In this week's show, Simon talks about how you can find property deals during lockdown, and through this unprecedented time of uncertainty. As Simon discusses, there are still deals to be found, and in this episode, he'll tell you how.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Viewing properties has become slightly more difficult, but the market is still open, and will remain so, unlike during the first lockdown.
After the first lockdown, a stamp duty holiday was introduced, meaning that 2020 saw a property boom as sellers sought to take advantage. This ends in March, and estate agents are now actively seeking other ways to sell.
Estate agents are a fabulous source of deals, but they must be approached in the correct way. It's about reversing the perception that investors are time wasters, and that they only make low offers.
The five questions you need to ask estate agents are:Have you had any deals fall through due to COVID-19?
Do you have any empty properties?
Do you have any properties listed as "Cash Buyers Only"?
Do you have any properties with more than one agent involved?
Do you have any properties listed for sale and for rent?
BEST MOMENTS
'It's a really good time to reach out to estate agent to secure deals'
'There are five specific question you can ask in order to get them to think in a different way'
'All sellers want is peace of mind and certainty'
'All of these issues can be fixed with a bit of time'
