A student buy to let company approached us asking to help with their portfolio purchase in Leeds and since then all I have heard is how the investor looking for high returns is looking again at residential as the way forward, with the RICS quoting in excess of 6% yields for rental properties in Yorkshire.
Our expertise is showing the property investor the extent of works required to make the property habitable for tenants. The Homebuyer Report is perfect for helping clients form an investment opinion given the amount of work required to get it let.
The investment market is so large that we decided to target it fully. To encourage investors to be more prudent and get the right advice we decided to offer discounts for multiple survey requests. And why not, as an investor, if you bought more than one property from a seller, wouldn't you expect a discount?
The trouble with property investment is who do you listen to? The estate agent; they want to sell you a house, the bank; they want to sell you a mortgage, the solicitor; they want you to pull out or take out an insurance policy, the letting agent; they want a regular 12.5% fee, the Government; they want, well lots. THE CHARTERED SURVEYOR, the one you can trust for impartial and honest advice. And if the survey says you are paying too much, then it may save you thousands.
Even if you don't use E Surveyors to find you a RICS regulated Chartered Surveyor, please take professional advice and find one at www.ricsfirms.com
Good Luck with your investment, I am sure you know exactly what you are doing.
