I love being direct to the Landlord; however, if you want to scale your Rent to Rent property business, you will need to learn how to deal with landlords and agencies. In this episode, we will focus on getting deals by approaching Landlords directly. If you want to find out more about building relationships with agents, listen to my recent podcast episode #30.

I know there is a lot of fear around approaching letting agents; however, we have to be aware that Letting Agents have the majority of the properties, and generally the best properties. They have a marketing machine, and they are trusted and established. I love being direct to the landlord, but it is just one deal unless it's a portfolio landlord. I have Letting Agents that have now provided me with several deals; one agent really can make your business.

During COVID, occupancy rates were reasonable, but they did slip at times. The larger your portfolio gets, the more complicated and more challenging it feels to fill the rooms.

Article four directions are legal means by which a local authority can require property owners to seek permission to convert a single dwelling house into a small HMO. In other words, normally, in a non-article four area, you can apply for an HMO licence on any property. 

In an article-four area, you have to get planning permission, and you have to change the use of the property before you can apply for the HMO license. 

The first consideration needs to be property stock. First, you need to find out if there are suitable properties to-let. For example, if there are many properties available that can indicate how motivated a landlord will be and if there is an opportunity for you to help.

A BRRRR is when you're buying the property, refurbishing and refinancing. Some people like to include renting the property and recycling the cash, which is why there could be three, four or five Rs!

The BRRRR model is, buying the property, refurbishing the property, re-financing and then renting out the property. It's an extremely powerful model, for example, you could have a lump sum to buy one property, £50,000 - £70,000, typically you would be able to buy one property. Then you would need to save up to by the next one, but that takes a very long time.

In this episode, I will be breaking down the BRRRRR strategy, approaching this type of deal, and getting a house for free because that's the holy grail. If you manage to execute this strategy correctly, you will be able to go again and again and again. The majority of the money I make from my Rent-to-Rent portfolio I reinvest into cash-flowing assets through the BRRRRR strategy. I am making sure that my money is working for me, creating recurring income for today and the future. 

This podcast episode is dedicated to the BRRR strategy. I specialise in Rent-to-Rent; however, I'm very strategic in how I spend the money I earn from my Rent-to-Rent properties. You need to be careful about how you spend your money. It's my personal belief that you should re-invest that money into assets. Once you have re-invested your money into assets, and those assets start to make money, then you can go ahead and spend the money as you wish.

I wanted to focus on goal settings during this episode, and more specifically, why you should be setting 90-day goals for 2021. Traditionally people like to set big goals, for example, I want this house or this car. People often struggle to set timestamps, or if they do it will usually be annual.

I genuinely believe that there is a key factor to become wealthy and financially secure. You need to diversify, diversifying your income to not rely solely on working for money. You need to find ways to make your money work for you, making sure you are compounding your efforts and taking advantage of compounding interest.
