FreshStart Living Unveils Top 5 Ways to Boost Property Investment Returns As Reasearch Reveals Buy To Let Landlords In The North Get The Highest Rental Returns

FreshStart Living Unveils Top 5 Ways to Boost Property Investment Returns As Reasearch Reveals Buy To Let Landlords In The North Get The Highest Rental Returns

FreshStart Living

(PRWEB UK) 20 April 2012

As research recently published showed that Northern buy to let landlords make higher rental returns, affordable property developer FreshStart Living has revealed the top 5 ways for investors to boost the returns on their property investment.

Buy-to-let lender Paragon revealed this week that landlords in the North West are making on average 6.6 per cent gross annual returns on their properties while those in London making around 5.9 per cent and 5.7 per cent in the city’s suburbs.

In response to this, FreshStart Living has revealed five ways for buy to let property investors to boost their returns.

1. If one property is a success, build up a portfolio.

Many investors decide to test the water with one property when they first start spending money, but when high rental demand is experienced and they realise the extra cash they could generate, they begin looking for more. Getting hooked on investment has to be a sensible decision ensuring that there is enough capital available to spend on bricks and mortar. However, if you have the disposable income building a well-crafted portfolio of properties could mean a bigger monthly income.

2. Buy low and experience high gains.

With companies such as FreshStart Living, buyers can purchase properties at well below the market value. By going straight to the developer and cutting out the middle man, investors are often able to get a better deal without the need for high service charges and commissions. The low cost of properties teamed with affordable rents will give any savvy investor the chance to generate income straight away.

3. Review rates of rent.

While tenants are attracted by low rates of rent that are below competitors’ prices, it may be a good idea to keep on top of trends in the market to see what others are changing every year. The fluctuation in housing costs and the price of living will mean that average rents will change year on year. Therefore, reviewing the amounts charged for rent could be wise for boosting those returns.

4. Shop around for different service providers.

When an annual utility contract has expired, why not shop around for deals that other gas and electric companies have on offer. It can often be the case that existing providers will carry on your contract without reviewing the rates. A quick comparison search with other firms could save you some much needed cash each month.

5. Invest and improve.

The best quality, most looked after and modern accommodations will attract tenants that are willing to pay for quality. As a landlord or investor of a buy-to-let property, it is important to maintain your properties to the highest standard, while undertaking regular inventories. A quick spruce up in between tenants will ensure a regular stream of people wanting to move in, giving you control of the rent you want to charge to meet the costs of the improvements.

Salford-based FreshStart Living is a specialist provider of affordable homes and student accommodation at developments from Greenock in Scotland through sites in its North West heartland to Bradford, Yorkshire and Nottingham in the East Midlands.

Founded in 2009 in response to the virtual standstill of residential development and growing need for affordable homes, the business specialises in transforming empty/underperforming buildings into affordable homes, and sells at ‘real prices’ to investor landlords.

Acquiring sites at below market value allows savings to be passed on to final purchasers – a business model that makes sense not only for FreshStart Living and its customers but also for end users.

UK investors and those from countries such as Dubai, China, Malaysia and mainland Europe have been attracted by FSL’s ‘below market value’ sales prices. Many first time property investors have also come into the market through FSL.

FSL is on target to sell 2,000 units for the financial year 2011-12 and has built a £60m gross development value (GDV) base across its developments. The business is predicting sales of between 2,500 and 3,000 units in the year to April 2013.

FreshStart Living has delivered more than 700 completions to date and is on target to deliver an additional 1200 units by April 2013. The business has a strong pipeline of sites worth in excess of £100m to be brought forward.

The business recently announced its intention to float on the Alternative Investment Market (AIM) of the London Stock Exchange (LSE) in 2012 (when market conditions are right) and appointed leading City broker Charlie Cunningham and former Spice plc group finance director Oliver Lightowlers as chief executive and chief financial officer respectively to lead its plans to publicly list a proportion of its shares.

Early Registration Benefits Announced For UK Zero Debt Property Investment Conference

Property Investment Strategist, Rick Otton

London, England (PRWEB) March 06, 2012

Otton’s methods for purchasing property without banks, mortgages and credit clearances, have been embraced by people in Australia, New Zealand, the USA, and the UK for decades. This new conference will include his famous “buy a house for a pound” system, along with new strategies for UK property investment in an economic climate that is filled with opportunties.

“On Day 1 we will be doing some groundwork” said Mr Otton. “I will explain what is meant by cash flow investing, why many property investors fail, and the basics of the rent to own process and lease options.”

Acquiring an understanding of these fundamentals, Otton believes, will create the mind-shift that is necessary for people to break away from the shackles that the banks have attached to real estate investing, notably, mortgages.

While his strategies easily stand on their own merits, Mr Otton is all about proof. So on Day 2 will have his past students share the spotlight.

“Hearing from real life people of their experiences in the buy-a-house-for-a-pound business model will illustrate how the man in the street is able to become a player in the UK property investment market” he explained. “They will share examples of transactions they have made using both rent to own and instalment contract strategies.”

Mr Otton’s training events have created a new, successful, debt-free, breed of real estate owners, and this conference, he says, will really turn the tables on the traditional lenders. On Day 3, he teaches his students how to “sky-rocket your income using instalment contracts”.

