hi Samuel Leeds here and one of the
[1]
strategies that myself and my success
[3]
students are doing really well at the
[5]
moment is buying properties but rather
[7]
than leaving and money in the property
[9]
we are adding value to it and then
[12]
refinancing the property and pulling an
[14]
money back out which is a fabulous
[16]
strategy now the biggest danger in this
[18]
is that when you try and refinance the
[20]
property is that it gets down valued so
[22]
on this video I've got the top five ways
[25]
to make sure that your surveyor does not
[28]
down value your property hence meaning
[30]
that you can pull all almost of your
[32]
money out so the five ways to increase
[34]
your property valuation the first way is
[37]
when the valuer goes out to the property
[40]
always always always always make sure
[43]
that you go out there - that you meet
[45]
the value of the property when you meet
[47]
him there or her just be friendly be
[50]
nice dress well and don't get there and
[53]
say what do you think what do you think
[54]
what do you think the value is because
[55]
that's what people always do and it just
[58]
annoys the valuers so just get there be
[60]
professional be friendly build some
[62]
rapport and be ready to answer questions
[64]
that's the first way to make sure that
[65]
you're onto a good start number two next
[68]
is the valuer they're not stupid they
[70]
know what you paid for that house and
[73]
you probably got it at a little bit of a
[75]
bargain so what a lot of people do is
[76]
they try and hide the fact they don't
[78]
they might have bought the house really
[79]
cheap for say fifty thousand pounds and
[81]
now they've spent 20 grand on it they've
[83]
put seventy thousand in total and they
[84]
think it's worth a hundred but rather
[86]
than mean honest and just saying you
[88]
know what I actually got this really
[89]
cheap I bought it for fifty thousand and
[91]
here's why I managed to go so cheap
[92]
here's how it happened instead they just
[94]
try and hope that the valuer doesn't
[96]
know how much they paid for it doesn't
[98]
research doesn't find out well they will
[100]
know exactly what you paid for it don't
[102]
know when you bought it as well so step
[104]
number two is to just or tip number two
[105]
it's just to be honest just say you know
[107]
what I actually got this for fifty
[109]
thousand pounds the reason I managed to
[110]
get it so cheap is because I bought
[112]
three off the landlord and he was in a
[114]
real hurry to move because yet I had
[116]
some bad talents and this was the story
[117]
and I bought all three of them and a
[119]
little bit of a bargain number three
[121]
demonstrate and show the valuer
[123]
exactly what you've done to the property
[125]
how have you added so much value be
[127]
ready to show the invoices and the
[129]
receipts and what you've done just if I
[130]
back up exact
[132]
how much value that is and why you think
[134]
these properties is worth more now than
[136]
it was when you bought it
[137]
next number four this is so so so
[139]
important you can follow the first three
[142]
steps so far and you can you can win the
[144]
value over and you can sense that he's
[146]
onside and he can be really impressed
[148]
and he can really like you and in his
[150]
mind he might be thinking yeah this is
[151]
worth one hundred thousand pound which
[153]
is perfect but then he goes and he views
[156]
more properties all day back-to-back and
[158]
he forgets about you and he forgets
[160]
about your property and then he's there
[162]
at his desk and he's thinking oh what
[164]
was this one he gets mixed up and then
[166]
Bank he gives you your very low
[168]
valuation you think what I was I was so
[170]
convinced so how do you get around that
[172]
before the valuer leaves what I was
[174]
doing I really like to do is I'll make a
[176]
loop hat for him a little folder and I
[177]
put the before and the after pictures
[180]
and I put the receipts I put it all
[182]
together in a little presentation folder
[184]
and I say to him look thank you so much
[186]
for your time I look forward to hearing
[187]
from you please can I leave you this
[189]
picture the front of the house on the
[190]
front with the address all the pictures
[192]
before and after that way when he's back
[194]
in his office thinking teeny what was
[196]
that one again and what he's got it
[197]
right in front of him that is such a
[199]
massive tip I can't even emphasize how
[202]
much difference that might make do you
[204]
be able to rebound your property at high
[205]
amount and lastly number five and you
[208]
might not like this one super much but
[209]
it's just prepare for the worst prepare
[212]
for a lower valuation than you hoped the
[215]
problem with the strategy of buying and
[217]
then adding value and refinancing is
[219]
when you're relying on a surveyors
[222]
opinion which is effectively what it is
[224]
how much is a house worth what a house
[226]
is worth what someone's per bed's paid
[227]
for it's a subjective figure and when
[229]
you're completely banking on someone's
[231]
subjective opinion and if they give you
[233]
a down valuation you're screwed because
[235]
you bought the house on credit cards and
[237]
just prepare for the worst be realistic
[239]
and expect the valuer
[241]
to lower it value than you think it's
[243]
easy and property investing to get
[244]
really carried away to be really
[246]
optimistic and to be able to say well
[248]
this this one sold for this much
[249]
therefore the value is definitely going
[251]
to vary my mouth prepare for the worst
[252]
be conservative if the figures do not
[254]
stack up with you leaving some money in
[256]
then don't go ahead with a deal in the
[258]
first place so there we go there were
[259]
the five ways to increase your property
[261]
valuation and also to make a success of
[264]

[265]
