Landlord v Property Investor | Property Investing UK | Jamie York

Great video Jamie 👌

Hey Jamie I am from Scotland and very very motivated to succeed in Real Estate, I would love to work for side by side as a Book keeper to make calculations for your properties. I believe I can bring a lot of value to you and learn at the same time. Please add me on Instagram @the_vegan_buffalo.

Hi Jamie, another great content from you. I think I am fast becoming one of your biggest fans......we'll see where all this leads to 🤔

Hi, Jamie do you do that tipe of service?

I am working my way through all your videos. There is real value in everything here. I have even ordered all your recommended books from Amazon. You come across as very honest even when you have a bias you disclose it and I really appreciate that. Thanks for the great content!

Great points Jamie! There are differences between those two activities 👍

I suspected as much. Lol!

Btw, a residential 'property investor' is someone who invests in REITS on the stock exchange, not someone who gets an Agent to manage on their own typical standard terms applied to all their clients properties by exploiting tenants for maximum returns irrespective of their ability to pay by using them as a faceless commodity and removing from their tenants their perfectly legal negotiating rights. This is especially so, if you purchase with tenants insitu and they had a happier and better relationship with a proper hands on landlord before the property investor took over.

Who the hell needs a financial pimp in their life? They are supposed to buy the property, not their tenants life along with it.

Surely this investment property model has massive legal implications, doesn't it? An s.3 notification is supposed to contain the 'landlords' address. A s.48 notice an address for which to serve Notices, which would include any legal notices to base a Civil Action Claim (if that should ever arise) not just the more typical 'wobble door knob' alerts and other such mundane routine property management issues.

Wouldn't I be right in assuming that the managing Agent of a Property Investor who isn't hands-on is really the landlord themselves, even if they don't own the property or any part thereof, if they make the policies that tenants have to abide by or agree to regarding day-to-day management? The property investor may not even know what those Agent policies are, let alone agree to them. All they will care about is renewing the Agent contract because there has been no issues that affect them, and taking whatever money comes through to them, once the agent takes their cut.

I should also like to know how a tenant could sue a limited company Director - by making a civil claim for compensation - even if it turned out to be the landlord the court sent the Claim form through to if that company Defendant is merely a channel to which to filter funds to another company used to distribute such monies either to themselves or to whoever or to reinvest etc, and so it normally has no residual funds left in it that could be used to pay out compensation to tenants who the courts found in favour of (they won), in the event of a dispute. The landlord company could merely act as a shell; the Director could even just shut it and open up another company. What then?

These matters are critical and yet I see no one addressing them. Corporate landlords are becoming more prevalent and it seems to me that this could potentially undercut and undermine the protections that tenants should have to compensation if the true landlord is either disguised by name or if not disguised, they are protected from liability or if found liable it has has no funds to pay out the compensation because funding has been channeled to a third party company the tenant cannot access for legal reasons.

Jamie, could you possibly do an interview with a contract or property lawyer on this subject? I am sure that many viewers would be interested in this, whether landlords or tenants.
