KEY TAKEAWAYS 

 

No Money Down Investing Tools 

Lease Options - This is where you would pay a small consideration upfront to secure a contract that agrees on the purchase price today but is paid for over a period of time. This is similar to the model of car leasing except that your asset appreciates in value over time and you can add forced value over time by renovating the property. This tool allows you to make a profit from day one by renting out the property to cover your mortgage/payment costs.  

 

Vendor Finance - The easiest person to joint-venture with is the vendor of the property you’re looking to purchase. It’s a simple tool that avoids fees and the need for you to save expensive 25% deposits. Let the vendor be your bank, service their debt and take over their mortgage. This model works as you’re cutting out the bank, paying the vendor directly and it allows you to purchase properties BMV. Both you and the vendor are making a profit.  

 

Assisted Sales - Why buy a house that you’re planning on selling 6-9 months later? There are a lot of costs involved when purchasing an investment property such as stamp duty, legal fees, capital gains etc. This tool is a joint-venture with the homeowner where you will agree with the property owner to delay the sale of their property, allow you to renovate the house and add value and then split the profits when its sold. 

 

Planning Gain - Use a lease option to secure a property subject to planning permission and then apply for planning permission. If you don’t get the planning you don’t by the land, if you do get the planning you go ahead and purchase the property and it’s risk-free. This is an example of using two No money down tools together. 

 

Rent2Own - This tool utilises tenant-buyers whereby you move a tenant into the property and agree a purchase price. This price is lower than what you’ve purchased the property for and locks in your profit. The tenant-buyer then pays you a monthly rent and is also able to save up their deposit to purchase the property off of you in the future. This is renting in a non-traditional way whereby you’re acting as the bank for the tenant and helping them to get onto the property ladder.  

 

Notes 
Kevin started investing in property in 2003 and made a lot of mistakes costing a lot of money. In 2013 Kevin joined progressive and in debt from his previous property dealings he had to get creative, and that meant investing in property no money down.  

 
No money down means investing with none of your own money and potentially using joint-ventures to fund your property investments. However, the strategy of No Money Down encompasses much more than just simple property investment, it covers tools such as lease options, assisted sales, exchange-delay completions, Rent2Rent, Rent2Own or vendor finance.  

 
The common problem with all property investors is they know what they want to do, they know the strategy they want to implement and the type of property they want to invest in, what stops them is they simply do not have the funds to invest.  

 
Working full-time and saving up deposits is simply too slow. If you’re saving 20/25% to purchase a property over 5 years and every 5 years you’re able to invest in another property you’re only going to end up with 4 properties over 20 years. The method is just too slow and you’ll run out of life, so you need to get creative. 

 

BEST MOMENTS 

“You can purchase a property for a pound”  

“Vendor finance is a massive opportunity to get No Money Down deals and BMV” 

“I see the amateur investor all of the time, they’re trying to get deals at 20-25% BMV” 

“To be a professional investor you need to be creative, you can’t only have one investment strategy”
