Great detailed video, unfortunately there are many fake gurus out there and not many people are talking about them... Samuel Leeds is one of the worst right now
Please check out Liam Ryan Assets For Life. I was recently pressured into buying my seat at their 3 day upcoming programme at a “discounted rate” but I have doubts so asked to extend the deadline. In the initial webinar I watched he used the same language and acronyms you described in the video.
There are so many out there. Most training companies have them stand on stages. They are prior students who speak the same spiel in the courses. Like Shaf said: "Believe they are guilty until proven innocent" Sunny Mahal: www.sunnymahal.com - with the most incredible testimonials ever. You should try to work with him Shaf he could mentor you. Superficial nonsense with fake smiles and no substance. Fantastic disclaimer on his website. Paul Smith: www.touchstoneeducation.co.uk/our-story - wow the sob story con man who sheds a tear at the same story each and every time fooling people now slowly coming back into the industry. Jason Cunningham: www.jasoncunningham.co.uk/ lost for words with the guys egotistical views. CCJs up to his eyeballs. Glenn Armstrong: www.glennarmstrong.com/ - ruined many lives too allegedly making 76 millionaires. 6 figures in 12 months. These furus use a combination of slick speaking to lie about their experience, life and actual experience to fool people into parting with their money. We could go on forever. Samuel is leading the line due to his larger profile but these will follow. The cretin uses gods name for his morals and does a kumbaya approach at his meetings. It is despicable. Regulation is needed for anyone who makes false claims taking money from innocent people.
Nice video. Like all of these "guru's" in property and other industries, Samuel Leeds uses the 'contrepreneur formula'. I'm sure you've seen Mike Winnet's video. These guys basically make their money from selling courses and very little else. I lost money with a property guru named Phil Martin 15 years ago. He sold courses and boasted that he owned over 100 properties. He is now in jail and it turns out that he owned just 5 properties. So basically these guys make their money from the selling the courses. That's it. Also see coffeezilla's youtube channel. He exposes fake internet guru's.
@harbster2 t hanks for the feedback. I have bumped into a couple of fake gurus recently. You are right they are just conmen. Anyway I have loads of real property content which I will be putting on my TH-cam channel so please do subscribe and spread the word.
Essential viewing, we are generally poor at making good decisions based on complex information at short notice. There's also a big difference in integrity between companies that overcome objections using thin air reasoning versus those that draw on demonstrable evidence.
Hi Shaf, I wish this video was around when I first found about "Property Investment" Education and Coaching I could have saved loads of wasted time and money. Still you live and learn and a very important,insightful and informative. Most Companies are making money from "Property Investment" Education rather then making money from actually "Property Investing!"
Yes the Property Education Companies courses are a waste of money. We can rather spend that course money to buy a property in the Midlands or North England
Probably the most poignant video yet Shaf, so many scammers out there, good to see you highlighting the issue and showing people how to avoid these. Keep up the good work!
Shaf, it really is refreshing to hear a voice in what can be the murky world of property investment/ training and someone who unearths the truth. Seen it to many times how people get embroiled with these types of “services” and end up ruining their financial stability. Keep up the great videos. M
I hate those type of guys, "no risk" that's an outright lie red flag right there walk out no such thing as no risk in business. Nothing wrong with bmv opm deal packaging etc but if they are or unexperiencd or there is no way to take them to court for your money back if they are tricking you then theres everything wrong with that. If they dont even know how to buy low despite market value they probably dont know anything they are claiming to teach as thats a basic walk out.
Thank you so much some one was just trying to get me to sign up for a course. I didn't and then I found your channel. I could have wasted months of hard work and money!!!!!
Great video Shaf. Used to always see this advertised in my local paper and good to know that it is simply a hustle. Like always I enjoy watching your videos and learning from it 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
Hi Raf progressive property seems exactly like u said making pressure sales hard sales tactics their master class tactic seems decent but they make out its easy only need 5 to 10 hrs a week etc
Great video, Shaf. Question: do loan covenants, DSCR and ISCR affect a normal BTL mortgage if you only have 1 or 2 BTL properties? In your example of the landlord having to pay the bank £7000 for every £10,000 drop in value of the house, is this true for a normal interest-only BTL mortgage?
Matt, there is no such thing as a plain Vanilla Buy to Let mortgage loan agreement . I think your question warrants a detailed response. I will do a video on it in early 2020.
@@ShafRasulWealth It seems like if the value drops by say £25k on a £100k house and you have a 25% deposit then you'd have to pay the lender 25% of £75k to keep your 25% in the deal.
@@mattkimber4931 If you buy a property for £100,000 with an LTV of 75/25. That means you have mortgaged 75 percent (£75,000) and put in 25 percent (£25,000) yourself. if the value of your property dropped to £90,000? To stay within the terms of the loan covenant, he would have to give your lender £7,500 to be compliant. To stay within the LTV covenant, for every £1,000 drop in value, you have to hand over £750 to the bank. Therefore, if the value fell to £75000 i.e. a drop of £25000 you would have to hand over (25 x £750) £18750
@@ShafRasulWealth thanks for the detailed reply Shaf, and Happy Christmas! Just to check - you'd have to hand over that £7500 only when your fixed rate BTL mortgage ended and you have to remortgage with possibly a different interest rate? So the gamble is whether house prices and mortgage interst rates are rising or dropping? That's quite a gamble given the new bank of England governor doesn't have Mark Carney's super low rates reputation and Boris's Brexit plan has created certain uncertainty! I don't want to sound like a doom monger, but I'm hesitating for the moment on BTL projects.
This tune constantly playing in the background drove me crazy. It plays on a 20 second loop and even within that 20 it repeats the melody 4 times which means in this 12:38 video it plays 151.6 times for crying out loud!
Hi Shaf, I've had mortgages for around 15 years and not heard of these things. At what point or what would be the initiator for the process of a bank to call in the mortgage covenants or even know that the value in your area has fallen? E.g. would this be at a time of refix rate with the same bank? Or re-mortgage with another lender (so they'd want a fresh appraisal/valuation)?
I very much appreciate your informative videos Mr Rasul and if you ever would consider having unpaid staff to fill your coffee cups or anything else needed , l would be delighted to learn from you. Genuinely Pawel Butryn
Constantin Neacsu Good question. I have been thinking it through. If house buyers decide they are going to stay at home to limit potential contact with other people. This could potentially have a negative impact on prices.
Shaf, do you have plans to expose furus in other countries? What do you think of Dolf de roos? He seems to be pretty legit and been in the game for a long long time and wrote a couple of books for residential and commercial Property Investment.
