Everyone is a property expert so the comments will find fault like always. If you comment please also let me know what you do for a living as it’s easy to comment online without any substance 👌🏼

[@AseGamingPro]

1st and shout out pls❤😂

[@maneykler6502]

Should never judge a book by its cover. 💯

[@jasonpatterson365]

I agree with you Yianni. I invest in Enfield and Edmonton too and have been since 2001.

[@jamiehilton5195]

Well done looking great. Maybe fence the other side to.prevent future issues

[@jamiehilton5195]

Great work

[@abdulmuhaimin4666]

It would be epic if you have Daniel come and do "Rate my property" once this is completed. I can't wait for this project to finish

[@jacknicholls3907]

Charcoal filters are useless mate, plenty of room there to vent it…. From a kitchen fitter👍🏼 plus tenants are never gonna change the filters in them

[@HarkyOfficial]

As a Property Developer & Investor; Good to see you refurbished it fully and up to a nice standard. The kitchen extractor could have gone across and out above the boiler, as most tenants forget or don’t know they have to change the sheets. Have a relationship with the tenants don’t leave it all to an agent. They won’t care about the place as much as you would yet charge you extortionate fees. Pls don’t max out the LTV to 75%+, that’s how ppl get stung in bad times as we’ve seen over the last few years. And possibly wait until end of the year when BoE rates start dropping.

[@ceo3708]

Mate. Can’t have extractor fan near a flue. Your chatting absolute arse

[@EvanLeonDawod]

Interest rates won’t come down until mid 2025 at the earliest.

[@outere2044]

We are in a bad time now so if the numbers work now at 75% ltv why wouldnt u go to it as long as the monthly is payed with some cash flow.?.

Well done yianni. Transformation looks amazing. Keep up the good work bro 👍🏽

[@candacejohnsonuk]

Great job as always Yianni👌🏽 Keep up the good work

[@harrislondon]

What a difference even just a lick of paint makes. Looks great!

[@Scott-yu4yt]

Looking good. Bathroom looks great and I love how the large tiles are extended up. Bedroom 2 looks pretty small from the video but hard to tell before its furnished.

[@kershiimsimon6173]

Amazing work. Looking forward to the after and the cost brakedown

[@rj.reliable]

Loved the room with 1974 painted in white on the wall, that's what returning is about 😉

[@simonhayes760]

Hi Yianni, Love watching the conversion and you answering the negative comments from the feedback. Keep up the good work. Not all landlords are bad.

[@Andy-uf8jq]

That's very true, but most are, I've had 3 landlords, 1 was brilliant, 1 I never saw and wasn't in long enough to need to any issues fixing and 1 terrible, repeatedly found him in my flat with zero notice, once rummaging throughout my wardrobe, and he had the audacity to say I was in the wrong for (legally because he broke the contract and law) withholding rent until my tenancy ended.

[@KillerkoUK]

I love how you created perfect befroom downstairs.. I would do the same, but not really sure about those 2 tiny ones upstairs... you won't fit anything there except beds.

[@pharoahkenun999]

Yianni you are a amazing person & smart & business minded we need more like you 😊

Awsome renovation, and buzzin its not a hmo. Nice (good condition) family homes are needed!

[@cephasmakuzva]

Love seeing property videos. Youve transformed this into a nice home that a renter would be proud to call home.

[@Y14nny]

Yeah but the some entitled people in the comment section want more 😂

[@leechez7470]

Absolutely love these changes. As a new interior designer it’s interesting to see the phycology behind the owners. Good team is key. Yann you getting any others?

