Meet Hassaan

Hassaan, who lives with his extended family in a spacious house in a prime area of Ilford, contacted us about building wealth through property. We found that his family’s outgoings were relatively low compared to their substantial combined income, as multiple family members worked and contributed to the household expenses. Their house had only a small mortgage, making them ideal candidates for leveraging their existing property to invest in additional real estate.

Hassaan's Investment Journey

​

Initial Consultation

Hassaan approached me with a desire to diversify his family’s investment portfolio while adhering to his religious beliefs. During our initial consultation, we discussed:

​

• Financial Objectives: Hassaan aimed to generate steady rental income and explore property flipping for significant lump sum profits.

• Budget and Financing: He wanted to leverage the equity in his family home to finance new property investments using a Sharia-compliant mortgage.

• Investment Timeframe: Hassaan was looking for both short-term and long-term opportunities to balance immediate returns with future growth.

• Religious Considerations: Ensuring that all financial transactions complied with Islamic principles was crucial for Hassaan.

 

Developing a Personalised Strategy

With a clear understanding of Hassaan’s goals and constraints, we developed a tailored investment strategy:

​

• Market Analysis: Identified high-growth areas with strong rental demand and potential for property appreciation.

• Property Selection: Focused on properties suitable for both rental income and flipping opportunities.

• Financing Solutions: Worked with a broker to secure a larger, Sharia-compliant mortgage on the family home, drawing funds to invest in additional properties.

​

The Investment Process

​

Step 1: Leveraging the Family Home

• Mortgage Refinancing: Collaborated with a broker to refinance the family home, securing a larger Sharia-compliant mortgage based on the home’s equity. This provided the necessary funds for further investments.

• Fund Allocation: Strategically allocated the drawn funds to ensure optimal use for purchasing investment properties.

 

Step 2: Property Search and Acquisition

• Property Identification: Found a house in a high-demand location. The property was undervalued due to cosmetic issues but had strong structural integrity and potential for appreciation.

• Negotiation: Secured the property for £15,000 below asking price through strategic negotiation, ensuring Hassaan got the best deal.

• Financing: Utilised the funds from the refinanced mortgage to purchase the property.

 

Step 3: Renovation and Improvement

• Planning: Developed a renovation plan to modernise the property, focusing on increasing rental appeal and market value.

• Project Management: Managed the entire refurbishment process, hiring skilled tradespeople as required.

• Quality Control: Ensured all work was completed to the highest standards, enhancing the property’s market value and rental potential.

​

Step 4: Tenant Placement and Property Flipping

• Rental Strategy: Marketed the property to high-quality tenants via estate agent. Within 2 weeks, secured reliable tenants, resulting in a steady rental income stream with a 7.4% yield.

• Flipping Opportunity: After a year of rental income, identified another undervalued property with high flipping potential. Guided Hassaan through the purchase and renovation, resulting in a 18% profit upon sale within six months.

Hassaan’s Testimonial

​

"At first, we were really unsure about remortgaging our family home, but working with Daniel has been an eye-opener. He put us in touch with a mortgage broker and solicitor, both of them were excellent. He presented us with several property options that gave us exactly what we wanted, and when we were ready to move ahead, he handled everything for us, including the refurbishment work and working with the estate agent to find tenants. The entire process was a lot smoother than we ever could have imagined to be honest. We wouldn't use anyone else for our property investments. I highly recommend anyone with an interest in property to call Daniel. I'm glad I did." - Hassaan
