One thing tends to split the two landlords on the same street in this market, which one are you? Comment LAND and I’ll send you the vid.

Yes, the first few months can be tough. Nobody wants to hear it because everyone wants the immediate result.

The grind before the first deal is where most people quit. The ones who don’t are usually sat in the Academy two years later with a portfolio.

DM me “READY” if you’re ready to put the reps in and want to know more about my academy.

Being cautious is a sensible move not a weak one. With the get-rich-quick courses now that being flogged everywhere, taking the decision to invest wasn’t an easy one for Cav.

What got him over the line was a proper look at what the Academy involves and deciding it was a fit and that he was ready to do the work.

No pitch, no countdown timer, no Lambo in the background.

Cav’s secured seven properties. Sourced four onto other investors, bought one with his own funds, and he’s now in a Joint Venture where one project’s done and another offer got agreed last week.

Cav’s results as part of my academy speak for themselves. Not everyone reached this level, but what everyone in the academy gets is the confidence to get the first deal over the line. Everything Cav’s doing now is built off the back of that.

So how much are you actually looking at for an average buy-to-let in 2026, with the running costs stripped out?

For the sensible buy-to-let landlords, if you had 5 houses, you could be making around £25k a year from a low risk, low hassle portfolio - with no HMOs and no serviced accommodation. Not bad at all.

Comment LOW and I’ll send you the full vid with the maths.

The headlines keep writing the obituary for landlords and telling everyone rates are climbing, but they rarely show you the actual data.

The reality is rates have settled nicely between 4 and 4.5% for the average limited company buy-to-let, while rents keep rising on a supply and demand problem that isn’t going anywhere.

While everyone’s looking in the wrong direction, the gap between what comes in and what goes out is the widest it’s been since 2014.

Section 21 is gone. The no-fault eviction route landlords have leaned on for years has been wiped out, and that’s the line being used to panic everyone into selling this year.

The landlords offloading this year aren’t quitting because buy to let is finished. They’re quitting because they were never running a property business in the first place. The new rules just expose it.

Run it properly. Hold for ten years. Come find me at the end of the decade and tell me what your portfolio looks like.

The 25-point renting checklist is what I use to tick off every requirement and stay compliant with the 2026 Renters Rights Act.

Comment LIST and I’ll send it over.

Look at who these 220,000 leavers actually are.

They’re not operators, they’re accidental landlords with no system. Rents that haven’t moved in years. A decade of capital growth sitting there uncrystallised.

Section 24 quietly punished them, Renters Rights Act tips them over.

That’s not a collapsing market. That’s a clean-out. Stock moving from a generation that drifted into property to a generation choosing it deliberately.

Supply shrinking, demand flat to rising. You can work out where rents go from here.

The operators left standing are about to get paid for the discipline the leavers never had.

Comment RENT and I’ll send the video over.

220,000 landlords are quitting buy to let this year.

Renters Rights Act is in and the media has called it game over. Every accountant, broker and bloke down the pub is telling landlords to get out while they can.

Ten years I’ve been doing this. Heard the same panic every couple of years. Section 24 was meant to finish it, section 21 going was next and now it’s this.

The landlords I’ve watched quietly build real portfolios over that decade have one thing in common. They ignore the noise and follow the numbers.

When the whole room is shouting in the same direction, that’s usually my cue to look the other way.

220,000 leaving the market sounds like a crisis. The data says the opposite.