[@michaeljunior6770]

Love the fact you didn’t dodge the harsher comments

[@Y14nny]

Course not, been on KZbin a long time so you get them all so only right to reply

[@leechez7470]

Respect you answering the questions 👍🏼. It's amusing how your eagle eyes are so well trained, they spotted that door before your brain could even process it. 😂

[@waynuth]

@@Y14nny Sorry mate I disagree, you are doing a fantastic job why even bother replying to the negativity? I wouldn’t give them the time of day! Ps love the property you’ve really maximised the potential. As a property investor myself I would love to hear the figures so hoping you get to that on one of the later videos. ATB 🤙🏼

Looks amazing mate from what you started with cant wait to see the end result 👍

Loving the new content, Yianni 👌🏻

[@yiannimize]

Thanks

[@jackhuntington8679]

If I was in your position I would be doing the exact same thing. We live in times where people need money and housing so looking after yourself financially and giving someone a nice home is a win win

[@Y14nny]

[@mingli1241]

I’m in the US and it’s nice to see how other markets are around the world and how different building similar / differ as well.

[@kevmk2]

Nice to see Chris doing the boiler work. Top bloke he is.

[@JoelR574]

Great to see the renovation coming together. Are you doing a video regarding financial figures on the project?

[@Y14nny]

Yes we are.

[@5yko]

Key thing to look at is getting a better EPC rating. However getting rid of al the water ingress is key and internal or external wall insulation is a MUST. This certainly helps with mould issues and using less energy.

[@tessbushell5489]

Massive improvement,would like to see it with beds in the rooms as it blows my mind that down south some people live in some really small portioned houses 👍🏻

[@Y14nny]

Yep yep

[@alancobbin]

Looking good Yiann 👍

[@doostar6875]

Great work Yanni !!! Do up more work like this

[@Y14nny]

🙌🏼

[@impamiizgraa]

Respect for addressing the negative comments first because they were all things I was thinking (about landlordism and the effect on the housing market for aspiring owner occupiers).

[@madgebishop5409]

man , i could watch this kind of content all day..tbf i do but yeah this a great watch!

[@yiannimize]

🙌🏼

[@kevinkvs9746]

Well spotted yanni with the door, when you work in the car industry, detailing, wrapping things along those lines, you end up with a great eye for detail 👍🏼 I can spot very small details a mile away and sometimes it horrible, because all I see in live is negative things wrong with everything 😂

[@markevans3488]

I couldn’t understand why someone would go to the hassle of hanging the door knowing it was warped in the first place. Should have gone back to the supplier before wasting any time on it 🤔

[@yiannimize]

Lol

[@ibraheemtoure1201]

Would love to be mentored by Yianni. Your ethos and mindset is top tier and these videos are so insightful. Thanks for giving us a look in on the process

[@yiannimize]

🙌🏼🎉

[@masonwebster571]

Defo need to get that other fence done Yan will make that garden look so much better I know it may not be your responsibility but will greatly help the look of the property, looks great tho (comercial and property maintenance engineer for 10 years)

[@user-fs8lz9re2q]

Those rooms are so small, i wonder if he will publish how much he is renting each room out for, especially as its in London.

[@Y14nny]

Not turning it into a HMO. All will be revealed next video!

[@noshah11]

Really nice and warm ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@thebigdog7756]

Looks class nice refurb job bro

[@Y14nny]

Thanks

[@bruhder5854]

This is a good series

[@msutton3147]

Interesting series, and I have enjoyed both episodes. Glad you spotted that door, but I am struggling to understand why you would fit a door with such and imperfection, were they hoping you would not spot it and they would get away with it? Also as others have said, although its not your boundary fence, changing that other fence would be a good idea.

[@thedadmeister6392]

Great work so far, just a small comment about the bedroom sizes, obviously you are going for the HMO market so that makes sense.

[@carguyuk7525]

Most Landlords do a great job. This is example of best practice. Quality housing is essential. Landlords take a lot of risk for a small return. You should give a breakdown of costs and projected income. I rent a property and tax / maintenance means the take home is about 52% of earnings. Potentially I would get a better return in stocks and shares.

[@stigonetv58]

Looks good ❤

[@ToxicWarlord]

We need a cost breakdown at the end of the refurb!

[@T.T7934]

Inspiring!

[@Zamzinho7]

Can you tell us at the end how much everything costs Yianni? Like break down room by room etc? Would be really interesting!

