(00:46) Jessica’s found a discounted buy-to-let with just over 100 years left on the lease, but is the discount a risk worth taking? Rob B explains exactly when a short lease should start ringing alarm bells. (04:01) Emma invests in Wales and is branching into England -, but the differences in licensing, notices and tenancy rules are overwhelming. Rob D breaks down why it’s less scary than it seems and shares a resource that covers both sides of the border.
