Maximising future returns

Maximising future returns Worryingly only 48% of landlords consider their property lets ‘a business’ Providing a home in return for rent is a business exchange Landlords should consider their lettings as a business to turn profits Good businesses should make profits Professionally-run businesses make more profit

The business plan Where do you want your business to be in five years’ time? Create a business plan Consider the next 1, 3, 5 years Consider each property separately Consider market movements Consider expansion/reduction plans

Expect the unexpected Be prepared for those worst case scenarios Rent arrears Expensive repairs Voids Build a buffer into your budget Budget to receive 10 months’ rent in every 12 month period Protect yourself Purchase insurance policies to protect your income

Insurance NLA Rent Protect NLA Property Insurance Protects you if your tenant fails to pay the rent Covers you for up to £2500 per month in unpaid rental income and it covers legal costs to help you in the recovery of unpaid rent £10 discount for NLA Full Members NLA Property Insurance As a landlord it is vital that you take out residential landlord property insurance as normal home insurance policies do not cover essentials such as public liability and alternative accommodation 15% discount for NLA Full Members
