It’s been a roller coaster few months from first viewing this beautiful old house in August, having an offer accepted and then with lots of complications, finally it completed.

This is a joint venture, hence the new business name, but Helen Warman and I share the same values when it comes to business, i will be taking care of the day to day running of the re-development, whilst Helen concentrate on the end product, as this will become Coppergate Mews Serviced Accommodation GRIMSBY, offering serviced apartment accommodation for the region

Planning is already in and we really want to make this into something spectacular. I will be working with my industry professionals to ensure we future proof this building and offer a sustainable choice for our corporate clients

Lots of THANKS YOU’s to come but for now its cheers with more that a cup of tea ☕️ (builder brew strength)

Have a great

So after long discussions with Gareth Ashman this week we have had offer accepted on property number 4!
💥4 bed 3 storey house
We will be turning this into a 6 bed hmo
We have worked closely with the local agent who is now ringing us with deals
3 of these deals are with this agent

More details to follow
Did I hear someone say you can’t find deals in this hot market?!

Oops! We did again.

Sounds a bit odd but almost accidentally agreed a deal today. 🤷🏻😮🤯
House already been reduced from 130 to 115. DUV 160.
Gareth Ashman and I not overly bothered about it but put cheeky offer in of 100.
Agent said no chance, mortgage is way more than that. Well I said, 105 would be absolute max anyway so we’re no way near.
Ten min later agent rang back. Offer accepted! Eh? How did that happen?! 🤯🤯😀
That’s 3 deals going through in the last 6 weeks!
Good job we’ve got ideas for how it’ll work.
Happy humpday everyone!

C O M P L E T E D… finally! 🙂

After almost 4 months in legals we finally completed today on the sale of this beauty.

Following a slow buying process, on and off renovation and painful sales process it’s almost 18 months since we first viewed it.

That said the numbers are very positive with a pre-tax profit of around £50k!!

Little celebration tonight.
Bring on the chocolates! 🙂

Happy Friday all with Gareth Ashman

Morning all
So this is our 4 bed hmo that’s just been cleaned ready for new tenants moving in
4 contractors working local and on a 7 year work contract
We may need to put them on our Christmas card list
Should cashflow around £800 a month
We got a few things wrong regarding the refurb costs and tradesmen who we had in so ROI isn’t brilliant but we play the way we are facing and keep going
Cashflow is good for a 4 bed and long term tenants
Just waiting for the next one we are buying to complete
Happy weekend

Evening guys
So this is the scene of my regular local parkrun that I do on Saturday mornings
I have been doing this on and off since 2015
Every week I try to beat my previous weeks time even if it’s just by 1 second at a time
But as time went by and my body aged I found it harder to keep up with myself to the point where I gave up going as I didn’t enjoy it
Then lockdown came along and parkrun stopped aswel
Here’s where the mindset change came in
Realising that I don’t have to beat my previous times anymore it’s more about getting round and staying the course
That mindset is the same in property
You don’t have to rush and you don’t have to be the best at it
But what you do is run your own race and as long as you stay in the game you will still get where you want to be

So after a couple of months of been grilled by a potential investor about what we do and how it all works and how safe would there money be we finally put one to paper on another investor happy to get a great return.
It’s like an encore from completing another property we got keys for last week

F O R S A L E !!! 🙂
After 8 weeks of hard graft the bungalow is finished and looking shiny and new.
New electrics, new central heating, new plaster, smart kitchen, modern shower room, re-insulated, French doors and a sun trap garden.
Very pleased with this one going to make an amazing home after several years empty.

Well the saying manic Monday is an understatement
Today we got keys for not 1 but 2 properties!😊
One is for a BTL and the other is a JV on a 5 bed HMO
Looking forward to getting stuck into these 2
