E26: The Scottish Rental Revolution with Conar Tracey

E26: The Scottish Rental Revolution with Conar Tracey
In this episode, I'm joined once again by one of my business partners, Conar Tracey, to discuss our monthly recurring webinar known as the "Scottish Rental Revolution."The "Scottish Rental Revolution" is a transformative educational platform that offers in-depth insights into how you can establish a highly profitable buy-to-let property portfolio in Scotland, all without the need for your own money!Since the start of REWD Group, we have built up a residential Buy-To-Let portfolio of over 250 properties across Scotland, with a £13.5m asset value and a gross monthly rent roll of over £100,000.  We have achieved this level of growth by utilising funding from private individuals as well as commercial banks.  With new funding support, we are confident to repeat (or surpass) this level of growth over the next 3-year period.  Ultimately, over a 10-12 year period, we expect this growth multiplier to repeat several times.As we grow, our level of capital appreciation grows with us.  We mainly purchase to have the ability to recycle cash and for cashflow, so whilst capital appreciation is not a critical part of our investment analysis it is something to factor in over time.  On average, in Scotland, property prices are doubling every 10-12 years, so we expect our asset value to (at least) double during that period.As well as our own efforts to create more housing stock, we also educate others to do as we do, and help them along the journey, every step of the way.  Since the creation of REAL Property Scotland, we have educated and assisted over 100 people to achieve goals they never believed were possible.  The more people we educate, the more people can contribute to the solution for the problem, which ultimately reduces the timeframe and increases the productivity of our operation.Sign up for the webinar: Home Page | Scottish Rental RevolutionYou tube:   @RealpropertyTrainingInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/Rewdgroup Join our Real Property Community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1224232164973501Our Book: Fast track to Property Millions: Fast-Track to Property Millions: Amazon.co.uk: Duncan, Laurie, Robertson, Alex, Tracey, Conar: 9781739854379:Your Host:Alex Robertson is a self-made property investor and businessman.

E15: The most ESSENTIAL business tool for most SME Entreprenuers with Paul Barry
Paul Barry SSAS Specialist gives us an insight into the world of pensions for small to medium sized business owners. The Small Self Administered Scheme pension (SSAS) is a massive business tool, to help scale your business, save huge amounts of tax and extrapolate you wealth in the long term.Key takeaways:- SSAS pension can be set up for anyone who has a trading business- A SSAS puts the Entreprenuer in control of their own pension funds- You can make contributions to the pension and avoid paying Corp tax on those contributions- You can lend back up to 50% of SSAS funds to help the business grow.- Trading businesses can contruibute up to £500k of profits in one year (not the usual £60k pension contribution limit for an indivdual.- The SSAS can own commercial property and can rent it back to the business. The business gets a tax deduction for the rent and the SSAS doesnt pay tax on the receipt.- SSAS is a trust so protected from inheritance tax.- A whole host of investment can be made from the SSAS as long as it meets HMRC criteria and its something that can be valued.If you want to find out more you can speak to Paul or contact him:Paul Barry - The SSAS Consultant Reference: "REWD Group" for special offers on your SSASThis is not Financial AdviceLike, Subscribe and Share for weekly podcasts!Our story on Starting Real Estate Wealth Development and going for 0-200 properties in two and a half years: https://rewdtraining.co.uk/essentials...Following Real Property Training, for more tips on property investing:You tube:   @therealwealthpodcastInstagram:https://www.instagram.com/therealwealthpodcast/ Join our Real Property Community on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1224232164973501Our Book: Fast track to Property Millions: Fast-Track to Property Millions: Amazon.co.uk: Duncan, Laurie, Robertson, Alex, Tracey, Conar: 9781739854379: Your Host: Alex Robertson is a self-made property investor and businessman.
