From sourcing deals for investors to investing in multi lets

In this week’s episode of the Property Magicians Podcast we talk to Thapelo Mokau, a flight engineer and property investor.

He bought his first property in 2019, when he qualified as a flight engineer. He was planning to stay at the property but he attended a real estate seminar where he was told there were a few strategies he could use.

He started with sourcing, where he looked for property for investors. He started by engaging with other sourcing agents and started building a relationship with various people in the real estate industry.

He bought a property in Boksburg that was a buy to let, he got tenants to pay money into his bank account and then used that track record with the banks to show that he was receiving money from tenants and also receiving his salary.

His second property was a multi-let in Kempton Park - he explained his requirements to a real estate agent and everything went well. He is planning to use the cash flow from the property to build and extend the property so he only uses bank money to buy the property.He explained that his strategy is to grow his asset base and use different avenues to grow his portfolio.
