Common questions
What does BRRR stand for?
Buy, Refurbish, Refinance, Rent, often with a second R for Repeat. It is a method of recycling your deposit through forced appreciation.
Can I refinance within six months?
Some lenders apply a six-month ownership rule before they will lend on the new value, though others will consider it where value has been genuinely added. Check lender criteria before you buy.
What if the valuation comes in low?
You leave money in the deal. That is the central BRRR risk, which is why the appraisal and the surveyor preparation modules matter more than the refurb itself.
