How to Fund Your Property Investments

In this episode of The Property Magic Podcast, Simon talks about how you can find different sources of deposit money, pay off your own home mortgage in 8-10 years, and use your hidden assets. If you don’t know where are your hidden assets, don’t worry, there’s an easy way to find out—answer a simple questionnaire. Simon also shares an elaborate but easy to understand computation to compare different approaches on using your assets. According to him, it’s best to use your capital in several properties rather than a single one. You can grow your portfolio and your wealth more. Let Simon help you today. KEY TAKEAWAYS Here are some different sources where you can get your deposit money: Savings – may it be an inheritance, from an insurance, etc, it can be a good source to fund your property purchases. Equities (from existing properties) Loans – you can borrow money from your own business (that you must pay back within a period of time), from your pension, or from your loved ones. Hidden Assets How can you release equity from your own home? Instead of downsizing, you can use your assets differently. You can reallocate your equities to different properties. This may be a better way especially that in the UK, there’s scarcity of accommodations and growth in population. Let-to-buy mortgage – Some people move out of their own homes and turn them into investment properties. It’s a real sacrifice for them so they could grow their capital for their next property purchases.
