Lifestyle Changes, has anyone made any.

[Squid]

just asking as at a loose end and fancy a challenge and a different lifestyle bu the coast, seen another place but under offer converted in to a 3 bed for the owner 1 x 2 bed 1 x 1 bed and a 1 x studio for £780k, the figures add up for the rental income and then I can bum around for a bit more and buy nicer cars, seen this needs some work but if I could make a go of it then I have time on working on a business with residual income.

Thoughts and advice appreciated from all and sundry.

doing the e-cig thing has been a life-saver...
would go back tomorrow...but I won;t!

If I were your financial advisor I might suggest that with such a big pot to play with you would be better off buying many more places in cheaper areas, and sell them off one by one to fund pension later...nowadays, any borrowing for buy to let is a no-no.

Was diagnosed with hypertension a few months back. The hidden killer.

Trying to control cholesterol and stop drinking in the week. Not easy with this lovely weather.

sparked your interest...
Lol! I see what you did there!

new tax regime kills letting with mortgages attached, but otherwise it's a goer, for sure
