First Rent comes through - eventually !

Took a while to get the first payment through from CityLife, rent paid on the 2 March by the tenent but didn't actually get my cash through until the 13th which I wasn't exactly happy about however I guess that there are inital set up processes to go through also they provided a detailed breakdown of the costs they had taken from it. The problem is that it seems to be extremely light from what I was expecting, Serliana brokered a deal with CityLife for property club members but it looks like I've been put through at standard rates.

I rang them (late on a Friday) and managed to get through to a lady in accounts who promised to look into it Monday for me. I sent her the emailed confirmation and she said it should be pretty straightforward to resolve so hopefully it will get shorted out pretty quick.

I've spent the last week or so reading the Rich Dad, Poor Dad books 1 and 2. They seem to be pretty seminal reading for would be property investors so intend to write my review of them next week. I might have a go at using the Google documents and spreadsheets functionality and providing a link to them rather than simply writing up in the blog.
