Welcome to another episode of The Investors Corner with your hosts Mike and Andy! In this episode, we dive deep into the dynamics of the Oxford property market with our special guest, Sherko Zen-Aloush, a renowned property expert from Oxford.

Episode Highlights

Market Trends and Student Preferences: Students are becoming more selective about their living conditions, opting for modern and well-located properties. This shift is largely driven by the substantial debt burden they carry, making them willing to pay higher rents for better accommodation.

Oxford's Property Market: Oxford's property market remains robust, bolstered by its prominent hospitals, universities, and the BMW Mini plant. The city attracts both students and professionals, creating a lucrative environment for landlords.

Challenges in Student Lettings: While student rentals can be highly profitable, they come with challenges such as the need for guarantors due to students' lack of employment. The competition from university accommodations also sets high standards for landlords.

Investment Advice: Investing in HMOs (Houses in Multiple Occupation) in Oxford can yield substantial profits, especially in areas with lower HMO saturation. However, it's crucial for potential investors to thoroughly research local regulations and market conditions.

Property Standards and Management: Many HMOs in Oxford require significant upgrades to meet student expectations. Effective property management and maintaining high standards can lead to longer tenancies and increased rental income.

Landlord Advice: Landlords are advised to reinvest in their properties to remain competitive and meet rising tenant expectations. Collaborating with reliable agents can also enhance property management and tenant satisfaction.

Meet our guest

Sherko Zen-Aloush is a seasoned property agent at Avocado Property Agents. With extensive experience in the Oxford property market, Sherko brings a wealth of knowledge, particularly in the student and professional accommodation sectors. You can learn more about Sherko and his expertise here.

In this episode of The Investors Corner, hosts Ian, Mike, and Andy delve into the latest developments affecting landlords and investors in the South East of the UK. They provide a comprehensive analysis of the recent election results, the state of the housing market, political promises, and economic predictions. This episode is packed with valuable insights and actionable advice for both new and experienced investors.

Election Results and Impact on Landlords

The recent election saw the Labour Party win with fewer votes than Jeremy Corbyn received five years ago, marking the first change of government in 14 years.
The hosts discuss how this political shift might influence the rate at which landlords are exiting the market.

Housing Market and Landlord Dynamics

There's a notable imbalance between the supply and demand of rental homes, creating a challenging environment for both landlords and tenants.
Despite new policies, it's still uncertain whether landlords will decide to exit or retain their properties in the market.

Political Promises and Concerns

Labour's manifesto includes an ambitious plan to build 150,000 social houses annually, but there are concerns regarding the funding and overall feasibility of this promise.
Potential implementation of emergency legislation, particularly around Section 21 notices, raises further questions and concerns among landlords.

Market Dynamics Pre-Election

Prior to the election, there was a slight increase in mortgage rates and housing supply.
Investors are advised to maintain their current strategies until more concrete policies are established.

Social Housing Plans

Labour plans a significant investment in social housing to potentially replace private landlords, though specific execution details remain unclear.

Economic Predictions

Behavioural economist Roger Martin Fagor predicts a 1.5% economic growth this year.
The existing demand-supply imbalance in rental homes could be advantageous for landlords in the long run.

Key Insights * 150,000 social houses/year: Labour's target for new social housing construction. * £19 billion/year: Estimated cost for Labour's social housing plan, raising concerns about funding. * 68%: Percentage of people more interested in the Euros than the election, indicating a general public disinterest in political changes. * 60-55% voter turnout: Shows a significant portion of the population is disillusioned with the electoral process.

In this episode of The Investors Corner, Andy, Mike, and Ian delve into the housing policies and tax cuts promised by various political parties. We kick off with a discussion on the recent promises focusing on housing and business tax cuts. Nigel Farage's political tactics are highlighted, drawing comparisons to Trump for his effective audience targeting.

