You are right without being n the UK sourcing deals for profit would be rather hard.

To start with rents are not as high down there as they are in N Chatt or even other parts of town.  

Having some difficulty buying proper property to fix n flip.

I've started with fix n flip ( have 2 JV n working on 3rd).

I am based in Chicago, IL and I love it for short-term appreciation plays like fix-n-flip and rent to own.

@Roy N. - That is an external facing door.  

Thanks @Lacey N.

i do not mean go into debt like crazy i mean something small to boost your score such as a prepaid card from your local bank, just talk to them about building your credit and they should surly have some options. coming out of the gate with good standing credit will put you in a better position than most to start investing also if you are working saving up what you can would help depending on which market you desire to jump into, fix & flip / wholesale / buy n hold. also i would recommend learning to analyze a deal.

PM me if you need a bird dog for singles, multis, wholesale, fix-n-flip, or whatever.
