This was very cool! Would really like to see a video from you about how you get the building team together and project manage. Thanks for all the good info!
Thanks for the idea! The build team will be quite small on this one, I think most of it we'll do ourselves! Just mainly carpets, paint, the kitchen and bathroom are quite small and easy to do. Should help keep costs down!
Hi Matt, thanks for posting these. Really interesting to see how you started your investment career. I have a question - is this your first property or do you already have a residential mortgage? Did you use bridging finance or start off with a buy to let?
Already had a residential property, this was first investment one. I did consider doing it on a bridge but decided against it and instead locked the money into a 2 year fixed mortgage and paid the refurb in cash. So I'll refinance it in a year (1 year in now) and pull out the cash after it's had time to go up in value
Are you working on a renovation project at the moment? Let me know what you're up to!
So glad I found your channel, this is instructive and very entertaining!
Thanks! hugely appreciate it - looking forward to releasing the full series over the next few weeks when the refurb gets going
@@MattBrighton ex-ci-ting! Hope that everything goes smoothly ^^
Thanks for sharing. How did you find this property?
Love the concept ideas! Looking forward to see how this one turns out! 🙂 Good luck
Thanks! Can’t wait to get the keys and start documenting it
Would love a live walkthrough before you start the renovations
Defo in the list! Hopefully will get the keys in the next few weeks

Defo a good one to show the project management side!

@@MattBrighton Thanks.
Great project, well done fetching it!
Thank you very much! Can't wait to get started and properly document it
How did u simulate the rooms and the plan for the house?
floorplanner.com :)
Your videos are great Matt, keep it up! 💪
Glad you like them!
cool,did you make the model yourself?
Yep! On floorplanner, it was very easy and very helpful for the project - I had a great idea of what was needed before stepping foot into it
Brilliant,you’re channel is very informative!!,do a video on bridging finance and the numbers behind it(interest,exit fee,valuation fee )etc please
where are you editing this? ( do reply) it looks so good.
The software is called floorplanner :)
@@MattBrighton keep up the good work! Hope to see you grow in the near future.
£1250 to fit a bathroom? Who are you using? When I tried to fit mine they told me minimum starting price was £3k
Fit myself. Super, super easy. Then just got trades in for electircs and plastering
Did you take this on an interest only mortgage?
Still in progress but will be interest only!
Which area/town is this property in?
@@tchi9endaz up in South Yorkshire where my hometown is
Maybe I missed it… but where is it?
It's up north in a town outside of Sheffield, close to where I have family and friends :)
