Summary

Rob & Rob are back with two more property questions this week.  First up is Mo.   He’s a junior doctor who’s recently graduated from Nottingham University and is looking to get on the property ladder.  Mo wants to buy his own residential property but is struggling with finding the right one.   Naturally he doesn’t want to overpay and wants to try and bag himself a deal, but he keeps getting gazumped every time he finds a possible contender.   Other buyers are either viewing and putting an offer in on the same day a property comes onto the market or are just willing to overpay.  Is this something Mo is just going to have to accept or is there something he can do?  Our second caller this week is Steven.  He’s been listening to the podcast for a while and knows The Robs have said how much they love Liverpool and Manchester.   But what about Preston?   Steven has been doing some research into the location and thinks that it could be a good contender but is keen to find out what Rob & Rob think of it.  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.
