About this listen
Across the UK, more and more people are choosing to live in houses of multiple occupation - a house where tenants have their own private bedrooms and share the other facilities communally. The market is growing, and so, too, are the demands of tenants. If you are a property investor or landlord, you might be wondering how to develop an HMO so that it is profitable, well managed, and well maintained.
This book is a handy guide to help you quickly and efficiently learn some tricks of the trade and apply them in your chosen HMO location. All the tips in the book have been implemented, tested, and refined through repeated processes. They will enable you to create a well-managed, profitable, professional HMO and free up your time in no time!
Using the knowledge in this book, you will be able to create a systemized business that runs even when you're not there. This book is focused on the professional HMO market, but many of the tips can easily be applied to other sectors of the market, such as LHA (local housing allowance) and student HMOs.
The book is split into five sections: Find It, Fund It, Finish It, Fill It, and Future-Proof It. Each section contains tips large and small - some short and sweet and some that are more in-depth. All of the advice will be useful if you are developing for the professional HMO market and could save you thousands of pounds and hours of worry, giving you time, money, and freedom as a result.

From the outside, being a landlord may look like an easy job. Once a month you greet your tenants, collect rent from them, and leave. Being a landlord is not as simple as it seems. Just like tenants have their share of responsibilities, so do you as their landlord and property manager. For first-time landlords, all of this can be very overwhelming.

Story
In my youth, I never thought I could own any property, let alone more than one. When I started my real estate business, I had no idea what to do or where to begin. I didn’t even know there were so many paths to consider. I wish I had someone guided me through the beginning stages of learning how to get into real estate. Years later, I’m happy to provide the shortcuts I wish I had known to get started. Now I’m making the income I never thought I could, and I’m now financially free to work when and how I want. The only regret I’ve ever had is wishing I had started sooner.

No matter how great you are at finding real estate deals, you could lose everything if you don’t manage your properties correctly. However, being a landlord doesn’t have to mean middle-of-the-night phone calls, costly evictions, or daily frustrations with ungrateful tenants. Being a landlord can be fun - but only if you do it right!
