First time user with OpenRent. So far am impressed with site. Managed a property for over 10years down south and wanted to add to this. I now have one in Cumbria as well and hope to increase my portfolio.

I’m in full time employment, but am lucky enough not to have a mortgage on property. I feel there is less pressure this way and am not dependent on the rent in the same way as I would be if mortgaged.

I work for the NHS, but plan to retire as early as feasibly possible to work at my hobbies which are woodwork and most things to do with houses. This is where my true interests lie.
