Aquisition: Property Price: £55,000.00 Other Costs: £14,120.00 Total Cost: £69,500.00
Disposal: Projected Sale Price: £75,712.00 Sale Expenses: £2,988.10 Projected Sale Revenue: £72,723.90
Profit: £3,223.90
The projected sale price of £75,000 is an uplift of £20,000 (36%) on the purchase price in just 2 years but nearly all of that gain has been swallowed up by PM's costs. If the Sale price is £70,000 the property will show a loss. I am coming to the view that it is not feasible to expect a gain, net of costs, in just 2 years. I had not envisaged, when I started investing with PM, that their costs would be so high. If the tenant is as good as they say maybe we would do better to wait another year. Anyone who wants out can use the SM.

I am not in this one, and have just started with pm. But my opinion is: why sell something which pays dividends? Just to make a little gain from the sell to invest in another property where you don't know if you get the rent? I would prefer to stick in a project, where you have at least some experience with the cash flows.
