  • It’s a simple game until the government change the rules to get re-elected and end up telling you who to rent to, for how long, at what rent, tell you that you are forbidden to increase rent tell you that you can’t sell your property with vacant possession. Irish landlords are just caretakers!
  • Oh Terry . I am in the game 20 years. I wish it was that simple my friend. 😊
  • @nikkion2140
    Terry, you have just done the property investment training courses out of business! You are right sometimes you dont get the capital growth, depending when you entered the property market cycle. I can relate to that as I knew someone who bought an apartment in Dublin in 2005 and the price today (2020) is more or less the same as it was bought for! Merry Xmas and Happy 2021. God Bless.
  • Buy to let sounds great until your tenant stops paying the rent, references mean nothing, my advice to getting into the buy to let is DONT the word landlord is a taboo in this country,regulations are now set against the landlord, PRTB is a waste of space and is pro tenant.
  • Thanks Gerry...this is a great topic and I welcome how straightforward your presentation was! Great video as always.
  • @opencurtin
    You should go into where is the best place to invest urban v rural and what type , apartment V House ,
  • Thanks for the advice Terry, Im working away in the middle east. Im from Kilcock, when I take a trip home I'd appreciate having a consultation with you. All the best. Daniel
  • @d2chiro
    Excellent terry, would love to hear your thoughts on investing in a pension as a sole trader compared to having a property portfolio as a pension. I can see there are very attractive tax incentives to investing in a pension, not sure if something similar is available for property.
  • Hi Terry can I transfer my house to my limited company and what are the things to consider?
  • Good video TG. A lot of people have a huge amount of fear to get started in BTL. There is a TV show called nightmare tenants that adds to this. The biggest problem in Ireland is that the banks and mortgage companies have prevarocative stress tests on finances for eligibility for BTL mortgages. In the UK the BTL loan is easily attained at 20 % deposit and is based on the rental income of the property... not the landlord's financial stress test. Is that right?
  • @Prodrive1
    A Landlord cannot offset taxes by investing in a pension because the State considers rental income as "unearned income". This is unfortunate as one can pay up to 52% tax on the income. Insanity paying that to the State when we get zero public services for it.
  • why wait 5,10,15 years? the idea is to become financially free and you can do this a lot quicker with the right knowledge
  • Why doesn't he talk about Management company fees? Property Tax? Mortgage interest paid on top of principle? Tax on rental income ar 33%? mortgage protection rates? insurance costs? Solicitor's fees? etc etc unless you buy with cash or own mutilple homes, its a waste of time and will end up costing you, especially if market collapses
