Disclaimer: The videos on the channel are for entertainment only, and they should be watched light-heartedly as they are based on my research, experiences, and thoughts. Therefore, they should not in any way substitute for your due diligence research as I am not an immigration expert, real estate agent, solicitor, finance, visa, career, or educational consultant. Anything I say in the videos should be considered an opinion, not advice.
Likewise, I do not help with any application, and I will not contact you to ask for money (you see, the channel is gaining traction, and there are spammers in the comments session). The best I can do if you contact me is to point you toward professionals who might help you, send you links I think might be useful, and answer your questions to the best of my ability. 🤍
13:08 Just so you know, when you are at this stage of renting a property in the UK, you will need to do an affordability check and have to pay a holding fee to the landlord or letting agent.
This fee ensures that your chosen property is taken off the market and reserved for you while processing your application.
If your application is successful, the hold fee will be deducted from your first rent payment. However, if your application is unsuccessful, the holding fee may or may not be refunded. So kindly confirm with the landlord or letting agent before paying the holding fees.
I didn't know how else to contact you, but I just wanted to express my sincere gratitude for all your videos. I followed them diligently and experienced a hassle-free relocation. Now embarking on the house-hunting journey, but I'm immensely thankful. Your packing and other related videos were incredibly timely. May God bless you abundantly.
You are so welcome 🤗 I am delighted to hear that my videos were helpful to you.
I'm a new subscriber,thank you for this information.lovely vlog.
Thank you and welcome to the family 💐🍾🎊🎉🥂🫶🏾
Thanks for the video.
My question is about your new home, i understand that you do not want to dosclose it cost but can I know how much goes to your mortgage each month.
I cannot share that either, as I want to keep the actual baseline figures around our house purchase private, as it is not beneficial to anyone apart from my husband and me with the professionals involved in our house purchase. ❤️
I already provided the necessary information I believe can aid foreigners residing in the UK on a visa who are interested in purchasing a residential property through my house-buying series. th-cam.com/play/PLeWB5WMxXd2hyuOy3B39-01sxlqdNtF7G.html
In the series, I even shared the additional cost of buying our house in detail, which is the most I can share regarding figures.
I do hope you understand.
I find myself in a sutuation where my employer is not providing any relocation support, that is, no accommodation and or flight package, hence i have to do these all by myself. Can I ask my employer to pay for my rent and or depoisit so that we set up a debit scheme where I can pay back? Have you heard of this been done anywhere?
No, I have yet to hear of this being done in the UK, but there is no harm in asking. The worst your employer can say to your request is no, and the best they can say is yes.
Please how do I find an apartment 😩
