ASK306: Are big companies going to push us out? PLUS: Can I get a mortgage on a concrete-constructed flat?

ASK306: Are big companies going to push us out? PLUS: Can I get a mortgage on a concrete-constructed flat?

By Rob Bence and Rob Dix from The Property Hub

The guys are back with two more listener questions! 

First up is Matt from Devon. 

Matt has built himself an investment portfolio that’s continuing to grow but wants to know whether big businesses are bad news for landlords like him? 

With the increasing trend of big businesses such as Lloyds Bank and John Lewis moving into the residential property market, are private landlords going to be pushed out? 

Rob & Rob share their thoughts and advice. 

Our second question is from Ben. 

Using a mortgage, Ben bought an ex-council property back in 2005 and when he tried to remortgage in 2011 he was advised that the property is no longer mortgageable as it was constructed with concrete. 

Ben has since tried to fix this problem but is still struggling to find a lender for the property and he wants to know if Rob & Rob have any advice on the matter. 

Tune in to find out.
