Hi I did some marketing of a rental on GumTree and was approached by 2 separate parties asking if I was interested in Company Rental. Rent to rent model I guess. Has anyone got experience (good or bad) from this? Thanks Would you consider for a company let ? We offer rent and deposit upfront and free maintenance included during the minimum of 12 months contract . would you be interested in letting your property as a company let for 3 years? The company will pay full rent and all bills, and let it to local working professionals on a weekly to monthly basis . The property would be cleaned 2 times per week, and all low maintenance issues taken care of.

Would be interested to hear from solicitors on this - and what you mean by low cost - I have been quoted about 50% of full fee for the review of the particulars pre-sale; this to me is a prohibitive cost given the risk of not securing the property

I'm not a lawyer but if you've served notice, they've not paid rent (key point) and they've left the property, I would think you're within your rights to change the locks.

Does anyone have any experience/tips for securing property listed for auction before the auction date? Looking at property for BRR and auction lots look good, but I am not keen to outlay solicitors costs only to be outbid.

Hi All, What method do you use to calculate the margin on a flip when deciding whether or not to proceed? I've had a look around and seems like the standard method is take the sale price and take a percentage of that, so for example on a £400k sale if my target margin is 20% then I need to be buying and refurbing the property for £320k. In today's market this seems impossible. Even a 10% margin seems highly unlikely. Thoughts/advice much appreciated

Thanks Derek!

Hi Does anyone have any tips for finding properties in need of refurb, other than auction sites? Scrolling the main property portals takes a lot of time because there are so few that are not in need of work. Just wondered if anyone has any tips Thanks
