Get Ready For Instalment Contracts

Oct 15 / David Lee
Along with my colleague at the time, we popularised lease options and sandwich options (“How to Buy a House for a Pound”) in the late 2000s. They were completely unheard of within the UK residential community that were conditioned to the Buy-to-Let market that was still in its infancy where mortgages were relatively easy to obtain and prices kept going up!

However, the introduction of options was partly a result of me working within the UK Polish community, where they often lacked enough deposits and working stability to exchange a contract of sale. There were also other technical reasons that persuaded me that options would be more compatible for making a good first impression. Only now, some 20 years later, am I releasing the material that I developed from 2002 onwards that is still applicable today. The Instalment Contract Pack series is coming soon!

“With the influx of Eastern Europeans into the UK from May 2004, I saw opportunities for highly motivated people to get onto the property ladder, just like my family a few years earlier. Today, I am looking at the financial landscape and I see landlords wanting to sell their portfolio, preferably not losing money.” - David Lee

Where Are Today's Opportunities?

You can look and sound like everyone else and the first impression in people’s minds will be, “same as…”, “how much below market value will you offer?”, or, “I don’t trust you”.

Step back, and take note of what is happening in the property market today and ask yourself, “How can I find opportunities that others have overlooked?” Today, if landlords can only remove tenants when they fall into arrears or they are going to sell their investment property, a lease option buyer would not be permitted, but an instalment contract buyer would be!

Get Very Targeted With Your Audience

I am sharing with you my 20 years of business experience and a wealth of knowledge for you to leverage in your real-estate investing endeavours. Listen the market, it is always right!

1) Landlords selling up their buy-to-let make ‘£10,500 less than if they had sold in 2022’

We are developing businesses, and “lease options” is not a definition of a business, but only a tool.
