Summary

Hello and welcome back to another episode of Ask Rob & Rob. The guys are here to answer all your property questions and they’ve got another two to answer today. So let’s get stuck in. First up we’ve got Stephen who, after listening to the podcast, has decided he wants to invest up north or in the Midlands. He knows The Robs reckon Derby is going to be a good bet for 2021. But after Rolls Royce announced they’d be making redundancies and have had a change of strategy, he wants to know how The Robs think this is going to affect Derby? Stephen also wants to know whether it’s worth him looking at doing the work to invest in buy-to-let property himself or if he should get on board with a company like Property Hub Invest? Our second question this week is from Ayesha. She’s previously done an inventory on her property and used a professional that charged her £60 +VAT. Now Ayesha wants to know how often would she have to do this inventory? Does she need to get a new one after each tenant leaves or can she just keep the one she’s got and update it herself for each tenant? Or, is it a requirement that she gets a professional in to do it for her? Tune in to find out.   Do you have a buy to let or property investment related question for Rob & Rob? You could feature on the next episode by giving us a call on 013 808 00035 and leaving a message with your name and question (normal UK call rates apply). Or if you prefer, click here to leave a recording via your computer instead. The next question on Ask Rob & Rob could be yours. Have you joined us over on the Property Hub Forum yet? Our online community is friendly, informative, and the members are waiting to welcome you with open arms. So get yourself over and introduce yourself.
