How To Start Your UK Property Portfolio From Scratch

🏡 How To Start Your UK Property Portfolio From Scratch 💸

My Financial Reality 📉

Just before my first pay arrived, on my very first job, my bank balance read: +£106.01.

That was all the money I had to my name. I owned no assets, yet the desire to own a piece of real estate burned within me fiercely. On the plus side, I didn’t have the burden of credit card or store card debts because no one would give me one. My personal balance sheet had a big fat zero on both sides: no assets, no liabilities.

My wage after taxes was £2,128. With the cost of living in London, it wasn’t extravagant, but it would have to be enough. It took about 14 months of aggressive saving to gather enough of a deposit for my first property in 2006.
