Finance For Landlords
We had a panel of finance experts at our November members meeting organised for us by Carol McFadden of Abacus Financial Options.
All of the presentations from that night and some of the supporting materials are available in the members area of the PDPLA website.
During the evening we heard some interesting war stories from John Webb of The Loan Partnership and also had updates from Roz Cawood of Masthaven and Peter Turner of Shawbrook Bank. Carol also alluded to the need for a property CV and the template she recommends is accessible here.
About the author
Martin began his landlord journey 30 years ago, while working in an international role for a global telecommunications company. Since retiring he has extended his portfolio, which he manages with his wife, but has always focussed on the ‘small student HMO’ sector preferring to offer homes in the community for small groups to the more common ‘pack them in and take the money’ mentality. He has chaired the PDPLA for the past 12 years and has overseen the Associations transition from small local self-help group to a much larger and more professional institution which is recognised and listened to nationally. Alongside his PDPLA role, he also has leadership roles in a number of other local organisations – bringing his unique perspective, driving for change and increased use of technology while respecting the history that brought us here.
