We are Lia and AK, and we're excited to share our journey with you as we navigate the world of property investing, business, and working together as a couple.

AK: I left my corporate job after experiencing mental and physical health issues, and we started our YouTube channel to document our journey as new property investors in 2019 with no upfront capital. Expect weekly videos where we provide project updates, share best practices, money-saving tips, and our learnings along the way.

Lia: With nearly a decade of experience building my own entertainment channel on YouTube from 0 to over 300k followers, the unpredictable nature of a content creator's monthly income took a toll on my mental health. Starting my property journey was my way of future-proofing my income and creating a stable, regular source of revenue. Ultimately, my goal is to build a secure financial foundation for our future family.

Our goal is to make property investing accessible and understandable by sharing our story. We're passionate about inspiring others to take control of their lives, no matter what challenges they may face.

When you edit a video and realise he looks at you with so much love in his eyes 😭😭

[meesa]

This video somehow finally displayed you two as a couple in a way that really shows us the connection you two share.
If you need a reason that is a positive, it's the first real life challenge the two of you have faced as a couple. Smack in the middle of the purchase of your rental property fixer up-er. You two are goofing around and singing and are all touchy and feely.
So from this challenge take away from it how the two of you are smiling and laughing and dorky singing while you sort the solution.
You will be a stronger couple for getting through this together, which is worth far more than a cherished apartment.

Ach is amazing. You have every right to feel upset. Yet how gratifying it is to have someone by your side who's able to take it in stride and take care of business. Truly yin and yang.

[jillj]

Ps. One of my favorite quotes that has helped me enormously in times like you're having now:
"In the end it will all be alright. So, if is not all right, it is not yet the end." 💜

[michaelmullard]

Ah, good for Ach for looking below the surface and finding some wisdom in your difficult situation! Trust in the process, watch closely, and your next step will be revealed! You guys are both lovely and amazing people and something great will come your way. Hugs to you both!

[philchambers]

Oh he's adorable.... you're a very lucky Girl and together I'm sure you'll find and make another place home in no time xx

"Eviction" is just something you think about tenants who are delinquent in paying rent and/or otherwise being troublesome despite warnings. But, unfortunately, that's just the term for it (like "termination" for leaving a job, whether it was by choice or not...and, if not, due to bad performance or just being laid off). I had an eviction many years ago because my landlord sold the property and the new owners wanted the place for a relative, but my landlord was very apologetic about it and even offered to show me other properties he owned (and wasn't planning to sell).

[KatieScoot]

Don't worry about the double rant, Lia!!!! Someday you will look back and think you were being silly for being upset. I think you are allowed to be upset over this. Change can be so hard especially when it's unexpected. Everything will be ok and thank God you both have each other for support. Chin up and move on....literally! Wishing you both well!!!

Moving is very stressful and I had a landlord(dirty, greedy) I’m 60 years old, no family . My landlord went online and found intimidating angry letters to evict me. Wasn’t open to “adult conversation” was never issued a court-ordered document. I am an excellent tenant. He wanted me out so he could potentially sell the apartment, in fact I went online, he already had the apartment for sale(with me in it). So, I called a moving company, spent all my money for them to take away my entire world, and store my things(I didn’t have another apartment lined up yet), in fact I was homeless with my sweet little dog for 2 months, then I found an apartment with a kind landlord. Very few kind landlords are out there.

Check with the legalities of the landlord setting your move out date. I don't know how it is in the UK, but in the states, once you are given an eviction notice they cannot hold you to a lease or charge you beyond the date you move out. I would assume that the UK also has such a protection for tenants. You may very well be able to move out whenever you find a place and not be held to or responsible for paying until the date they have set.

[chefevilee]

Well that’s when y’all come in and say do you want to let us move March 18? Because if you don’t and we pass on this wonderful structure then we might be here past May. Because if we can’t find a place to live we can’t find a place to live. So March

[sophiekotomski]

So cute. You have each other and that’s all that matters. Life stretches us. It’s all good.

[lorrainethomas]

Ach made an excellent point. The empathy you'll have for your future tenants will be a gift to them. Doesn't mean you have to tolerate bad behavior or late rent. But you'll be able to treat them with the respect you wish you'd had received from your landlords. (I get formal notices and legal wotnots; but it does strike me as a bit cold to not have a nice little "heads up" chat first. It might have lessened the sting. And you're right; eviction is a word that conotes you did something wretched.)

[jillj]

In the end it will be wonderful. Wait and see. Bigger and better things are coming your way. Mark it down. 👍🏻

[jayhightower]

AK seems to be taking this well. He has the right attitude.

You may be "nice people", but not all renters are - all those bad things you thought about, might happen to you if you rent out your rehab house. Speaking of... I'm looking forward to the 'before' video.

I used to be able to move with all my stuff in a VW Golf, so I understand that stage of life. The old saying is that 'three moves equals a fire', meaning that stuff gets lost, broken, or tossed. Moving keeps you 'lean'.

[christinechappell]

Double Rant!... why not, the wound (emotional wound) is open and sore. Something better will turn up (always does).

[joannesaltfleet]

Even though we were wanting to leave anyway I was annoyed getting told we were leaving and had no choice in the matter!

[stephaniel]

The big positive take away is definitely now you know how to not treat your tenants. So lovely how you two complete and compliment each other’s personalities. Lia (rightfully) upset and Ach just pushing forward. You two are great. ❤️💙

[joannesaltfleet]

When I got one of those I was shocked but not surprised as I had an idea it was on the cards but still it was a shock receiving that letter!

I do understand that circumstances change over time but its better to explain things to the tenants as when things are explained to people I find that when things are explained to me I am more understanding.

[clumsymumsy]

I was devastated for you Lia ! 😢 I can’t believe you’ve just felt like you’ve made it home. I’m glad that Ach is like your rock, he is upset of course but also calm for you. Everything happens for a reason and you have each other and you’ll grow closer together as a couple through this. Blessings to both of you. 💕💕
