Episode Description

Whether you’re eyeing up a leasehold flat or juggling property rules on both sides of the Welsh border, this week’s Ask Rob & Rob tackles two very different but equally common worries.

  • (00:46) Jessica’s found a discounted buy-to-let with just over 100 years left on the lease, but is the discount a risk worth taking? Rob B explains exactly when a short lease should start ringing alarm bells.
  • (04:01) Emma invests in Wales and is branching into England -, but the differences in licensing, notices and tenancy rules are overwhelming. Rob D breaks down why it’s less scary than it seems and shares a resource that covers both sides of the border.