Election Insights | The panel provides insights into the upcoming election, touching on betting scandals and notable events like Keir Starmer's appearance at a Taylor Swift concert. They speculate on potential outcomes and the promises made by different parties.

Conservative Manifesto | A breakdown of the Conservative party's housing policies reveals promises to increase the stamp duty cap for first-time buyers, tackle climate change in houses, and offer temporary capital gains tax relief for landlords selling to tenants. The panel critiques these policies, noting past promises with minimal results.

Labour Manifesto | We examine Labour's housing policies, including plans to abolish Section 21, empower tenants to challenge unreasonable rent increases, and ensure private rented houses meet minimum energy efficiency standards by 2030. The panel finds Labour's manifesto promising but remains skeptical about its implementation.

Reform Party Proposals | Nigel Farage and the Reform Party propose a stamp duty ban up to £750k, changes to inheritance tax, and business tax cuts. The populist nature of these proposals is noted, along with questions about their feasibility.

Green and Lib Dem Policies | An overview of the housing policies from the Green Party and Liberal Democrats, focusing on rent control, energy efficiency improvements, and abolishing residential leaseholds. The panel considers these proposals ambitious but lacking in practical details.

Investment Advice | We conclude with advice for property investors, recommending the purchase of stable properties like three-bedroom semis with potential for extension. The importance of investing in properties with low void periods and good rental returns is emphasized.

Insights Based on Numbers: * Stamp Duty Increase: The stamp duty cap for first-time buyers is proposed to increase to £425,000 (from £250,000). The panel notes that 5% of £175,000 isn't a substantial amount. * Capital Gains Tax Relief: A temporary 2-year capital gains tax relief for landlords selling to tenants is mentioned, with questions about the frequency of such transactions and potential loopholes. * Housing Targets: Labour's target to build 1.5 million houses over the next Parliament is highlighted, with a reminder of past missed goals.

UK's No. 1provider of Digital Reservation Agreements and Upfront Seller Information.

Did you know 80% of people buying a house wanted more information upfront...

The Gazeal buyer information packs ensure that buyers make an informed purchase decision. The seller of the home completes key information about their property and this transparency eliminates a lot of the risks attached with unknown information. A better-informed buyer is less likely to pull out and more likely to be bold in putting forward their best offer.

Could Reading be the new hotspot for investors?

According to Matt, property prices have remained steady since 2016 but now offer a fantastic yield, even more so with rental prices increasing year on year...much quicker than the pace of sales, so could this mean we’re in for a price hike?

Reading has so much to offer; including easy access to the M4 motorway, a university, a hospital, a multitude of business parks, an array of great shops, bars & restaurants and of course, the new Queen Elizabeth Line, which reduces travel time to the city substantially.

The only big-ticket items this town doesn't offer is a beach, a Premier league football team and City Status, which Matt seemed hard done by...but if two of the three were to happen in the coming years, what would this mean for prices locally?

This week we sit down with Matt Barrell, also known all over socials as @TheReadingAgent, to discuss the good, the bad and the ugly on why Reading might be a good place to look when investing.

Could this be the biggest shake-up of the private rented sector in the last 30 years?

The government has outlined its proposals for the Renters' Reform Bill in its A Fairer Private Rented Sector white paper.

Join Ian & Tristan where they break down three simple case studies of three investors who have utilised their experience & property sourcing services which has successfully led to purchasing their first buy to let properties...

Investor one - had some money sat in savings and wasn't getting the interest or return they would elsewhere so decided to explore their options.

Investor two - after a successful year in business they decided to do an inter-company loan to purchase their first BTL.

Investor three - pulled some equity out of their existing property to purchase a second home as a retirement plan.

We break down each deal individually and discuss why it's a great investment, the purchase price, achieved rental price vs time on market and the yield these investors are currently achieving.

