ASK474: How would the monopoly strategy work in this situation? PLUS: Should I take a higher deposit?

It’s time for the latest edition of Ask Rob & Rob, with two never-before-asked questions!  (0:36) Scott wants to know if Rob & Rob request a higher deposit when rent increases during a tenancy, and if that extra deposit should be placed into the deposit protection scheme.  (2:55) Rob's previously invested in lower-value properties in the north, focusing on cash flow and yield. After hearing about the Monopoly strategy on The Property Podcast, he’s considering moving to more expensive properties. He asks Rob & Rob how the strategy works when capital growth becomes the focus over cash flow, and how to manage that shift.  Enjoy the show?  Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts - it really helps others find us!  Sign up for our free weekly newsletter, Property Pulse  Send us your question by calling us on 013 808 00035 and leaving a message with your name and question (normal UK call rates apply) or click here to leave a recording via your computer instead.  Find out more about Property Hub Invest
