If you want your tenant to look after your rental property correctly, it’s unfortunately not enough to rely on them knowing every letter of the law around their responsibilities.

EP 138: THE WEALTH CREATION SHOW: The Financial Freedom Blueprint
There are many different models of buy-to-let, but a proven winning formula is buying a property in need of renovation, upgrading the specification, then releasing the increased equity to fund another buy-to-let project.
Homes in need of work cost less to buy, which immediately reduces the cost of Stamp Duty/LBTT. And when you’re not paying for somebody else’s taste, you can add value by updating the interior and identifying untapped potential.
Do you want to find suitable homes to renovate, know how to get the specification right, and having the finance in place for the purchase and works?
Luckily, you don’t need to head back to school to understand this as Lettings Director, Richard Cook and one of the UK’s most successful property investors, Jim Parker are on hand to discuss.
