3 things I look for when scouting a property for potential…” When doing due diligence looking for a property deal, whether it's for myself or for someone I’m working with these are my 3 go to requirements I’m looking at: ✅ Location with fundamentals – I’m talking about strong rental demand, local amenities, transport links, and future regeneration plans. Leeds and Bradford both have pockets like this, but not every street qualifies. ✅ Value add potential – I like properties that need a bit of love. Refurbs unlock equity, improve yield, and give you more control over the end value. Bonus if the layout allows reconfiguring or adding space. ✅ Exit clarity – Whether it’s buy-to-let, flip, or BRR, the numbers have to work before we buy. That means clear strategy, realistic end values, and a fallback plan if things shift. I see a lot of deals dressed up nicely online… but when you know what to look for, it’s easier to spot the winners early. What’s the #1 thing you look for when assessing a property?
