Helping An Investor Decide Where To Invest, How To Raise Finance & If A Commercial Valuations Is Realistic

In this episode, we're shaking things up a bit on the show as I'm joined by Matt Lester.

Matt, a property investor and a member of The HMO Community, our thriving Facebook group, eagerly volunteered to participate in a mini mentoring session with me. He sent over three questions, and I'll do my best to provide valuable insights to help him with his HMO property business.

During the mentoring session, we tackled these questions:

• Are HMOs more challenging to execute in the South of England?
• What level of value uplift is required for the refinancing and scaling model to be effective?
• How can first-time investors obtain commercial valuations?
• What criteria should one consider when sourcing potential HMO areas?
• How can one determine if an area is family-friendly and unsuitable for HMOs based on council preferences?
• Do HMOs with seven or more occupants require seven parking spaces, or can proximity to transportation options suffice?
• Tips for approaching friends, friends of friends, and family members who might be suitable investors.

By addressing these questions, we aim to equip listeners with practical advice and strategies to start and scale their HMO property business.
