I don’t know about you, but I get so frustrated waiting for those search emails to land in my inbox. By the time they do, everyone else has already seen the deal.
So this week, I decided to flip the script. I gave myself 15 minutes to go out and actually find a property. No waiting, no alerts — just me setting some quick criteria, jumping on the portals, and running the numbers.
In this episode, I take you through that exact process — and by the end, I had a real live property in Frome that came in at over 8% gross yield.
Here’s what I cover:
Why search emails make you passive.
How I set my investment criteria in minutes.
Where I went to search for live deals.
My quick yield calculation and how I ruled out the non-starters.
The deal I landed on in Frome, and why it stood out.
The key questions I’ll be asking the agent next.
Takeaway: You don’t need to wait around for deals to find you. With just 15 focused minutes, you can be looking at a property worth chasing.
