The Best Strategy for Property Beginners (BTL + Flips): Converting 1-Bed Flats to 2-Beds

Описание: This video reveals how to execute the popular "1-bed to 2-bed conversion," a strategy seen all over London and perfect for established towns and cities.

Tristan from Zebra Invest walks you through the entire process, including the essential criteria you need to look for to ensure the conversion is profitable and compliant.

In this video, you'll learn:

:: Size Matters: The minimum size requirement (50 sq. meters or 550 sq. ft.) to comfortably convert a 1-bed flat without falling foul of new-build National Minimum Space Standards.

:: The Window Rule: Why windows are the single most important factor and how to creatively move kitchens and bathrooms (which don't need windows) to free up space for a new bedroom with natural light.

:: Case Study Example: A deep dive into Tristan's personal project on Swanmore Avenue, where a £90k 1-bed flat was converted into a 2-bed and valued significantly higher.

:: How to Find the Deals: Two methods for sourcing these properties—from mass-contacting estate agents via Zoopla (which yielded his first deal) to using Property Data to filter for oversized 1-beds at a low price-per-square-foot.

If you're looking to quickly add value to your portfolio, this strategy is a must-watch!
