EP152: "I've been doing purchase lease options since before they were being taught. I would never have said now is a good time to do it because it's always been a good time. But now I'm telling the world that there are so many options out there. And the amazing thing about it is that we get to help people. There are people out there who we need to help. They are literally so stressed, so scared, getting sick because they cannot cope with what they've got. We can go in there and take all that pressure off them. Take their pain. Let them earn income each month without the fear of having to pay a mortgage each month."

I met with Gillie Barlow, experienced property investor who has never put down more than a few thousand pounds for any of her property deals. She explains how PLOs are the way to not only build your own portfolio but genuinely help people get out of difficult situations. 

KEY POINTS

  • What are purchase lease options, PLOs? 
  • What is now the right time to seek out PLOs and how do you go about it? 
  • How Gillie started with a vision to help disabled children and led to her volunteering in jails
  • Why it is so important to invest in property with purpose
