Episode notes
Audit Your Financial Starting Point
- Assess your finances: total savings, debts, and disposable cash before investing.
- Check equity in existing properties and consider professional advice before using home equity.
Mortgage Can Be Productive Leverage
- Mortgages on buy-to-let are often classed as 'good debt' which can be leveraged to expand.
- Higher LTVs are possible but bring more expensive rates, so weigh cost versus equity access.
Match Strategy To Your Skillset
- Include your skills and expertise in your property plan to choose suitable strategies.
- Use hands-on trade experience to your advantage, and avoid projects that need skills you lack.
