[20]
build a small property portfolio that
[22]
generates a great income for them so
[24]

[25]

[31]

[33]
don't miss out on any of the free
[35]
content that I give you each and every
[37]
week so today I want to talk about how
[40]
to find cheap houses for sale using both
[42]
online and indeed offline methods and so
[46]
let's start right off with a couple of
[47]
online search techniques that really can
[50]
help you uncover some potentially cheap
[52]
houses so because it won't move or
[55]
indeed Zoopla as an example
[57]
after you've set in your criteria for
[59]
the sort of property that you're looking
[60]
for or sort by the lowest price first
[63]
this really can throw up some
[65]
potentially great deals that you might
[67]
otherwise have missed and if you're
[69]
using Zoopla you could also sort by most
[72]
reduced which really can highlight some
[74]
fantastic opportunities some fantastic
[77]
properties that have maybe really
[79]
stepped down in price sort by old it
[83]
listed first of all and why does it help
[86]
you well because sometimes these owners
[88]
can be let's be honest a little bit
[89]
despondent with the amount of interest
[92]
that they got maybe they thought they
[93]
will put their property in the market
[94]
and it be snapped up straight away but
[96]
this hasn't happened and so now maybe
[99]
they've got to a point what they're
[101]
really open to doing maybe a creative
[103]
deal maybe just giving a really good
[105]
discount awful for the purchase price
[107]
obviously your job is to connect with
[109]
those people and then put a good offer
[111]
in front of them set up automatic alerts
[114]
for your criteria and where you're doing
[116]
this make sure that you set the the
[118]
price that you're willing to pay quite
[120]
low
[121]
that way when something is thrown up
[123]
that meets your criteria well you're
[125]
gonna go and have a little look
[126]
that aren't you Gumtree can be a great
[129]
source for online deals and often the
[132]
advertisers are the owners themselves
[134]
now what that means is that when you
[137]
pick up the phone and speak to the
[138]
advertiser you're talking to the owner
[140]
of the property so obviously that gives
[143]
you a great opportunity to negotiate a
[145]
deal without their I say a an estate
[148]
agent maybe looking over your shoulder
[150]
never overlook commercial agents as
[153]
these can often have odd and quirky
[155]
deals and if you go online go on to
[157]
those web sites search percussion
[159]
commercial estate agents in your area I
[161]
bet you can find one or two interesting
[164]
little properties that could potentially
[165]
make a cheap house or two or three windy
[168]
flats for example look for DIY
[171]
advertisers this is a great tip and by
[174]
this I mean these are usually going to
[175]
be the owners themselves that are
[177]
actually advertising those properties
[179]
then you can usually tell because
[182]
there's one or two or three or four
[183]
different companies out there that are
[185]
kind of geared towards the owner selling
[187]
the property themselves off the top of
[190]
my head on I can think of express a
[191]
state agency or maybe purple bricks or
[194]
something like that usually that's the
[196]
owner that's gonna replace that effort
[198]
but there's a few others as well that
[199]
slipped my mind just for a moment but if
[201]
you go and speak to those people well
[203]
the chances are the person that shows
[205]
you around the property is of course
[206]
going to be the owner of that property
[208]
does that give you a great opportunity
[210]
to sit down with a cup of tea and
[211]
negotiate a really good deal with them
[213]
I'd suggest it might by the way to find
[216]
this video helpful I would love it if
[218]
you could take a moment just to click on
[219]
that like button down there it really
[221]
helps me that's okay and so how can you
[224]
find cheap houses for sale offline well
[227]
you should be connecting with sources in
[230]
your investment area so go onto Facebook
[233]
have a little look on Facebook I bet you
[235]
find one or three sources that could
[238]
maybe help you find cheap houses in your
[240]
investment area go to networking events
[243]
I always say it but arrive early this is
[246]
cause I used to host an event for six
[247]
years and the people I cared about were
[250]
the people that arrived early and coming
[253]
miel they were the people I wanted to
[255]
have a chat to and stay late because
[257]
never forget deals happen in the bar
[259]
always keep some handwritten or they
[263]
look like handwritten leaflets in your
[266]
car so when you're out and about and you
[268]
find and effect an amazing potential
[271]
property you've got a leaflet again it
[273]
looks like it's handwritten and you can
[275]
go and put that through the letterbox so
[277]
that maybe they're not going to sell
[278]
today but maybe in a little while down
[280]
the line they may well be picking up the
[282]
phone and giving you a call and of
[284]
course when they do so you can negotiate
[285]
a potentially great deal with them
[288]
there's a ton of ways that you can find
[291]
off-market deals which means you can
[294]
find some great discounts by dealing
[297]
direct with the seller because again
[299]
there might be so bold as to say the
[301]
estate agency isn't there looking over
[303]
your shoulder and certainly in my online
[305]
property masterclass I cover a load of
[307]
different marketing strategies that we
[309]
won't have time to go into here that can
[311]
help you get directly in front of the
[313]
seller auctions can unearth on earth
[316]
some really cheap houses for sale but
[319]
please do your due diligence and I will
[322]
also strongly suggest you've got to
[324]
actually connect with and speak to your
[326]
solicitor and put the information back
[328]
under his or her nose before you ever
[331]
bid on any property and lastly please
[334]
walk your area there are so many deals
[337]
out there that are within the miles
[339]
walking distance of where you are
[341]
you just haven't spotted them yet
[342]
because you haven't watched your area so
[345]
just a few quick additional thoughts
[346]
here just to help you if I may you need
[349]
to look at a lot of houses and you need
[352]
to make a lot of offers if you do that
[355]
honestly you will make you make a lot of
[358]
cheeky offers you will pull up some
[360]
incredible deals if those offers are a
[362]
little bit cheeky and talking about this
[364]
please don't be afraid to negotiate
[367]
strongly yes yes I always want this to
[370]
work well for the seller but this has to
[372]
be a deal for you you're a property
[374]
investor so this has to be a great deal
[377]
for you so don't be too afraid to put in
[380]
some really quite cheeky offers always
[383]
be on the lookout for rundown
[385]
knackered Elsie's there were so many of
[389]
them out there you should be looking for
[391]
these places are really run down because
[393]
he can be potentially great cheap houses
[396]
and lastly can I just say sometimes the
[400]
price a property is actually advertised
[403]
for makes it already an absolutely
[406]
fantastic deal and the more properties
[409]
that you go and see the quicker that you
[411]
will recognize that fantastic deal when
[414]
it actually crops up in my completely
[417]
free online property mini course I will
[420]
teach you how to build a small property
[421]
portfolio there generates a great income
