This week, Simon talks you through the six key signposts you need to watch for in order to recognise a good deal in property.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
Look for properties with instant equity. If you can find a motivated seller and gain yourself some instant equity, you're already in profit.
Make sure you only buy properties in areas where there is strong rental demand. You want to be able to rent it our quickly in order to minimise void periods.
Look for properties in which you can add value. If you can't add value yourself, then you're relying on the market to add value.
Endeavour to make the best return upon your investment that you can. This is calculated by looking at the annual profit divided by the initial investment required.
BEST MOMENTS
'A lot of people out there don't really know what makes a great deal'
'If you can buy at a discount, it means you have equity on day one!'
'It's not about getting a discount on the asking price - it's about getting a discount on the value of the property'
'There must be profit left over after the end of every month'
