Importance of Forecasting - Adam Lawrence

Have you heard people say things like "no one has a crystal ball" when it comes to what is going to happen in the market....

Well duh but as investors it is your job to forecast this as investing is about future income from the assets we invest in.

I welcomed back Adam Lawrence back to the show to discuss just how important forecasting is.

Not only has Adam bought over 400 properties in the last decade but he has a background in wealth management as well as being a fantastically educated investor.

We discuss;

How investing in Buy to let properties has changed over the last 20 years

Ways in which to add value to Buy to let investments.

How associated costs with buying a Buy to let property in a ltd company can add up.

How important capital values are for total returns.

How important time frames are when looking at investment opportunities

What we look for when forecasting.

Various metrics we use.

How illiquid property is and the positives and negatives of that when forecasting.

The different types of property markets based on location, property type and tenancy type.

How riding a market and beating a market are very different.

Comparing investment opportunities in terms of markets, industries and assets.

And lots more.

Big thanks to www.brickflow.com for sponsoring this episode. If you are looking for development finance I highly recommend them.Have lenders bid on to lend to you all in one place rather than approaching lots of different ones.
