Key Topics Covered:

1. Why BRR Matters

Most investors run out of cash before they run out of ambition.
BRR is not just a “strategy”—it’s a way to keep growing your portfolio with limited resources.
Works for residential, commercial, and mixed-use properties.

2. The Seven Steps to BRR Success

Target properties others avoid (those with problems lenders won’t touch).
Calculate your offer: future value minus costs and a 20% margin.
Make fair offers—don’t be afraid to go below asking price.
Expect and embrace rejection; it’s part of the process.
Follow up with rejected offers—motivation changes over time.
Secure finance, fix the property, and add value.
Refinance at the new value to pull out as much cash as possible.

3. Creative Financing & Bridging Loans

Bridging finance lets you buy and refurb properties that need work, even if you don’t have all the cash upfront.
Build the cost of bridging into your deal—if the numbers work, it’s worth it.
Always take longer terms than you think you’ll need to avoid penalties.

4. Avoiding Common Mistakes

Don’t get attached to asking prices; base your offers on solid calculations.
Provide clear evidence of tangible improvements to valuers for successful refinancing.
Plan for potential overruns and down valuations.

5. Market Insights & Mindset

Despite higher interest rates and tougher legislation, rents have risen and BRR still works if you buy right.
The property market is seeing a “changing of the guard”—new investors are entering as older landlords exit.
Success comes from thinking differently and being willing to do what others won’t.

6. Advanced Tactics: Delayed Completion & Ninja Investors

“Exchange with delayed completion” lets you refurb before you own, sometimes pulling your cash out on day one.
Ninja investors operate under the radar, focusing on creative deals and properties most ignore.

Actionable Takeaways

Focus on properties with problems you know how to solve.
Always run your own numbers and stick to fair, calculated offers.
Use creative finance and networking to keep growing—even when cash is tight.
Embrace rejection and follow up—motivation changes.
Learn from experienced mentors and surround yourself with like-minded investors.
