Summary

We’re back with more listener questions on Ask Rob & Rob.

First up, we’ve got a question from a listener (who forgot to leave their name, so we’ve christened them Billy).

They’ve been hearing about lease options from a mentor, and wanted to know more about purchasing lease options as a strategy.

Does this make sense or is it a dated way of approaching property?

And next is a question we’re sure lots of you can relate to – what to do about EPC ratings?

James has just purchased a property that’s currently rated a D, and he wants to know what the best option is for him moving forward.

Tune in to find out.
