without an eviction it’s harder to sell

6. House prices could drop as a result of inflation, it’s not worth the risk of waiting

7. As the cost of living increases, will tenants be able to afford the rents? Are we looking at a future with thousands of rent arrears?

It’s an overwhelming list, but it’s clear and present and becoming very real. It’s time to sell, and landlords like Shauna are making the right decision by getting out now.

Landlords making huge profits by selling before the stamp duty holiday ends in June

House prices are predicted to fall following the end of the stamp duty holiday. A study conducted by landlord insurance provider Simply Business found that over a quarter of landlords have already made the decision to reduce the size of their property portfolios. That number is set to increase as landlords cash in whilst they can still get the best prices before the 30st June.

With less than three months until we enter into an uncertain market, it’s clear that now is the perfect window to release the cash in your property portfolios and sell up. Experts and Landlord Associations alike are agreeing, there has never been a better time to sell your property portfolios than right now.
