It’s time for your latest edition of Ask Rob & Rob! 

  • (0:51) Rick owns a buy-to-let property with his business partner, which provides good yields but slow capital growth. With £50K to invest, he plans to start his own property portfolio, focusing on capital growth and rapidly increasing his number of properties. Unsure of the best strategy to achieve his goals, he turns to Rob & Rob for their advice. 

 

  • (5:16) Luke’s disputing the service charge on his leasehold property as the cost has quadrupled this year without any explanation. He’s requested to see individual invoices and receipts for the maintenance costs and wonders if he has the right to this detailed information and if the freeholder is obligated to provide it before he makes the payment.
