  • Freehold to Leasehold Title Splitting
    Jun 17 2025
    Simon examines the innovative strategy of freehold to leasehold title splitting, a method that allows investors to create equity from existing properties. Building on the previous discussion of creative finance, the episode outlines how to identify opportunities in the property market where freehold buildings have already been converted into self-contained units. KEY TAKEAWAYS Understanding Freehold to Leasehold Title Splitting: This strategy involves purchasing a freehold property that has already been divided into individual self-contained units Investors can find suitable properties by searching platforms like Zoopla or Rightmove for larger properties (8 or more bedrooms) that have been split into individual units When evaluating potential investments, it's crucial to ensure that each unit is at least 30 square meters, has separate utility supplies (electric, gas, and water), and that the purchase price is less than 75% of the cumulative value of the individual units. Potential for Increased Value: By creating leases for the individual units, investors can significantly increase the property's value. For example, purchasing a property for £200,000 that can be valued at £300,000 after lease creation can result in £100,000 of equity. BEST MOMENTS "The freehold to leasehold strategy really is property magic, because you literally create equity from thin air." "It's very important that you find apartments or flats where they are fully self-contained and they do not have shared kitchens or shared bathrooms." "Most landlords who own these buildings never bothered to create the leases because they didn't need to." "This is an advanced strategy... I'm giving away this strategy on this live online training because I want to help you make more money."

  • Creative Investing
    Jun 9 2025
    Simon examines the concept of creative finance investing, emphasising strategies that allow investors to minimise their cash input while maximising returns. He covers historical methods of no money down investing, the importance of finding motivated sellers, and various creative strategies such as joint ventures, private loans, and the BRRR (Buy, Refurbish, Refinance, Rent) strategy. Simon also introduces the innovative freehold to leasehold title split strategy, explaining how investors can create significant equity through legal processes. KEY TAKEAWAYS Creative finance involves using minimal or no personal money in property deals, allowing investors to maximise the number of deals they can undertake and achieve high or infinite returns on investment. Investors can collaborate with others through joint ventures or private loans, where someone else provides the necessary funds for a deal, enabling the investor to acquire properties without using their own money. The BRRR (Buy, Refurbish, Rent, Refinance) strategy allows investors to buy properties below market value, add value through renovations, and then refinance to recover their initial investment, often resulting in a positive cash flow and equity. Successful property investing relies on identifying motivated sellers who are flexible on price and terms. Understanding their problems and offering win-win solutions can lead to favourable deals. BEST MOMENTS "Creative finance is where we use as little of your money as possible. And why is that a good thing to do? Well, it means that you can do as many deals as you want." "If you believe you can or can't, you're absolutely right. And one of the ways to build your belief is by learning what other people are doing." "You can take control of the property... and in the meantime, you rent the property from the owner. This is great for a seller who really doesn't want the property anymore." "When you buy a freehold property, if you create the leases on the individual properties within that block, the cumulative value is often more than you can actually buy the block for."

  • Understanding Deal Sourcing
    Jun 2 2025
    Simon delves into the world of property deal sourcing, offering valuable insights for both aspiring deal sourcers and seasoned investors. He covers the importance of finding great property deals, the criteria for identifying reliable deal sourcers, and the essential compliance measures they should adhere to. You will learn how to assess the quality of deals, the significance of having clear buying criteria, and the benefits of networking within the property investment community. KEY TAKEAWAYS Deal sourcing involves finding investment properties for those who may have the funds but lack the time or expertise to locate good deals themselves. It can be a lucrative opportunity for both investors and aspiring deal sourcers. When looking for a deal sourcer, investors should assess their recent deals, training background, whether they keep some deals for themselves, and their compliance with industry regulations, such as membership in the Property Redress Scheme and registration with the ICO and HMRC. Investors should be cautious of deal sourcers who request upfront payments to find deals. Instead, it's advisable to pay a reservation fee for specific properties once they are identified, ensuring that the investment is based on tangible opportunities. Both investors and deal sourcers need to conduct thorough due diligence. Investors should clarify their buying criteria to act quickly on good deals, while deal sourcers should vet potential investors to ensure they are financially capable and serious about purchasing properties. Currently, there are more sellers than buyers in the market, creating opportunities for both investors and deal sourcers. Engaging in deal sourcing can be a profitable venture, especially for those willing to put in the effort to find and pass on quality deals. BEST MOMENTS "If you're finding great deals that you don't want, instead of wasting those, why not pass them on to other investors and either get paid a fee for that." "A good deal sourcer will have a one-page summary of each deal they found saying why it is a good deal." "If you are selling property to someone, unfortunately, a lot of people use property as a way of laundering money." "My very strong recommendation is do not pay anyone any money up front to find you deals." "Finding deals that you don't want and passing them on to other people is a great way to make extra money."

Rehashed old tactics that just won't work nowadays. This was probably very useful when it originally came out but you get better free content on YouTube now.
