KEY TAKEAWAYS
Negotiation Strategies: When contacting landlords or agents, it's crucial to gather specific details about the property, such as the address, rental price, and any unique features.
Understanding Lease Options: A purchase lease option allows a potential buyer to agree on a sale price today while renting the property for a set period.
Corporate Lets and Profit Potential: Renting properties as corporate lets can significantly increase rental income. For example, a property that rents for £2,500 per month to a private tenant could command £3,000 or more from corporate clients, allowing for substantial profit margins.
Importance of Location: Central London properties, particularly in zones one and two, tend to yield higher rental income and occupancy rates. Conducting thorough research on local market conditions and occupancy rates is essential for maximizing profitability.
Building Relationships with Agents: Establishing a good rapport with agents and landlords can lead to more opportunities. If a deal is successful, it can result in referrals and future business, making it beneficial to maintain positive relationships in the property market.
BEST MOMENTS
"I'm looking to rent somewhere long-term, maybe for two or three years. It could be longer. Would that be possible?"
"I can ask that. So, let me just write a few things about you."
"I have a lot of interest in this already and I'm doing views tomorrow."
"The reason I'm looking for that is would you happen to know whether the landlord would be interested in maybe selling their property to me in the future?"
"I mean, I've got properties that have potentially come up for sale. I'm looking at selling some properties anyway."
