Selling a rental portfolio when you have had enough
Plenty of landlords have had enough. More regulation, higher costs, and more of your time going on properties than you ever planned.
Leaving does not have to mean a rushed sale of everything at once. It can be a plan, worked out around your properties and your timescale, that gives you your time back.
This might be you if
- Managing the portfolio takes more of your time than it is worth to you
- You want to reduce your holdings, or leave the market altogether
- You would rather deal with one buyer than sell property by property on the open market
Worth knowing, whoever you sell to
Take tax advice first
Selling investment property can bring capital gains tax, and the order and timing of sales can matter. Speak to an accountant before you commit to anything.
Know where each property stands
For each property, gather the tenancy details, any lender's consent needed to sell, and the current compliance certificates. It makes every conversation quicker, whoever you sell to.
