Key Steps For Sourcing Compliance

We want to provide agents with facts on what they actually need to get compliant. Unfortunately, it is a lot more than just tick-boxing registrations and insurance. 

How Much Does it Cost to Set Up a Sourcing Business?

We provided this walk-through of the expected costs an agent will find in year one (setting up), and then an estimate for each year after.  

Common Mistakes When Setting Up Your Business

We've listed some of these out to help new agents into the sector avoid the same mistakes - some of them serious enough to end your business on the spot or give you a serious fine to consider. 

The Importance of Networking in Property Sourcing

Sourcing is all about people - you need investors to purchase deals and get you paid. To do this, you can't just sit behind a computer - you need to go out and market your expertise and services, make real connections with potential buyers and sellers. 

Hidden Costs of 'Done For You' Sourcing Services

It sounds incredibly helpful, having a business complete all of your registrations and insurance so you don't have to. What's not talked about enough are the risks involved in this, that we've seen directly through NAPSA when members go through our business health check. 

Mediating a Potential Fine From HMRC

Getting a letter from HMRC doesn't have to result in a fine. If you have compliance in place and haven't traded, there are ways you could mitigate a fine. We've worked with a number of NAPSA members now to help them gather evidence to present to HMRC to overturn or avoid fines completely.
