Thanks everyone for taking the time to reply, I think I'm armed with everything I need to know now. I am an experienced landlord (never done a split before though) but because of recent changes I've culled my portfolio with...

I've had tenants "personalise" my properties before. Dark paints on the nice, light and bright kitchen cupboard doors. Black skirting boards. Deep blue walls. No wonder people are feeling depressed when they make the place a dark, awful hole. Another...

Just like they solved it in Ireland, Scotland, New Zealand, Australia and America.

Reply to the comment left by Jo Westlake at 10/02/2025 - 13:00Hi Jo. The figures you gave for the 6 bed HMO seem very low. Can you confirm that's correct? You said about £2700 total for gas and electric which...

Thanks. I think I'll give them a try for the last year I'm in this game. Last one is going next year to the man who lives there when my fixed term is up. Have an agreed price we are...

I have considered iHowz before after my displeasure with the NRLA. What's your experience with them (iHowz)? Selling to the council would be a win, win all round if the sales would be CGT exempt. We could always buy them...

"Baroness Taylor also confirmed that councils WILL have powers to enter a business and possibly a landlord’s home and rental property to ‘gather evidence where required’." Powers to "enter a landlords home" Seems KGB-esque to me. You'd have to be...

"Mansfield says there will be three check-ins during the first six months, focusing on tenancy management and promoting direct rent payments." Councils in England struggle to manage consistent and regular waste collections. Let's not get started with how they manage...

Reply to the comment left by Steven F at 30/01/2025 - 10:55The rough figures and advice I gave are based on outright purchases. A simple example of a slightly more advanced strategy is to buy well and add value through...

Honestly, I'd look else where. It isn't passive and it isn't easy. Depending where you are in the country an actual yield of roughly 5 percent net is what you'll achieve. I can't speak for every area but from my...

Really? If I had 10 vacant properties I could fill them without even advertising. I have that many wanting a place. This is at prices I've never achieved before. I am concentrated in a single area though so can't speak...

That campaigning the NRLA did on our behalf went really well. Thanks Mr Ben Beadle. No mention of you by the chancellor, I noticed Shelter was mentioned though.

Reply to the comment left by John Docherty at 22/06/2024 - 12:55And Labour and the Tory's are serious? Jacob Rees Mogg has actually said Farrage has stolen his best ideas. People are saying the Reform manifesto is a Tory one...

Everyone saying Farrage is a lier and just saying things to get in power... Haven't Labour and the Conservatives been doing this for the last 100 years? The Tory's partying during covid while people couldn't be with their terminally ill...

Said it on the other news article yesterday... They are talking more sense than any party I can remember. I'll be voting Reform.

A bit disappointing is an understatement. They are red dressed in blue. I cannot, in good faith, vote for such an outfit that has introduced such rules and regulations for landlords.

Reply to the comment left by Reluctant Landlord at 17/06/2024 - 17:51Personally I think you are wrong and here's why: The will of the people is a powerful thing. Don't let anyone fool you you're vote will be wasted by...

Reply to the comment left by Ray Davison at 17/06/2024 - 17:27Exactly what I've been saying! A large vote share, even if it doesn't translate to a single seat will ensure your vote isn't wasted! It won't "put Labour in...
