Love the videos, Ahmed. Would it make sense to start on an interest only mortgage for the first 5 years, then change to repayment to start perishing over time? This way, the rent would likely be higher than the stress test following 5 years of rent increases.
Thanks a lot Ahmed for all the value you have giving and inspiration for me to start the property investment journey!!! What permission do I need for turning a 1 bed flat to a 2 bed flat? (It’s my first time doing this- pls see details below)- also any other tips? I’m buying a 1 bed flat (on the second floor) to turn into the 2 bed flat. It’s a leasehold with a part of free hold. There are in total 6 flats in my block. Thanks a lot in advance!
@@ThatAhmedKhan have you ever had an issue with the freeholder refusing to allow you? I currently have a flat that I got which is owned by a housing association and want to turn it into a 1 bed from studio not sure if I should contact the freeholder
Hello Ahmed, Your videos are very insightful and I have learned a lot from watching them! I'm currently a university student soon starting my last year and I'm trying to learn as much as possible about the world of property before the end of my degree so that I'm prepared with all the knowledge required to succeed. I am currently working for a property management company so I can get further insights into property management. What would you recommend to someone in my position? Are there any courses I should be looking at? Any networking events I should be going to? The more advice the better! Thank you, Malek
@@ThatAhmedKhan your courses were some of the first I watched on my journey to develop my knowledge. I've watched all 4 courses and have re-watched the 11hr a couple times.
Hi Ahmed, thinking about replicating your 1 to 2 bed BRR strategy in London. How do you think the strategy has changed/ is there any adaptations that might have to be made now compared to when you did it a few years back?
@@ThatAhmedKhan in your course you mention a load of criteria like not being above shops, or max 5 floors for ex council buildings. Is there a comprehensive list of these rules, and are they hard and fast or contextual. Spoke with an agent who said although a flat was above shops, many had been sold in the same building without mortgageabilty issues. Thanks !
Hey Ahmed, so I have a ? Do you have a video or information on how to add rooms to a property… ie if I buy a studio/1bed and want to add a room via your strategy with the open plan living/kitchen…. Would I need planning permission before purchasing the property? How would I be able to go to banks and explain to them it’s now a 2 bed from 1 bed…. I’ve looked at a studio in Romford area and a 1 bed flat in hillingdon both with easy potential space for an additional room. My only fear was the leaseholder and planning….
I believe u would need the managing agents permission. Also u can call the council and ask them directly if planning permission is required. I doubt it though. Just the block's managing agents who will be acting on behalf of the landlord.
@@marissakeynes2532 thanks for this, so as long as I have the leaseholders permission then I’ll be able. I guess I could also ask the council too for permission :)
@@HassanAli-sc4tn I read in the comments in one of his other videos where 2 investors had bought 1 bed flats but were denied permission by the landlord to turn them into 2 beds despite claiming that they followed Ahmed's steps to a T in how they presented their plans. Unless he explains the risks and not just the gains, I would not do it. On paper what he does sounds pretty straightforward but in reality it doesn't.
I have watched so many of your videos ❤❤❤
Love them all
Good as always! Thank your

You normally need 'Freeholder consent'. If you're part owner of the freehold, this should be easier
Great rules thank you
Brilliant!
Great video, when turning a flat from a 1 bed to a 2 bed, do you need to notify the landlord of these changes ?
He's doing this when he owns the flat freehold I believe
@@daver9571 you can never own a flat freehold, you can own a share of the freehold but I’m 99% sure most of the time he’s just buying the lease
I'm buying the lease and then getting freeholder consent

Hey! I’m in a similar position, maybe we can help each other out? Do you have IG?!
Have you watched my free courses?

I would keep it the same tbh, not much has changed except the potential cashflow

Are we able to turn a house into flats with permitted development now?
Not yet, I don't think
Nice work bro
Wasting time with UK taxes and that’s before big bad labour come in, can do much better elsewhere these days
Depends
Where?
Taxes are less of an issue in a limited company + there are longterm benefits of the uk property market
