You must answer this question If you’re building a property portfolio: Does my strategy align with my goals? Here is a comparison of HMOs vs single lets. HMOs are harder to manage, but the returns are bigger. When it comes to the benefits of this strategy: • Lower risk of void periods • Perfect for professionals and students Downsides of this strategy: • Highly regulated across the UK • Harder to manage Single lets are easier to manage, but the returns are smaller. When it comes to the benefits of this strategy: • Simpler investment with low maintenance • Attracts longer tenancies Downsides of this strategy: • Lower returns  • Higher risk of void periods. Which strategy do you prefer? Let me know below.

Call for horticultural therapists to share their experience in a brief survey. My name is Alison and I am a social and therapeutic horticulture (STH) practitioner and part time MSc student at the University of Hertfordshire. I am researching how STH programmes identify and measure the benefits experienced by adults with mental health difficulties.   If you are a practitioner, I would be grateful if you would consider completing a short online survey on this topic (link below). I want a representative picture of what is happening now and everyone’s experience is of equal value so please do respond. An answer of “nothing” or “informal” is as important as an established measurement process. By way of encouragement to take part, there are only six questions and I estimate that it will take approximately 10 minutes. The survey is anonymous and there are no questions about you or the participants in the programme. You will find more information and contact details on the survey site.   Many thanks to all respondents and to the Chartered Institute of Horticulture, Thrive and Trellis for publicising the survey. The whole study concludes in summer 2024 and the results will be shared with these organisations. Finally, responses are welcome from English speaking STH practitioners worldwide.   Link to the online survey: https://lnkd.in/ec4rhNwc    The survey has been approved by the University of Hertfordshire Health, Science, Engineering and Technology, Ethics Committee with Delegated Authority (HSET ECDA).; protocol number HSK/PGT/UH/05561.
