Jim Haliburton began buying property in 1991 and letting them to students, organising or doing the work on the property himself. The tenants/students all came from the College where Jim worked as a lecturer.
In July 2003 Jim left his job as a College Lecturer and decided to invest in property full time. At that point he set himself a target to purchase a further 50 properties before the buy-to-let boom finished. In the end it took him 18 months to achieve this.
Jim now owns over 86 HMO’s / Multi-Lets with over 500 tenants. On top of this he has about 20 houses and flats which are let as single-lets. He is now acquiring properties using Lease Options and keeps on telling himself to stop accumulating property and consolidate his position, but anybody in the property business will know how difficult it is to stop buying once you have started.
