Development Tours Ep1 l “Converting 1 house to 3 flats”

How much can you make with property development in London -and what does it take to be very profitable at it? We’ll tackle those questions and a lot more in today’s episode of the Development Tour with our friend Alex, the founder of AA Drafting.
A scroll on Rightmove led Alex to find this deal. He shares his reasoning for choosing this particular property out of the 1000's of similar houses, which makes for great advice for anyone looking to complete a similar kind of project!
When Alex saw this property, 3 things made his property conversion checklist. He looks for properties with a size of 130sqm, a front (for car parking) and rear garden (for amenity space for the flats), and side access to be able to access the rear garden and bin stores.
We’ll get Alex insights on organising your utilities, making sure that they are all being organised to be installed at similar times at key project milestones.
He’ll tell us what it all costs to get it to this high standard and what interior design decisions were made. We’ll also get to see his favorite flat in the building and the challenges he faced, and how they were overcome which led to such phenomenal end-product.
Let us know below which flat was your favorite in the comments!!

This is really nice with very high quality finishing ... bravo 🎉

[@jayeezy7410]

Good transformation, I like the colour scheme and high finish. I agree with Kazy, bathroom 3 is amazing and the best out of them all.

[@Ahmaio]

Those are my sons, I'm so proud of you my babies, after all the bullying and atomic wedgies you both finally pulled through and become a success, I think I'm ready to be in your life now

[@imanahmed4887]

Nice to see end product but in future would be useful to talk through planning permission stage and if bought with it without plus floor plans on how to achieve maximising number of dwellings

[@ositaeze5237]

I really like that you are keeping it brief and direct to the point. No drama. well done !

[@nemiwoghiren]

Well done guys, would you mind sharing a Schedule of Works template for conversions ?

Really liked this, can AA drafting also recommend and connect us with the right builders?

[@AADraftingSolutions]

Hi Yes we can pop us a message through the website and we'd be happy to help recommend builders for you.

[@gishanidesilva7958]

Did you find good builders?

[@godfriedmensah3768]

Wicked - do one such project a year and I'll be very happily retired from now!! need to reach out to Alex @ AA Drafting. . .

[@AADraftingSolutions]

We're happy to help drop us a message on instagram or the website when ready

[@khajasameermohiuddinmohamm8400]

Thanks for sharing this video kazy, great fan of ur work.

[@mkyuen8349]

Flat 3 is the best. Would you talk about how to find such deal in Rightmove? How can one spot out the potential of such property?

[@AADraftingSolutions]

Try to look for properties in their existing state over 130m2 with side access. This is a good starting point

[@brandontaylor2400]

Looks sick, flat 3 defo my favourite

[@PropertyJourney]

❤

[@jonathanclogg]

Nice development! What neighbourhood is that pls? Is 130 sq M the minimum required to convert to flats in all boroughs?

[@MajorReviews-i3l]

Really nice project. How long did it take to complete, from purchase to the final product?

[@sahab999]

Do you sell the entire building without creating leases individually for each flat?

[@Bob-Mann]

My brotha ❤

[@mohammedqasim5221]

This is nice

[@sagarnatvarlal3782]

Please can you share the floor plan for all 3 flats

[@mrboateng_]

what about the garden who will own it? as its separate flats

[@STARZldnlyfe]

Where do they put these properties to rent online

[@vida2515]

Didn’t really see the ground floor?

[@MasterVSolo]

Great video, how long did the project take from start to finish?

[@AADraftingSolutions]

Hi The project took 8 months to complete

[@MasterVSolo]

@@AADraftingSolutions did you only have to get permission for the loft as nothing external was being changed on the ground and first floor?

[@AADraftingSolutions]

@@MasterVSolo Hi, We included a Double storey Rear extension and GF wrap around extension to the main planning application. The Dormer Loft was completed under PD. These 3 extensions were needed to achieve the size requirements for the flats.

[@weichengcn]

What is the address of the property?
