How I Would Invest in Property (If I Could Start Over)

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

Here's 4 free property courses I've made totalling over 32-hours of property knowledge: www.ahmed-khan.com/free-courses

[@salsabila786]

Hello Ahmed, would you recommend this model under a halal mortgage provider? All my properties are 100% equity cash purchases, except a couple of properties with Al Rayan and my HMOs which are rebt to rent. I'd consider scaling up further and faster, but a model with equity in the properties.

[@Spifey]

watched one of your videos and I’ve binged them all haha super informative this is a great resource

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

Lool glad you’ve found them useful! Your channel is doing so well man, would love to get some tips from you and would be happy to help with property where I can :)

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

Dropped you a DM on insta:)

[@qlus]

Quite random to see you here but it shows that you're putting your money to good use 😉

[@SamanthaJackson-d7h]

Can I just check you do need to pay if the original finance as that’s not mentioned? When you use a bridging loan get new value finance re a new mortgage the outstanding amount is still owed? So the numbers aren’t right are they as no where does it mention this? Pls help

[@CharlieWingate1]

ive never seen property investing explained so clearly. You are a rare individual. Well done!

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

Appreciate it :)

[@victoredwards3959]

@ E Money. This guy is fantastic, honest and straight to the point, He is not trying to sell property courses or looking for a way to monetise his channel . Nice guy . I have learned so much from him. I am on my 5 properties in 2 years. Khan stay bless bro.

[@prashphoto]

First channel I’ll actually sit and watch the entire video.

[@alexwilson-smith5503]

Cool video, Ahmed, thanks for posting. Have a couple of questions: - With council property conversions like these, how do you get change-of-use permission to convert a 1-bed into a 2-bed? Councils wouldn't normally allow this, as there's legislation about the min amount of space required per person, right? - Also wondering if the strategy works with privately owned properties. How easy is it to get permission from the freeholder to do the conversion, before you buy? Also, surely the freeholder would want to charge about half of the property's increase in value from the conversion?

[@arielnunes6459]

How did you get £84,883 to get started?

[@beckyw6141]

Is it difficult to get permission to convert kitchen to the lounge and converting into the bedroom from the leaseholder

[@Hacktheplanet_]

Have you thought about looking for a audiobook or book deal, seems like writing a book could be good outlet for all your experience. This is just from someone who loves listening to good audiobooks!

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

I haven't but if there was enough interest I'd consider it!

[@enigma7993]

I had a question, isn’t there laws in the UK stating that apartments/houses have to be made to a certain sqm for you to add more bedrooms, e.g 2 bedroom apartments should be a minimum of 61sqm. I could be wrong tho, I just wanted to ask to verify?

[@WictorLeone]

Great content and really wel explained🎉. Kudos to you 🤜🏾🤛🏼 I think the biggest question I have is: How to raise the capital to invest on the first property?

[@zinima-og4nv]

Hi Ahmed, great video. Any ideas to raise capital privately. I have been in this work 7 years buying below market, expired lease etc. And looking to move away from the traditional bridging loan.

[@DorcasDiaries]

Have you thought about branching outside UK? Like Africa or Asia for example?

[@julianasjonusas]

Isn’t it difficult to get a freeholders permission to convert 1 bed into 2 bed flat?

[@sonia6106]

Very good content. Can I ask if you need planning permission to make one bedrooms into two bedroom flats? Would you have to tell land registry so that it is registered as a 2 bed now? Also, would you buy a flat in a block rather than a house which has been converted into flats? Would you need permission from the freeholder to do this?

[@lotannaagu2693]

How are you able to get a mortgage? Don't banks require you to prove an income?

[@Oanhbuifvn]

I’ve watched so many videos as well as attending the course, but your videos are the best, no BS talk, straight to the point, also very charming 😊. Thanks so so much for giving us so much valuable insights. Bravo 🎉

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

Happy you loved it!

[@MrYozkaya99]

Would you mind sharing this excel sheet with us please

[@yomiade9395]

I guess conversion of a 1 bedroom to 2 bedroom can only work if the property is a flat or can it work for houses where the rooms are on the first floor, if you know what I mean?

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

you mean a house which was converted into flats?

[@EC-ge3do]

I have never bought a property but I have a big deposit now and I want to do your idea buy a 1 bed and change it to 2 bed. I live in Hackney in London so buying in London would be easiest but I have a good feeling for Southend for some reason like the properties there will go up more than London. Can any1 would advise me what they would do in my situation ? Thank you very much :)

[@saadamin7]

Hi, Can you please share the details of your property agent and mortgage advisor? Thanks

[@maridelvelasco2660]

I would like to start my property portfolio. I have a mortgage that is nearly finished. I don't want to remortgage at this time coz my interest rate is low. At present im only paying 1.9% until March 2025. If I remortgage can I do limited company for my Residential house?

[@sonia6106]

Hello again! You mention leaving your solicitors details in the comments but I don’t seem to see it. Could you help with giving this again?

[@lolasbakes1906]

Hi Ahmed, great videos. When you go back to refinance - do you have to pay the new bank a deposit again? thank you!

[@salvadoreslava2009]

Could you please share the excel you show ?

[@outere2044]

Hello sir love your input i am Really learning alot, what is the minimum pm2 for a flat? I did not think u would get to out off that terrace house . Definitely like the sound of this strategy. Id love to speak with you?.

[@0hleg]

Don’t you need a stable income for an approved loan. And even then when you’re young they might not approve you no? How would you work around that

[@callumdempsey9082]

Did you have to get the freeholders permission before converting 1 bed flats into 2 beds?

[@saifchughtai830]

[@forhadahmed538]

Have you ever done this without planning permission?

[@reb6599]

Do you buy as a private buyer or thought a LTD?

[@UniversalSystems]

Another great video Ahmed. Regarding the 1-bedroom flats which you converted into 2 Beds within London, they come with parking spaces or not? I'm trying to understand whether it would be better to target 1-bedroom flats with or without parking spaces for conversion into 2-Bed flats within London. Thank you.

[@AniqaUddin-d3j]

Ahmed would you recommend a 9 to 5 job to fund for the first step into property investment? btw ur videos are honestly best!!!

[@ThatAhmedKhan]

A job can help for sure for the first one but eventually you need to get to a stage where you are able to raise money from investors as that is what will allow you to scale

[@davidcalvert-smith4633]

What year was this done in? As you were getting 3% remortgages, I assume it was 2021(ish). How much of this added value was natural price inflation between the date the price was agreed and the remortgage survey? Back then prices were going berserk. I have examples of properties that have made me look like a genius when there was a lot of Brexit fear - in reality 60% of the uplift in value was pure luck. (Not saying this is the case here) Do you have an example of something that was remortgaged in the last 8 months?

[@halkoumahmed9489]

[@xblParadise]

Thanks for the video! I'm really confused by the refinancing aspect. When you take out a loan again for 75% of the value, you're still in debt right?

[@Jimbo_Gringo]

Obviously bu5 you’re pulling out the added equity on the house that you have created

[@Bruh01234]

When u refinance do u have to pay back 2 loans I don’t really understand also is this called BRRRR or is that slightly different

It’s quite hard to explain on text I will try to make a full video on this

[@oskvrxd]

Would refinancing make it more difficult to get another mortgage for the next project ? Since youve now got a larger mortgage in theory ?

[@shxvxm7207]

No, in fact it’s probably the opposite as you’re building a track record with your lender. The mortgage you’re taking out services itself with the rental income so it’s low risk to the lender, they will happily lend you more money as long as you don’t default
