30 Property Golden Nuggets in 30 days!

We here at OraKai believe in sharing with our community and giving back. Over the next 30 days we're giving away property insights and golden nuggets.

We are counting down from Number 30...
TODAY is the FINAL NUMBER ONE! 🙌
_______________________________________________________
🏡 Lease Now, Purchase Later 🏡

You've heard of leasing a car and buying it later, right? Or perhaps rent to own? Did you know that property transactions can be structured in the same way?

Another party takes legal responsibility under a commercial lease agreement and purchases the property in the future.

What this means
🏡 Agree a purchase price today.
🏡 Agree an end completion date.
🏡 Agree a guaranteed monthly sum.

🤔 How about this as an alternative?
“If being flexible on when the property is purchased meant you didn't have to be flexible on price, would you consider it?”

Taking responsibility for the property and buying it don't necessarily have to happen on the same day. Someone could take responsibility now, pay an agreed amount and purchase later.

🛑 Important 🛑
Structured property agreements should be drafted by experienced commercial solicitors. Both parties should be independently legally represented by suitably qualified professionals.

🏡 Auction Puts a Date on Your Sale 🏡

If waiting indefinitely isn't working, could putting a date on the sale change things?

Traditional auction gives you:
A defined marketing period. A deadline. A reserve price.

Instead of:
“Hopefully somebody buys it soon.” you have a defined event.

🤔 Could this be another option?
Ask an established auctioneer what similar properties have actually achieved.

Same property. Different route. Different buyers. Different timetable.
You don't have to keep waiting indefinitely. Auction gives the sale a defined process, deadline and different buyer pool.

🏡 Sell Part Instead of Everything 🏡

If you need money, do you necessarily need to sell the whole property?

You may own more than the house:
Garden. Land. Garage. Outbuilding. Another separable area.

What this means
In the right circumstances, you could sell part while retaining the rest.

🤔 This could be another option
“If you only need to release some of the value, do you need to sell everything?”
If you need to release money, you may not have to give up the whole property. Land, garden, garages or another separable part could potentially provide another option.

🏡 Building Costs Can Change Quickly 🏡
The cost of doing work to properties can change substantially in just a few months.
Some insulation products alone have recently seen increases of approximately 40–50%, while other building-material costs continue to rise.
What this means
The cost somebody allowed for when they first viewed the property may no longer be the cost they're facing today.

🤔 Consider asking
“What has actually changed since you made your original offer?”
Things outside your control can affect the transaction. The cost of improving a property can change substantially while it's being marketed, even though nothing about the property itself has changed.

_______________________________________________________
🏡 Conditional Sale 🏡
If one hurdle is stopping a sale, could the deal be agreed subject to clearing it?

For example:
The buyer needs planning permission.

What this means
The price and transaction can be agreed subject to that condition being satisfied.

🤔 Could this be another option?
“If one thing is standing between you and a sale, could agreeing the destination first give both sides something to work towards?”

One unresolved problem doesn't necessarily have to stop everybody agreeing the deal. The transaction can sometimes be agreed first, subject to a defined condition being satisfied.

🛑 Important 🛑
Structured property agreements should be drafted by experienced commercial solicitors. Both parties should be independently legally represented by suitably qualified professionals.

🏡 “Priced to Reflect the Work” Doesn't Always Include Every Cost🏡

A property can be “priced to reflect refurbishment” and still not work financially for the buyer.

Finished value: £200,000 Works: £50,000 Suggested price: £150,000
Looks logical.

But the buyer also has:
Tax. Legal fees. Finance. Valuation. Insurance. Empty-property costs. Contingency.

What this means
There are costs that weren't included in the original calculation.

🤔 Consider asking
“When the asking price was calculated, what costs were included apart from the refurbishment?”

This explains why a buyer's numbers may look different from the agent's.

Refurbishment isn't the only acquisition cost, so an apparently puzzling offer may be based on costs that weren't included in the asking-price calculation.

✨Breadcrumb✨
Sometimes a transaction can work at one price if something else about the timing or structure changes.

🏡 Delays Can Kill a Good Sale🏡

The longer a property transaction takes, the more opportunities there are for something to change.

Mortgage products move. Chains break. Surveys arrive. Circumstances change.

🤔 What this means

A good transaction can become fragile simply because it's taking too long.

Instead of asking your agent:
“How's everything progressing?”
.. Ask:
“What exactly are we waiting for, and who are we waiting for?”

Don't accept “it's progressing” as an answer. Find out exactly what's outstanding and who is responsible, because time itself creates opportunities for an otherwise good transaction to fail.

🏡Your Competition Is Bigger Than Your Postcode🏡

Buyers don't necessarily search for homes the same way owners compare them.

They have:
A budget. A travelling distance. A list of things they need.

What this means
A property a few miles away that you'd never compare with yours could still take your buyer away.

Try this!
Search your asking price and postcode on Rightmove and Zoopla.

Expand out:
1⁄4 mile → 1⁄2 mile → 1 mile → 3 miles → 5 miles

🤔 Then ask yourself:
“What else could I afford?”

Your buyer has more choices than the houses immediately around you. Search as they search and see what else their money can buy.

🏡 Different Mortgage Lenders... Different Criteria🏡

Mortgage lenders don't have the same rules.
One may refuse something another will consider.

What this means
“The bank won't lend on it.”
does NOT equal:
“Nobody can get a mortgage on it.”

🤔 Consider asking
“Is it this lender that's the problem, or is the property itself difficult to mortgage?”

One rejection doesn't necessarily mean your property is unmortgageable. Different lenders have different rules, so find out whether the problem is the property or simply that lender.
