He shares great content on how the process works and the paperwork the landlord needs to have in place. In the proceedings, the onus is on the landlord to prove the case so having the right information in place is vital.

David shares his perspective on repayment and interest-only mortgages and explains what his current strategy is.
With an interest-only mortgage over time inflation can come to your rescue and with the pandemic causing a massive shock to the economic system, some expert opinions say that it will be inflation that will ultimately eat away at the debt.
The value of property goes up over time, rents go up over time but in effect, the value of the mortgage is less over time meaning inflation could be the magic element for your property portfolio moving forward.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
I’m leaning towards inflation going up, I can’t see how it can do anything else
Asset inflation makes heroes of us all

Getting the numbers right is crucial to success in deal packaging.
In this episode, David discusses the fact that the majority of valuations he sees are incorrect and shares great succinct advice and tips on how to work on your valuation skills and get the numbers right.
If you can compare like with like, understand the sold comparables and accurately estimate refurbishment costs then you will be able to improve your valuation skills and get more deals.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
What can you do to improve your valuation skills?
You can only make comparisons with something that is similar
Where there are sold comparables look at a range, not just the best. The information is all available online so it will be checked through due diligence by the potential investor
If you want a yield driven valuation in the current market you need to be in an Article 4 area, it’s got to be 6-bed plus and preferably in a property that isn’t a family home set up.
It’s got to no longer flow as a family home due to the alterations made
You need to accurately understand and estimate the refurbishment costs especially with conversions to HMO’s
Make sure you compare like with like, work out from the sold comparables what you think a house is worth if there are any odd-looking numbers then highlight them
We work on an average of 6-10 thousand per room
Focus on the bricks and mortar family home values
BEST MOMENTS
‘An HMO has got to no longer flow as a family home due to the alterations made’
‘When there are a lot of pictures you can tell it’s a property that the owners are proud of’
‘You have to compare like with like’
