Do you have a messy, disorganised office/workspace where you cannot find important documents, such as tenancy agreements, rent/arrears sheets, gas/electric/EPC certificates, invoices/receipts, bank statements, VAT returns etc.? Is this causing you headaches, loss of time and money?
Then you need the services of our lead consultant John
John creates order in your office by creating controls for your documents, records and information sheets so that you can find things quickly and easily. This will take away your headaches and save you time and money. The savings that you make will impact directly on your bottom line. Here is an example of how much could be saved in time and money.
It takes you 10 minutes to find a document, and on average this happens every hour on an 8-hour shift, 5 times per week over a 48-week period. Your overhead cost is £25 per hour.
- Time Lost
10 X 8 = 80 minutes
5 days X 80 minutes = 400 Minutes
400 minutes X 48 Weeks = 19200 Minutes
19200 minutes / 60 minutes = 320 Hours
320 hours / 8-hour shift = 40 Days
Time Lost = 40 Days per year
Can you afford to lose 3+ days per month? This is time that you could spend on viewings, networking, or meeting a prospective angel etc.
- Money Lost
10 minutes / 60 = 0.166 Hours
Overhead Costs = £25 per Hour
0.166 hours X £25 = £4.15
£4.15 X 8-hour shift = £33.20
£33.20 X 5 days = £166
£166 X 48 weeks = £7,968 per year
Money Lost = £7,968 per year
£7,986 / 12 = £665.50 per month
Can you afford to lose £665.50 per month? For many investors this could equate to the net cashflow for 2-3 BTLs or a 4/5 bed HMO.
