If you want to build a full-time income from property in the UK, everything begins with sourcing.
Not one deal.
Not a lucky find.
But consistent weekly activity.
In Episode 1 of Next Deal, we kicked off the real engine room of our business — analysing, viewing and negotiating on real properties every single week.
This week alone:
This is what building momentum looks like.
Before we book a viewing, every property goes through structured deal analysis.
We use Property Assistant — our own sourcing and analysis platform — to stack deals automatically and calculate:
We don’t guess.
We reverse-engineer from the end value backwards.
If the numbers don’t protect margin, we don’t waste time viewing.
That’s how we narrowed 10 properties down to 5 viewings.
This week’s viewings took us across Morecambe and Bare.
When we attend viewings, we already know:
The viewing isn’t about “Do we like it?”
It’s about:
Out of five viewings:
Being decisive saves time and protects capital.
Two properties made it through full analysis and physical inspection.
Asking price: £150,000
Our offer: £120,000
This offer was based on our full cost breakdown and required profit margin.
The sellers received a higher offer — so we moved on.
No emotion.
No chasing.
The numbers come first.
Asking price: £200,000
Our initial offer: £170,000
Counter offer: Higher
Final agreed price: £175,000
Offer accepted.
That’s a £25,000 discount from asking.
More importantly — it fits our model.
Property negotiation in the UK isn’t about being aggressive.
It’s about being justified.
When we submit an offer, it’s backed by:
Agents take you seriously when:
We lost one deal.
We secured another.
That’s sourcing in the real world.
One of the biggest myths in property is that deals just “appear”.
They don’t.
They’re filtered.
Out of 10 properties:
That’s a 10% conversion rate from analysis to accepted offer.
This is why weekly sourcing activity is non-negotiable.
Consistency compounds.
We’re not doing this as a hobby.
We’ve stepped away from contracting and committed £150,000 of our own capital to building FAA Property full-time.
That means:
Flips are our Phase 1 strategy because they create liquidity and income.
BRR will build the long-term portfolio.
But first, we build momentum.
Every deal we pursue goes through:
The £25,000 discount isn’t luck.
It’s process.
When we structure projects offering 10% returns, they are backed by disciplined acquisition — not optimism.
Capital protection comes first.
You will:
But if your process is tight, eventually:
The right deal lands.
Walton Avenue is our first accepted offer of the series.
It won’t be the last.
With the deal secured, the focus now shifts to execution.
Can we:
That’s what comes next.

Follow along.
Each week we share:
No fluff.
Just the real process of building a property business deal by deal.
Episode 2 is next.
And the momentum has started.
