Nobody has advised me, that's why I'm asking for advice here, this is only option I was aware of as parental financing is not an option.
Please reread the question. Who has advised you on this great opportunity that you wish to invest in, and who is willing to enter into a contract with you?Gone ... or have I?0 -
I have been looking around at local property opportunaties for a while. And the contract which I believe you are mentioning is on a property containing a tenant for a minimum of 6 months, thus providing a guaranteed income.0

You are basing this on nothing more than a hope. just because the tenats signs a 6 month contract does NOT mean they will pay the 6 months!if they do not pay, you need to be sure you can cover the cost of the rent until you can remove them, you will also need to have enough to pay the fees etc. Letting a property can make money but also can cost you ££££ if you get a bad tenant. you need to have extra money for the following:
tenant not paying rent
any maintenance issues that arrise
tenant legging it!
tenant trashing house
