My Latest Refurbish Project (BRRR Step-By-Step) 2024

[@hearmenow909]

The refinancing part is the bit I'd like to learn more about.

[@nicholasthuraisingam4857]

Agreed! You hear a lot about "refinancing", but rarely do they ever discuss it in depth.

[@whiteskull20]

I would say thats the easiest part. You can call up any decent mortgage broker and ask for a day 1 remortgage. You can usually get an 80% mortgage right away and the rates are the same as any other straightforward mortgage.

£7,000 refurb? Amazing value! I also like how Samuel is prepared to leave the design decisions to others, and of course lucky enough to have great people.

[@davidwhitton5519]

Hi , I have a building company with all the contacts and best discounts. I could not do that refurbishment myself for £7000. When I say myself I literally mean doing all the work myself, no other labour. I call b.s on that one. If he had done he would have put the full breakdown on the video. I.e. kitchen purchase price including appliances and fitting. Bathroom suit cost, Tiling cost, painting, internal and external. Carpets etc.. That figure he gave is pie in the sky mate

[@danielt3497]

@@davidwhitton5519 That's not the only fishy thing in this video. The place he shows at 0:33 on right move is number 79 Lowson Street (which sold for £72,000 on 28 Sep 2018), and then he goes ahead and buys number 73. If you look online, number 73 Lowson Street was sold in 27 Feb 2019 for £63,000, and then was sold again 12 Jun 2020, for £68,000, so if he refinanced the place for 85-90k, he made a significant loss on this property. In fact he didn't even make money on the refurb...This video hasn't aged well.

You made a margin of £12k - (Your valuation for resale £85k minus cost of sale £64k, minus £7k refurb minus assumed £2k mortgage fees solicitors fees etc. You can’t pull your deposit out to use again because you haven’t added enough value or made enough money! After your agent fees inc initial fee you are getting £5k a year? Your mortgage interest will be at least £3500 a year so you make £1500 a year profit from rental before maintenance. A good example of how to keep busy whilst not making any money.

[@leonardohartanto8873]

Samuel: Reply this guys statement

[@danbolton6115]

He can pull out the 64K he put in, because he got a refinance acceptance which allows him to get a mortgage to buy the house in 20 to 25 years time typically, which if you do the numbers roughly at a interest rate of 2.5% and with 0 deposit (which he has said in other videos is the rate his mortgage broker gets him) would cost him £280 monthly repayment. £525 rent - £285 = +£245 passive income a month OR £2900 a year. Considering the property will, and already has from the refurb, appreiciate in market value over time (because that's the market trend in Darlington) its a "good example of how to keep busy" whilst getting RICH.

[@danbolton6115]

@@leonardohartanto8873 read my reply

[@c11yan]

Jack Hirst Sadly this is not the case. Property prices in Darlington (as with much of U.K.) have FALLEN since this property was purchased. Darlington is in the top 20 per cent of UKs most deprived areas (source gov stats). This is not and has never been an area of significant capital growth... similar houses were selling for £60k to £80k 15 years ago! It’s all online look for yourself! Zoopla and market stats broadly show the house has fallen in value by around 8 per cent or £5k within the last year. So it hasn’t even kept up with inflation so compounding the capital loss. A property like that is a btl with 80 per cent loan to value maximum so on £75k value £60k mortgage with a rate of 3.5 per cent and an arrangement fee of 2 per cent or £995. I go back to the salient points - he hasn’t added enough value, the market prices have subsequently fallen, it’s an area of social deprivation and the rental income after mortgage is £2k a year before maintenance. Deals like this simply do not make any money.

[@danbolton6115]

@@c11yan Point taken on the capital loss, Ive been looking into Darlington for the last few days and you make some good points. However, I think he would still breakeven and get a little extra if he sold the house. Also, he is earning a passive income and he refinanced the property so, he can invest again, so I do think he has made a good deal, regardless if he only breakevens on the capital appreciation of the house. Not a bad deal.

Great video, would be good to see the financials, like all the costs involved, solicitors fees, mortgage rate as well as what the property achieved at valuation after the refurb. I’m struggling to see a good rate of passive income after remortgaging at the market rate after refurb and paying the estate agents full management fees.

