Key Topics Covered:

1. Why BRR Matters

  • Most investors run out of cash before they run out of ambition.
  • BRR is not just a “strategy”—it’s a way to keep growing your portfolio with limited resources.
  • Works for residential, commercial, and mixed-use properties.

2. The Seven Steps to BRR Success

  • Target properties others avoid (those with problems lenders won’t touch).
  • Calculate your offer: future value minus costs and a 20% margin.
  • Make fair offers—don’t be afraid to go below asking price.
  • Expect and embrace rejection; it’s part of the process.
  • Follow up with rejected offers—motivation changes over time.
  • Secure finance, fix the property, and add value.
  • Refinance at the new value to pull out as much cash as possible.

3. Creative Financing & Bridging Loans

  • Bridging finance lets you buy and refurb properties that need work, even if you don’t have all the cash upfront.
  • Build the cost of bridging into your deal—if the numbers work, it’s worth it.
  • Always take longer terms than you think you’ll need to avoid penalties.

4. Avoiding Common Mistakes

  • Don’t get attached to asking prices; base your offers on solid calculations.
  • Provide clear evidence of tangible improvements to valuers for successful refinancing.
  • Plan for potential overruns and down valuations.

5. Market Insights & Mindset

  • Despite higher interest rates and tougher legislation, rents have risen and BRR still works if you buy right.
  • The property market is seeing a “changing of the guard”—new investors are entering as older landlords exit.
  • Success comes from thinking differently and being willing to do what others won’t.

6. Advanced Tactics: Delayed Completion & Ninja Investors

  • “Exchange with delayed completion” lets you refurb before you own, sometimes pulling your cash out on day one.
  • Ninja investors operate under the radar, focusing on creative deals and properties most ignore.


Actionable Takeaways

  • Focus on properties with problems you know how to solve.
  • Always run your own numbers and stick to fair, calculated offers.
  • Use creative finance and networking to keep growing—even when cash is tight.
  • Embrace rejection and follow up—motivation changes.
  • Learn from experienced mentors and surround yourself with like-minded investors.
