At Property Fit, we only source properties we would invest in ourselves. Typically 2 or 3 bed houses in Manchester, Liverpool or Birmingham. Terrace or Semi detached in established residential areas with high rental demand. These areas tend to be outside of the city centre.
There are 2 ways to finance a UK property investment.
1) Purchase the property with cash
2) Obtain a Buy-to-let mortgage which will typically be 65-75% of the purchase price, meaning that you will need 25-35% of the property value in cash.
With both finance routes there will also be other purchase costs such as legal fees, stamp duty, repair costs to get property into a lettable condition and sourcing agent fees.
With all of our properties, we will always add a £3k contingency for repairs. Some properties will require a bigger refurbishment than others; our viewing team will only select properties they feel will reach a high ROI, and this means some properties may require a refurbishment and others may not. If a property does require a refurbishment, we can connect clients to our sister company Bradwell Maintenance, who can take care of all your needs when it comes to refurbishment; from plastering and decorating to roofing and joinery, we can follow the full refurbishment process for your property. We can recommend, quote, and deliver the refurbishment work, and use trusted tradespeople to deliver the best possible service.