Early Bird Discount Revealed

For a very limited time only, discounted early-bird tickets to Rick Otton’s intensive 3 Day Zero Debt Property Cashflow Conference 2012 are available, will full details at http://www.rickotton.co.uk/conference

President of Buyer’s Edge Responds to Washington DC’s #3 Ranking for Real Estate Investment in AFIRE’s 2012 Annual Foreign Investment Survey

President of Buyer’s Edge Responds to Washington DC’s #3 Ranking for Real Estate Investment in AFIRE’s 2012 Annual Foreign Investment Survey

Betheda, MD (PRWEB) February 02, 2012

Washington DC was named one of the top global cities for foreign investment according to a recent survey released by the Association of Foreign Investors in Real Estate (AFIRE). The 20th Annual Foreign Investment Survey ranked Washington DC number three behind New York and London.”Washington DC real estate continues to be a stable environment for home prices,” says Steve Israel, President of DC based Buyer’s Edge,

“Foreign investors find Washington Metropolitan real estate inviting as the region has one of the highest levels of education and income per capita in the US, and many are within easy commuting distance of the city,” explained Steve Israel, President of Buyer’s Edge, an Exclusive Buyer Brokerage firm serving the Metropolitan Washington area. “With the Federal Government and all its contractors located in the area, the workforce is constant, and job growth is projected to be substantial over the next 20 years.”

For foreign investors, the cosmopolitan nature of the area is particularly inviting said Israel. “Representatives from different countries and working in different fields live in the area, providing a solid group of renters for housing and commercial spaces. In Bethesda, Maryland, for example, doctors and researchers from around the world who come to work at the National Institutes of Health (many on a long-term basis) end up renting in the area, providing a seemingly endless supply of great renters.”

While the DC area, like the rest of the U.S., experienced an explosion of property values beginning in 2002, it also experienced a slight downturn in 2008 (15% inside the Beltway) but has steadily rebounded at a calm moderate pace of 1.5 to 2.5%. “These numbers far outperform nearly every other market in the country, largely due to the steady job market in the region,” added Israel.

In contrast to top-ranked New York City, whose market is exclusively very expensive high-rise apartments and townhomes, the Washington DC, Maryland and Northern Virginia area offer a wide array of housing types and investment levels. “In DC,” explained Israel, “An investor can find inexpensive or very high-end condo options in downtown locations, semi-detached or attached row houses, retail and office options of all kinds and even fabulous single family detached homes across a wide price range.”

Commenting on current activity in the Washington DC real estate market, Israel said investors have been “very active” in areas close to Metro stops that were a “bit beaten up” by the downturn in 2008. “Many investors have been buying and holding onto single-family houses,” he explained. “Others have concentrated on buying DC condos in the core areas of the city.”

Israel recommends that anyone considering buying a home retain an Exclusive Buyer Broker who will only represent the buyer, not the seller of the property. “It’s important to look for someone who is serious about evaluating properties correctly and will consistently provide the in-depth research required to develop an accurate picture of the costs and potential returns for each property. Exclusive Buyer Brokers do not list homes for sale, so there is no conflict of interest,” he explained. “All our efforts are directed to finding the best houses, at the lowest price, on the best terms for the buyer.”

For more information, contact Steve Israel, Buyer’s Edge, 4919 Hampden Lane, Bethesda, MD 20814. Phone: 800-207-6810, Fax: 301-657-4494, e-mail: broker(at)buyersagent(dot)com or visit http://www.buyersagent.com.

A New Place To Park Your Money – Car Park Investment

A New Place To Park Your Money – Car Park Investment

Car Park Investment

(PRWEB) December 16, 2011

Experience International has just announced the exclusive launch of a new high yielding car park investment for individual and private investors.

The massive growth of property development in Business bay has led to a large demand for car parking space and in turn opened opportunities for investors to capitalize on this lucrative asset class.

As alternative investments go, car park investment has proven itself to be a reliable stream of income for the astute investor, with the International Parking Institute stating that the parking industry generated more than $ 20 billion annually in gross parking revenues.

Similar to commercial property investments location is essential, with many successful car park investments located in areas where the demand for parking spaces is greater than the current supply.

Dubai is an example of a city which, due to its levels of unprecedented growth, has fallen short in its supply of parking spaces.

According to a 2010 report conducted by Colliers International, average parking costs in Dubai increased by 20% in 2009 alone, with the firm forecasting that prices will continue to rise in line with cities such as Oslo, Perth and Stockholm which command $ 1,000 per month.

An overall lack of available parking spaces combined with an ever increasing amount of high-rise buildings without underground parking facilities had aggravated the issue, with a number of people now identifying key areas to create unique car park investments.

Due to the extreme humidity and heat there’s a strong demand for covered or underground parking facilities and, with 91% of UAE residents opting to use private transport according to a recent Regus survey, the need for parking is clear.

To answer the demand for parking spaces in Dubai, Experience International has exclusively launched its first car park investment in the city.

“Car parks are a low entry level proposition for investors, presenting a more affordable commercial real estate investment opportunity,” Steven Worboys, MD of Experience International comments. “Our exclusive Dubai car park investment is guaranteed to deliver 10% NET yields per annum for the first two years, rising to 12% by Year 5.”

Located in Dubai’s central business district, Business Bay, this unique car park investment will answer the demand from both commuters and residents. Due to a new $ 30 billion development to become a ‘city within a city’, experts have predicted that the population of Business Bay will soon exceed more than 300,000 including employers, employees and residents, further emphasising the need for parking.

Exclusive to the London-based investment house, Experience International can offer each car parking space for £26,000 (minimum purchase of 2 spaces). This pre-launch price is 25.71% below the recent RICS valuation of £35,000.

Sold on a 99 year long lease, investors can secure a guaranteed rental income for 4 years and benefit from a low deposit of just £495 per car parking space upon reservation.

For more information about this car park asset or to reserve a unit, please contact Experience International on 0207 321 5858 or email enquiries(at)experience-international(dot)co(dot)uk.