[@sodhak]

Loveeeeeee this video - highlights how much most landlords have to pay to get things up to regs... Landlords get so much sh*t at the moment... This highlights the time, money and effort. Thanks Yanni

[@Daiyan1bn4Z4D]

Inspiration for sure

[@777FreeYoungThug]

great update, you seem to be finishing it to a higher standard than necessary for council housing which is lovely for the future tenets. Yes some of the rooms are small but it's tough for larger families to find housing so it's for the best to create more availability.

[@Y14nny]

Finally someone gets it 🎉

[@mh8316]

@@Y14nny LOL! Yanni acting like hes done this purely so the price of each room is lower and its therefore more affordable for people!!! That is absolutely not the case - you split the rooms up so you could maximise how much revenue you get. Nothing wrong with that - just dont act as if your 1st intentions are for the tenants when infact they are for your pocket.

[@brandonbishop9641]

Living the dream yian

[@markus4716]

Upper Edmonton is my manor! Looks fantastic and you have a really good team by the looks of it. Would love to have a go myself one day!

[@erelpc]

Go for it, mate. What's holding you back?

[@teddy6888]

That cooker hood should be vented out the wall using ducting above the units. A small (100mm) intake vent should be placed close to the floor to allow the extracted air to be replaced with fresh air. Charcoal filters only reduce cooking smells, the humidity will still be in the room which will result in damp and mould. Opening windows is never going to work with morden insulation requirements, the building regs need to be updated to include heat recovery air handling units with morden insulation levels.

[@yhshah21]

Good move with the bedrooms

[@agustincanavesi7604]

Yanni in glad your able to speak on the hate. Most people try to see how they can spend less instead of making more. Your doing good on you and your family investments are so important it’s so cool your doing this.

[@cheeksblaster6000]

That intro just blasted me ears bomboclaat

[@Y14nny]

[@ishcentral98]

keep making these maybe price the houses and compare them to the prices of certain cars etc to bring in the car element to it, but keep making these vids they are informative and fun.

[@nero5379_]

Attack would be good for small office/ storage and possible an open up sliding balcony set up would be nice but planning would be hard

[@ChristosLouridas]

Awesome one man at least unlike my landlord she doesn't care if the cables of internet are new etc.. Looks like you care about re wiring etc. Nice to see that. I went to ask her about fiber and even though we do have she said no... lol Can I ask out of curiosity what kind of internet speeds could we be looking in the area? PS. She actually has two 4 tenants in me my gf and another couple. The other couple has no internet at all in the day. I pay for a 100down and 10up and get 45down and 10 up (I know it's Greek speeds..). That's why I asked about the speed over there.

[@saadiqborez2231]

Real Estate Agent (Re/Max South Africa) here: Quint and cozy, love the property Yianni. I think you are making a great investment and maximising the space - be careful of over investing but it does not look like you did. A loft might be a slight over investment but I don't know the area so I would not know what the ceiling is for this particular townhouse. Lovely Yianni!

[@Y14nny]

🙌🏼

[@pauliboo22]

I’m an Aerospace engineer.. Well done for addressing those housing comments. I was aghast when you mentioned a HMO, as they truly are destroying the rental market. I’m a renter, I’ve had a mortgage and then I got divorced, and I’ve rented for the last 5 years. I’m pretty sure you’ll be a great landlord, and moving those tenants probably increased their health! Keep the videos coming, I’m really enjoying them. I almost moved in January, but I wasn’t happy with the agents managing the property, and I currently have a great relationship with my landlady, so be hands on with your new tenants if you can.

[@Y14nny]

Thanks for the comment. Wish you all the best 🙏🏼

[@davidebythomas5554]

Hi Yanni, would be interesting to see a price breakdown of how much it costs to do something like this and what type of loans are available for people who would like to do this for their own properties. Great content, thanks.

[@dannyhogi4953]

possible silly question how did you deal with the bad mold/damp situation also if it is through the council, my family member is having seriosuly bad mold issues and cant get much help so jsut curious thanks and progress/revamp looks great

Some of those rooms are looking pretty tiny. Once a bed goes in them, there isn't gonna be any room for anything else. What about a closet or some draws to put your clothes in, you know the bedroom essentials. Where will that fit in!
