Are You Selling Property?
The property market is shifting rapidly under regulatory and economic pressures, moving towards a buyer's market. If you are a landlord struggling to sell or worried about the changing tax laws, dropping your price isn't your only option. In this show, discover Simon’s creative alternatives designed to help you maximise your returns.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
The Tide has Turned: An influx of landlords exiting the market due to regulatory pressures and upcoming tax changes has flipped the landscape into a buyer's market.
Price Cuts Aren't Mandatory: Relying solely on estate agents often forces price reductions, whereas alternative methods allow you to protect your property's value.
Unlock the Power of Options: A Purchase Lease Option (PLO) allows you to secure today’s full market value while deferring the actual completion to a future date.
Become the Bank: Vendor finance lets you step into the role of the lender, enabling a faster sale at your desired price while potentially generating ongoing revenue.
BEST MOMENTS
"Lots of landlords are currently selling. Something like 247,000 landlords were looking to sell their property in the last 12 months up to March 2026"
"If you’re with an agent, all they can do is bring the price down. But there are some other things you can do instead."
"You get to sell the property at today's full market price, and you get rental income over the next five years with a lot less hassle."
"Basically, with vendor finance, you become the bank for the seller. You get to sell at the price you want."
