Side Hustle Houses

Own and manage 5 houses. Working towards 15. Sharing the ups and downs of the search for early retirement and FI.

This is my 5th Rental that will close in 2 weeks.

It was purely brought from profits from other rentals.

This is the system.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

15 years without that renter that trashed the place.

Maybe I believed I was the exception

I treated people well

Was attentive to requests

Well…….

Today it was my turn.

Pictures to follow.

Tough one to swallow

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

I used to keep everything in house.

I did everything myself

Over time

Outsourcing has changed the game for me.

Mortgages are once again unpredictable after a great 20 minutes of stability.

Thanks Donald

They will settle again

Hold your nerve.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

Time in the market, not timing the market is not just a tip for stocks.

Flipping houses is a lucrative but risky game.

Buy
Hold
Keep cash flow positive

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

I’ve been doing this long enough to understand you have to block out the noise.

Tax changes, government legislation etc.

Change isn’t new.

Adapt and continue.

Small apartment blocks remain a superb long term investment.

Beware though if you hire management they charge per unit.

If you self manage though you are winning all day.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

No one has cold called me to rent to rent any of my properties in the last month.

Where are all the bro’s?

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

Back to the 9-5 tomorrow after a nice Christmas break.

Working as hard as ever in the background to make my side hustle my main hustle.

It won’t come overnight but it will come.

@Jetson_Dad Would depend on a few things starting with where you are based or looking to potentially invest.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

Next year will be different

Maybe we are hoping g finances or health is better when we sit down next Christmas?

In 15 years of investing I’ve been told every year that a crash is round the corner or just wait.

You can’t live in fear. There is opportunity in every market and right now is no different.

Get educated and jump in.

Future you is depending on it.

Monopoly taught us if you don’t take risks you end up paying rent to someone that did 🏠 💰

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

Some days you’re cashing cheques

Somedays you’re breaking your neck painting a loft conversion.

It ain’t all glam. It’s all part of the process.

Interesting pod from @PropertyHubUK

Highlighting the struggles of those investing in personal name.

It really is the age of the LTD company.

Running with a Lab is not for the weak.

Only stepped on him twice tonight.

@Budgetdog_ Always think of this quote

Closer to the finish of this kitchen and bathroom reno.

Letting agent booked for late next week to assess and then get it on the market pronto.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

August/September full house Reno coming to an end.

After moving away from the student market I’m freshening this place up and handing it on over to a management team.

I’ve grafted for growth and now I’m optimising for a passive income stream.

Should be all done in the next week and get ready for a swift handover.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

I love this set up for a camp ground.

My search for land continues and I cannot wait to get started.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

Government screwing Student landlords for years.

Landlords exit space.

University’s are currently begging landlords to take students on private emails. They are due to move in, in three weeks.

Didn’t see that one coming 😆

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

@LondonScholarr There are a lot of people with a lot of systems, one man’s win is another man’s loss. There are a stack of ways to win the property game. Maybe I’m a little old school. I am winning my race good luck to you with yours.

[Side Hustle Houses @SHHouses]

Full portfolios starting to hit my market.

Student landlords are selling up due to increased pinch from government legislation with lots of uncertainty around the corner.

That being said, I’d be in for £1.5 - £1.6m
