At times I expect you thought will we ever finish this project?....... but you finally got there and look at it now, wow! 🤩 You had a little bit of luck on the way and finally at the end game by selling it in February, phew, just before this dreadful pandemic arrived which will undoubtedly rock the property market, reducing values.

Have lived in the clapham/Wandsworth area over the years each time moving into new Victorian properties and doing renovations so I understand all the pitfalls that you met whilst doing your flat up. It's all down to knowing a good contractor or just knowing the individual trades. I think that there's no help from the Government for us who live in London; stamp duty is outrageous when we buy our homes in London; that same tax could have been spent on the renovations/refurbishment that we usually find we have to do. Good luck in finding somewhere after lockdown.

Interesting. I've not seen your other videos about the flat. So pleased you made a profit on it after all the hard work you put in to it. Would be cautious about starting another project right now in the middle of a pandemic as none of us know how long this is going to go on for or what the implications are going to be regarding property prices post pandemic. Unless it was a refurb for you to live in yourself for a few years, it could be a risky undertaking if you are doing it purely to make money. On the other hand, now is probably a god time to buy as the market will probably stall due to the uncertainty. A lot to think about on top of everything else you are dealing with.

Alex, this vlog is so interesting for me, in brief, I bought a detached house, am currently doing what u did, had previously done small refurbs, but not on this scale, can completely connect with all u say. I had various builders quotes to, the company were lets say best out of a bad bunch, I do feel builders, carpenters etc, are not living in the 21st century. Their customer care skills are archaic, we have spent huge money to the builder, if that was anything else u would be treated with a bit more respect, with out sounding precious. Due to current situation we are in, everything is on hold, but just the hall to complete, it has taken two years. TBC

Alex compared an real estate investment trust will pay you around 10% a yr dividend plus any potential gain the trust increases . If you invest in oil or oil related stock like BP you have a chance of 100% gain before Christmas. Removes all the risk of buying property and the hassle of dealing with estates agents and tradesmen. Plus with stocks you can buy today sell a minute later . Great time to start while stocks are low .😎👍💰

I know exactly what you mean and agree with it all Alex ! We renovated a single story farmhouse with 2 acres of grounds and built on a whole new top level and gutted the lot . I really agree with laying down very clear guidelines with any sub contractors you employ as with lack of commucation mistakes can cost you greatly. We did a lot of work for our renovation ourselves ,but it always costs more and takes more time than you think . Just waiting for councils to come out and inspect can take forever . My biggest tip is to get prices per job not by the hour or day as that way builders can string it out longer costing you more . The worst was our electrian who promised the lights working on this particular day and said he wanted the remainder of his bill paid . I said you will get paid when those lights are on and not before hey presto lights on ! so be prepared to be a bit tough at times . It also took me a long while to love my renovation like you Alex as it takes literally blood , sweat and tears . I do love it now its our special family home . You do what ever makes you happy . It was a good learning curve for us both ! xx

I couldn't get rid of the filth despite changing scrubbing decorating everything. My Wife only stayed in it one night Had to sell - at a modest return.

The weight of emotion invested in property can take you to the brink, and remind you of the difficult challenges each time you look at the final detail. I can understand exactly why you should let that one go. Only keep the ones you fall in love with. Also you are growing into this new area. It is perhaps healthy to let go and move on to the next project. You may eventually end up with that sound portfolio over time, so keep learning. You obviously enjoy the process of change.

I am not sure actually! It is lovely though

I don't get this whole share of freehold thing. If you own a share, why do you have a leasehold as well and what happens when the leasehold ends?
@DrAlexGeorge4 жыл бұрын
So the property is split into 4 and therefore you own 25% each. The leasehold provides some legal framework for communal areas and maintenance

Property is not worth it today prices are dangerously high and will fall !!
@callummccubbing45064 жыл бұрын
They won't fall. The beginning of this year was a real testament to that. Many sellers are still putting their houses on the market. Once this is all over with the market will carry on going.

I'm planning to renovate my toilet this summer, and I was wondering if you could give me any sought of advice on how I should do so, as I have has no experience. Also, I've seen your renovated toilet and I absolutely loved the copper radiators!

Will your next purchase be for yourself or will your friend also be investing? Would it be another London property? I think it will be a good time to buy as prices are likely to fall
@DrAlexGeorge4 жыл бұрын
It will be myself :) likely in London however I am considering projects elsewhere

No shout out for the electricians? Electrical work is the most regulated/technical trade out of any trades involved, without exception.

scimg And also one filled with overcharging cowboys. I was quoted £12,000 for a basic rewire of a vacant three bed terrace in London. Some seem to think they can charge whatever they like, yet the standard of some of the work I have seen is appalling.
@escfxp4 жыл бұрын
@@spencerwilton5831 That could be said of any trade and the free market allows you to compare. Doesn't change the fact that it's the most heavily regulated/technically complicated trade out of all them. Use a reliable outlet such as Which? and do a comparison, for example.

question if you have time - re the NHS - after the country gets through the worst of the covid - do you think that there will be cost cuts to healthcare because of the recession that covid has caused?

The Daily Mail published an Instagram pic where you say you had to move out of the flat due to the tenancy period expiring. Comments on that? Also, if it's true that you just fell out of love with the place - what about the friend you had bought the place with? How did they feel?
@DrAlexGeorge4 жыл бұрын
Thats the flat I moved into after selling this one and my friend feels exactly the same
