Following up on last week’s Part 1: Introduction to Life Tenancy Investments (LTI), WealthUp continues to speak to Mark Blackwell, Co-Founder of MacBeale on how LTI can benefit investors from all over the world.

In this exclusive series, Mark Blackwell shares the top 5 reasons on why you should consider life tenancy investments – if you haven’t already.

Mark Blackwell (MB): Typically investors need between £100-200k to invest in an LTI; but some of the properties do reach up to 500k – particularly the London properties. 

WU: Which region of investors would benefit most from LTI, or where is the majority of your investors from?

MB: Anyone can benefit from buying an asset half-price. However, we’ve found that overseas/ distant landlords (who are frustrated by being at the mercy of their tenants and letting agents) are the ones who tend to see the most benefits for a property with a life tenancy.
