Yes I'll send you details now

Hi again, I'm going to do a UK focussed property market zoom on Wed 15 March at 8pm London time. Message me for the Zoom details. Looking forward!

Sounds good. Were people thinking a forum / chat here, a Zoom, an in person meet up? (I know in person may not be that easy for Tiffany).

Here are things I'm currently researching:

-AirBnB rules in London generally as well as specific block of flat AirBnB rules

-Do blocks of flats have the same complex dynamics like condo associations in the US (e.g. harder to get mortgages if a certain percent of the building is rented out as opposed to owner occupied)

-Are flats above shops really such bad investments?

-How hard is it in practice to get permission from the freeholder to do an extension to a flat

-Auction documents reviewing/legal advice

(I already know the part of London I'm targeting and have worked out the US/UK tax impact of buy to let)

Cool. London or outside London?

Curious about UK rent control laws. Do they have them? What other laws make it easier/harder to landlord there?

 My group is interested in potentially investing in Eastleigh / Southampton. Do you have any knowledge or good info in those markets? 

Thanks so much!

We have six funds we have done and have raised money through each one happy to answer questions. If you go this route the first thing that pops in my head is if your investing overseas the taxes and potential laws of that country may govern.
