Absorbing a Portfolio Without Breaking

Finance, management and turning someone else's tired stock into yours

Completing on a portfolio is the easy part. This book is about absorbing someone else's tired, often neglected stock and turning it into a calm, well-run business without breaking financially, operationally or personally. It shows you the systems that let you take on one portfolio and then the next, reliably rather than heroically, and the team you cannot do it without. The finance chapter explains why heavy borrowing is so tempting and how to fund growth without leaving yourself exposed to a rate rise or a run of voids. You will see how software reduces the administrative load and helps prevent the quiet compliance failures that most often trip up a growing landlord, and why risk grows faster than income as you get bigger. The book is honest about where self-teaching stops working and ends with a twelve-month scale plan. This is the final book in the Buying Portfolios series.
