Build a Low Risk Buy To Let Property Portfolio - Neil's live presentation at Cambridge PIN meeting

In this engaging talk, Neil Harding outlines his low-risk approach to building a buy-to-let property portfolio that creates long-term wealth without becoming a full-time job. Drawing on over 20 years of personal experience, Neil advocates for simple strategies like single-let buy-to-lets, focusing on properties that require minimal refurbishment and offer strong long-term returns through rental income and capital appreciation. He shares real-world case studies from his investments in Nottingham and Peterborough, illustrating how leveraging private finance and building strong networks can unlock high returns with relatively low effort.

Neil emphasizes the importance of total return — considering time invested, rental yield, capital growth, and financial ROI. He outlines practical tips for managing risks such as interest rate rises, tenant issues, and changing tax laws. A key theme is networking: Neil encourages investors to tell everyone what they do, use social media effectively, and attend property events to find deals and funding.

By avoiding high-maintenance strategies like HMOs or serviced accommodation, Neil proves that patient, consistent investing in single lets can deliver impressive compound returns over time. His message is clear: property investment doesn’t have to be complex — with the right strategy, anyone can build financial freedom safely and steadily.
