£500 Plus Per Month Cashflow From a Buy to Let!

£500 Plus Per Month Cashflow From a Buy to Let!

#185

Buy to Let is dead! You must have heard people saying that right? 

You may even have heard it on here before. 

It’s been strangled it to death by inflation, higher interest rates and less than favourable legislation. 

But what if I told you there’s a way to make north of £500 per month from a property costing not insignificantly more than 100K with fewer of the expenses, voids and maintenance issues that would come from an HMO?

Would you be interested?

Well, that’s what this week’s show will let you know!

Raj Beri is the co-editor of YPN magazine and has aportfolio of  HMOs and single lets in Nottingham. He has been  following the LHA strategy for 12 years in Nottingham and has seven properties adopting this approach. He has recently started exploring a new area for his model: Leeds.