[@byardelectrical]

Please note any landlords reading this. If you’re renting out a property, a fuse board like Sam’s in this video is not sufficient. You now have to have an electrical certificate to rent and that board wouldn’t have passed. Makes me laugh a bit, he goes on about the kitchen being done but a decent landlord would always focus on safety first and foremost. Gas and electricity can both kill you in your own home!

[@squibworth]

I agree, I have a small portfolio but still think BRRR is achievable but at a minimum you would need ECIR (for peace of mind), Electrical Safety Cert (12 months), Gas Safety Cert (12) months and potentially a housing license - selective or otherwise depending on the area. I don't live up north but I have heard things are a lot cheaper - so wonder if £7000 as a total refurb is achievable. If it is then kudos! But then you have SDLC and legals...no?

[@talmanyurkovich4486]

Circuit 1 & 4 had visible scorch damage. 😂😂 And the ‘test’ for the boiler is flawed. Most boiler have pre-heat mode. Some can be perfectly fine but take 5mins to heat up if the pre-hear mode has been turned off to save gas.

Hi mate, it would be great if you could provide some detailed info on the financials of these. From the deposit and purchase costs and the refinancing to give a good idea of the money side. Not sure what remortgage costs and penalties are and if you have any good advice or in the trade info around this aspect. Any further info would be great. 👍

[@bradsherwin8149]

Cmon bro its easy to figure out, will take you five mins!! He's told you what hes paid, the refurb cost, rental figure and resale. Stamp duty and legals are piss easy and EA fees don't vary that much as the cost is mainly a percentage...

[@eztyson]

Agreed, actual hard facts would be useful. Sure you can work out what it could be, or might be... But what were the figures for sure. Was it a 75 or 80% LTV refinance? At 4 or 5% interest. What did refinance costs amount etc etc. Because if you’re looking to rise and repeat your funds on deals like this all the little financial details matter to keep hold of your initial funds. Beside detailing the hard numbers it’s a good video Sam, thanks for taking the time to walk us through it bud 🙌

[@bradsherwin8149]

​@@eztyson Where are you getting 4-5% interest rates from? My last purchase a year ago I got circa 2.7% within a Ltd company @ 75% LTV. My friends are getting even better deals @ 2.4% as mortgages with companies are becoming more popular due to tax reasons. If you've ever done a remortgage you will know the rough costs to refinance a property.

[@SimplyMore25]

Most of that 7k was the kitchen and bathroom because the carpet looks cheap and tacky

[@sderrick1]

According to the land reg the price was actually £72000 so if you add stamp and fees total cost was £76000. Add renovations brings it to £83000. Refinancing at new value of say £95000 , 75%LTV means he would get back £71250, so he has about £11000 invested. On to the renting. Monthly rent is £525. From that deduct agent fee £58, contingency £44, repair £30, loan interest £131 equals passive income per month of £263. Which is an annual return of 28% on sum invested. Not bad! And don't forget, he might be sitting on a nice capital gain in 10 years or so as well.

[@kaekhan7150]

Probably one of if not the best videos I’ve seen in a while so much detail has been put into this video and I’ve also gained a lot of knowledge from this, looking to see more videos like this and wish you the best of luck a long your way!

[@adym7201]

Great video! Would love to see this as a brrr ‘series’ or maybe a new book! By my calculations (if you had bought the property on a mortgage) you could potentially do what you did here on a £64k property starting with £13-16k + refurb costs which would result in... - Approx £230-£250 net profit monthly recurring - Getting all your deposit and refurb costs back to reinvest as soon as works are done (with the right lender of course) - and Capital Growth! (Stamp duty, fees, legals etc not included!) Nice little strategy 👍

[@DMC888]

You can’t buy with a mortgage and refinance onto a larger mortgage this quickly. You need to buy with cash or use bridging finance.

[@adym7201]

dmc Agreed mate, got a bit confused but your spot on

[@TheSchulz21]

@@adym7201 Yes, I think he was a cash buyer for the £64k and refurb cost. Thereafter he is now in a position to refinance, as he has the leverage. He now wants to gather all that he has invested through a buy-to-let mortgage in order to follow the same process. It's a safe strategy as the bank can just sell the house if he defaults on his mortgage payments or interest payments. In the meantime, he is acquiring around over £3,5k per annum after management and other fees and the house is hopefully increasing in value. I think the hard part is getting the initial outlay to make the first purchase, once the funds are in place, he can then continue to use this strategy and own multiple properties and then perhaps sell them off in 5 years time when the market is at its best, but in the meantime, if he has say 4 properties, has a passive income pre-tax of around £14k per annum, around £1,166 per month.