Pete is the owner of HMO on Steroids & HMO Premier. With over two decades of property experience, Peter has helped hundreds of investors along his property journey. If you want to maximise your properties potential or are looking for your next deal, this is definitely a podcast you want to tune in for…

The PodcastIn this episode we find out how Pete changed a boring and challenging HMO market into a fun, exciting and money-making investment. There are many factors to consider when looking at HMOs and this is clearly why you want to deal with a local expert, in this podcast we discuss the following topics…

Pete shares a recent success story of a purchase that made 15% forced capital and a 51% net profit… what should an investor be looking for when looking for their next purchase?

The reason why Pete only invests in Berkshire & Surrey rather than nationally, the craze seems to be far north for higher yields – The true reason behind this and the losses they face by doing so!

What makes Pete’s HMOs stand out compared to any others in the marketplace at the moment? Pete shares the key behind all of their HMOs in case there is ever a dip in the market

The truth behind guaranteed 10-15% BMV deals you see online – are they all lies?

The importance of building a good community within a HMO, which is how they kept an average 15-month occupancy rate compared to a 7-month UK average! One investor set a record with full 6-bedroom occupancy for 24 months! What’s the secret?

Why do you cap your HMOs at 6 bedrooms when you could easily add 1, 2, or in some cases 3 rooms and additional bathrooms to maximise rent? The answers might shock you!

With the cost of living increasing, is this the start of something big for us all? Its not something that will affect us tomorrow but in the next few months once everything kicks in we will start to see a knock on effect?

The property market has been booming for a while but has never caught up from ‘Covid’ so we thought it was only right to answer those questions we’re sure you thinking…

What does this mean for the property market?
Why is demand still outweighing supply?
Is the data projecting an increase in affordability from 30 times the rental amount?
What can we do to prevent our tenants falling into arrears?
What trends are you starting to see?

Why is St. James places dropping the wealth management title? we see it as a misconception and people think it's only those with big savings can do it, would you agree?

At what point should someone be looking to contact a wealth manager?

Why are 1 in 2 Landlords selling? what does this mean for Landlords & Tenants with increased demand and lack of stock

The main cause of disputes at end of tenancy is cleaning, why is this? how can we resolve this as an industry...We want to hear the voice of the public on how they feel it can be resolved as an industry, so please make sure you get involved & share your comments on our socials @TheLandlordpage but in the meantime, we get stuck right in with some great solutions to the problem…
What where the Common issues you found from the eyes of cleaning business and a landlord prospective?

The perspective of end of tenancy clean is, we want cheap and quick, it’s a tick box to say it’s been cleaned but, when the clerk attends check out and flags all the oversites, they will either refuse to reattend or charge to go back out, have you been in this position before?

What is the solution to the problem for end of tenancy cleans?

Ves & Mike share some great personal feedback on this… how do you think we resolve it?

Would a mid-term tenancy clean be more beneficial to a landlords asset rather than just an end of tenancy clean when there has potential build-up of dirt, limescale etc for a 1, 2 or 3+ year period.

As a landlord, would you be open to something like this?

**Do you go above and beyond expectations for your tenants? I.e. show them how to use the appliances or top up the water softener if applicable or maybe someone new to the area/country point out the local shops & restaurants you’d recommend going to. This goes back to our previous podcast with Megan from ARLA, you get out what you put in and by keeping a good relationship with you tenants will result in a long-term tenancy which in the long term saves you money.

Would you as a tenant like a cleaning welcome pack with a list of recommended products/check list to ensure the property is being cleaned with the correct products which as a result maintains longer and doesn’t cause damage unlike some products. And as a Landlord would you feel more at ease knowing your tenants have been given this?

Lets meet our Guest...**Former estate agent, company director for reputable cleaning & maintenance company and a current Landlord, we thought there was no better person than Ves who can share his point of view from 4 different perspectives on the long-term issue of end of tenancy cleaning, a well-known industry issue that has never been openly discussed or more importantly resolved! Whether you’re a tenant, landlord or thinking of investing, this podcast is for you!
