How a ÂŁ51k Lock-Up Deal Became a ÂŁ140k Commercial Property Asset
Q: What was it about this block of garages that made you think this was under-let and worth pursuing rather than just cheap?
The garages were in a nice residential area and were under-let relative to market rents; by leveraging the experience from residential properties, the plan was to lift rents to market level, use a professional agent to manage the process, and then realize value through improved income and a subsequent valuation.
This commercial property strategy changed because of the contents of the valuation… and no it wasn’t the value that swayed the decision.
Q: What advice would you give to someone else who's looking to get into commercial property?
Kulvinder encouraged others to just go ahead and do it, stating it's not as scary as it seems at first.