Really lovely refurb. Perfect finish.

7000 for a new kitchen new bathroom full decoration and carpets throughout I know it's cheaper up north but I smell bull crap

[@glwxnder3477]

Sean Mcallister depends if you shop right you could easily spend £7000 on both

[@mcallister8893]

And full house decoration and carpets throughout I dnt think so especially getting in outside labour

[@talebuttbitchton1267]

@@mcallister8893 carpet is dirt cheap bro. consumer prices are way inflated on this crap dude. If you know how to deal you can get all this crap cheap as hell

[@justathought274]

Sean Mcallister super cheap fit out. Awful carpet, blinds. Basic paint job.

[@saelaird]

Hmm.. might be possible. Not a huge house. I'd estimate 9k overall. 1k carpets, 1.5k decorating, 4k kitchen, 2k bathroom, 1k fixtures and fittings, all inclusive of labour.

[@tc_electrician5329]

As an electrician that house would never pass an Electrcial inspection and as a landlord you are responsible for making sure the electrical installation is in a satisfactory condition, for one not to invalid your insurance and for the safety of the tenants, furthermore every estate again I have worked with has required an electrical inspection for every rented accommodation. I would greatly consider ensuring that your properties all have a satisfactory EICR certificate, it needs to be treated the same as a boiler gas safety certificate. Hope this helps I'm trying to educate more people as many are un aware. Kind Regards.

How long do you have to wait until you can re-finance your loan?

[@blissweb]

Kitchen is awesome and glad the bathroom got done. Would have liked to have seen the whole refurb. Living room still a bit iffy.

[@LMAO-ef3ip]

brother could you please do one for a hmo rent to rent? would love you forever if you could, thanks again for great content and making the world a better place :)

Asking all the questions we need to hear. Learning so much already. Thank you Samuel.

[@seanstockton583]

Hi Samuel how much did you remortgage for and what sort of profit are you looking at per month thanks

[@aaron2995.]

Loved this!! Thanks alot, your educating me and others for free which is so generous! All the best

[@nickswales4101]

What was the re-valuation figure Samuel?

[@SamuelLeeds]

My application is for £90k, got the decision in principle but waiting on valuer to visit. Even if it’s downvalued a little I’ll still get money out as it’s an 80% LTV. Hope that helps. Will be sure to update down the line too!

[@nickswales4101]

@@SamuelLeeds if you do get that valuation looks like you will get your deposit and refurb fees out but not your purchase fees which could be around £5K including stamp, legals, valuation and mortgage/broker fees etc but still a good "little money left in deal"

[@BrickzwithTipz]

I'm a big fan of the theory of this video - first video I ever watched about BRRR. Currently doing the refurb of a property I bought using this method. I managed to get it BMV without much hassle as well. Video coming soon of whole project end to end on my channel.

Save your money. It's all a con........

[@NotoriousBBB]

The concept of buying and selling property at a profit isn't a con

[@natashapeprah8302]

Great video Sam. Real eye opener. Nice refurb. I can really see the potential.

[@aljanosm3158]

Also, how do you get a 2.2% mortgage at 80LTV? Best I can get on a 75LTV is 4.59% as a new investor with Ltd company. That 2.4% difference would be an absolute game changer for me!

[@googleuser7001]

Limited companies always higher I can get 2.99% all day off any btl provider

[@bradsherwin8149]

Are you going to the back room mortgage brokers in estate agents?

[@shanecostelloe4701]

Great video, was encouraging to see someone say it's nothing to be scared of. Would like more videos on the refinancing process,, seems daunting. Cheers!

[@Zupez]

Couple Questions: 1. How did you solve the damp wall issue by the front door/rough cost 2. If you're new to property and only own 1/2 properties surely it's better to manage yourself on the side of a full-time job?

[@MySamOD]

If you buy a property from the agent then you give it to them to let and managed, the you go in next week to buy another property you're instantly at the top of the list when deals come in. You'll never have a passive income if you self manage.

[@vascularlab]

Great video Samuel. It’s always nice when an investor if your calibre shares the process.
