Reply to the comment left by Darren Peters at 24/01/2021 - 19:28Depend what you call cheap I guess. If you invest £50k and a year of emails back and forth to get the lease extended and after that the property...

Thanks for the message JOGL. I would have 75% loan to value and do intend to do as you suggest and wait it out on the basis of a better outcome after the new legislation comes in. I too will...

Reply to the comment left by Andrew Miller at 23/01/2021 - 10:37Thanks Andrew, Yes I am glad I have started to think about this now whilst time is still on my side. I do have a couple of contacts that...

Hi Amjed, Yes I agree but I am not sure my area is the best for rent to buy as we have a very transient renting population. We are a population of many different nationalities here and it is common...

I have really created this post to get other experienced landlords views on my exit plan. Had some good information to suggest waiting on further lease extensions would be wise if I can afford the wait. I am definitely going...

Reply to the comment left by Paul Shears at 21/01/2021 - 06:37Hi Paul, My remark was a bit tongue in cheek. I mean that with my financial planning I don't need to consider leaving money to children etc as I...

Reply to the comment left by at 20/01/2021 - 16:55Hi Helen, Yes agree with all of that. Keep it small and simple. I also think once you are mortgage free you are untouchable to some dishonest new rule or tactic...

Yes it is a brain teaser spin of the wheel decision. I have several options I could take but it is a case of finding out all the options and then understanding them and then risk assessing. I do think...

Reply to the comment left by Peter G at 20/01/2021 - 13:06If Capitol gains were a kinder animal then i would like to sell all of my properties and buy a building that could be converted into 4 flats. That...

Reply to the comment left by Mark Weedon at 20/01/2021 - 12:46Well I am thinking as I get older I will want less responsibility. But also I have an obsession to clear finance so I would rather have three flats...

Reply to the comment left by Tim Rogers at 20/01/2021 - 12:05Yes i would be open to do that as an option as we have no children and therefore no real considerations towards inheritance. The problem is that I owe...

Reply to the comment left by at 20/01/2021 - 11:30I am in Bournemouth which is a great area to have BTL in but often a very transient population. My longest tenant is very old, and then next two longest are...

Reply to the comment left by Laura Delow at 20/01/2021 - 11:33Thanks for this. How sure is it that these changes could become law within three years? The freeholder here is difficult so any loophole and he will start jumping....

Thanks for this. I need to research this more. I had heard something of this but thought the timeframe would be too shaky for me. I have seven years left on the mortgages of the flats on low leases and...

Reply to the comment left by Neil Patterson at 07/02/2020 - 08:32Very sad to read this. I didn't know this man personally but i read the Appalled Landlord articles. They were well written and passionate and from someone willing to...

Dave Stanger. I agree. Use the rules and procedures that work best for you. Many landlords are pre programmed that they must have a deposit but all in all it is a hassle and in my opinion not fit for...

Reply to the comment left by John McKay at 06/11/2019 - 09:43I agree. Shelter, in my opinion, is a scam to the British public and should be stopped. The very name of Shelter suggests the very thing they do not...
