Why now is a good time to invest in Buy to let, well rates are historically low and look to remain low for the medium term at least. Low interest rates and a flat line property market at least in Wolverhampton and the rest of the West Midlands, at the moment creates an opportunity. Property investment is still a safe investment and will continue to be after lock down has ended even if property values do dip in the short term. There is a previous article on this on the blog.
The property market has restarted and valuation’s and restricted viewings can re-commence subject to social distancing of course.
The effect of the property market re-opening, if you like in Wolverhampton means that now is a good time to purchase a investment property while values are at a low point and fairly flat. Why is this good news, well as long as you view property as a long-term investment then over the long term, the capital growth will add a lot of value to the property as the market returns to normal or the new normal.
Property types, popular for investment in Wolverhampton are the straight forward buy to let properties, with one family or person on a single tenancy agreement, living in a house or apartment. For the more experienced Landlord there is the shared house option also known as houses in multiple occupation (HMO) typically three to six people who are not related sharing the facility’s but each tenant having their own bedroom. Greater cashflow and higher yields plus more management work for the letting agent or Landlord.
From the mortgage brokers perspective, I can provide independent mortgage advice on a HMO mortgage or a Buy to let mortgage whether it’s a re-mortgage of an existing property. Bridging finance can also be used to obtain or refurbish and uplift a property which might as its current status be unmortgageable.

The company is based in the United States and all orders also ship from here in the U.S.

San Diego – Party Hats Entertainment, a leading creative event company, has launched a response to the challenge of celebrating life’s special moments during social distancing. Families are separated because of the spread of the coronavirus at a time when many of the biggest milestones are happening. Birthdays, graduations and more are taking place in isolation because of “stay at home” orders. The Party Hats solution is a virtual celebration where families and friends experience the same award-winning activity that companies such as Disney, BMW and Google have enjoyed for decades.
With the challenges of social distancing due to Covid-19, families must find new and creative ways to celebrate the milestones of life, such as birthdays, anniversaries, and graduations. Party Hats in a Box brings the fun of the original Party Hats Creation Zone to families in their own homes. With a Party Hats Party, each household receives a box filled with hats, accessories, and all the supplies needed to decorate and personalize the hats to match the creative personalities of each person. At a scheduled online event, a skilled Party Hats event artist will lead families through a virtual fashion show with fun activities and games.
“Families are struggling to deal with being apart when birthdays and other special days happen,” says Party Hats Entertainment founder Fiona Markowitz. “Our goal is to give these families a way to connect with the people they love during this time of social distancing. Each household gets a Party Box filled with everything they need to decorate and customize their hats. We even include hot glue guns and instructions.”
The Virtual Party Hats Party costs $25 per person with a two-person minimum per household and $22.95 for shipping and handling. Virtual parties led by a Party Hats Entertainment event artist begin at $100 for up to 5 households.
“Don’t let quarantine and isolation because of covid ruin your fun,” says Party Hats Entertainment co-owner Stephen Markowitz. “It’s simple to get together with your family and friends with our virtual celebration. It’s where fashion meets fun in your room on the Zoom!”

American Author and Speech Language Pathologist, Jourdan Saunders, has launched an ebook titled: “Our Reading Literacy Kitchen” which is a valuable tool for school districts to provide to children without access to the Internet during this Covid-19 pandemic.
According to World Economic Forum, the Covid-19 has resulted in schools shutdown across the world. Globally, over 1.2 billion children are out of the classroom. As a result, education has changed dramatically, with the distinctive rise of e-learning, whereby teaching is undertaken remotely and on digital platforms.
Many school districts have moved to remote learning platforms, but for some families, online learning is not an option.
According to World Economic Forum, In the US, there is a significant gap between those from privileged and disadvantaged backgrounds: whilst virtually all 15-year-olds from a privileged background said they had a computer to work on, nearly 25% of those from disadvantaged backgrounds did not.
Some schools are providing offline learning tools to support student’s education who may not have access to the Internet. In the area of reading, Jourdan’s book, Our Reading Literacy Kitchen provides reading literacy resources to help with keeping students engaged and excited about learning. A lot of the activity ideas within the book can be incorporated without Internet access. Different recipes are included within the book to ignite each student’s passion for reading by infusing art and other innovative approaches into daily life.
Jourdan would love to see more partnerships with local tv stations to allow for learning materials to be accessible for children with disabilities, and families who may not have access to the Internet. During times like this it is imperative for multi-modes of access to learning materials for a quality education!

As experts have pointed out and documented, this deadly virus has even greater risks for our senior population. The increased isolation and anxiety of the unknown has everyone concerned, with good reason. On top of the physical and mental toll, it has also created financial hardships for many older Americans, especially those who were already struggling.
One option to consider may be a Reverse Mortgage. As a Reverse Mortgage expert, I have received calls daily from senior homeowners that are concerned about their finances.
For instance, they are worried about losing opportunities in the stock market, losing a job that they used to supplement their income, trying to keep their business going and not being able to help family members.
In addition, seniors that were receiving nutritional assistance from local agencies are no longer receiving that support. The Reverse Mortgage could ease all these worries and lift financial burdens. Besides using the Reverse Mortgage for necessities, many homeowners use it to meet monthly obligations, especially their mortgage payments. The Reverse Mortgage enables them to pay off their homes in full so that monthly payment can re-directed for other purposes.
Currently, interest rates are low and house values are still strong, so a Reverse Mortgage is an excellent alternative for senior homeowners to utilize some of their house value without creating a monthly payment. Now, they can pay off their existing mortgage and other debts while providing additional money for a possible rainy day. Like anything in life, this might not be the alternative for everyone, but it is a lifesaver to some. If you would like to learn more, give us a call at (410) 788-7070.
Covid-19 is not a Panic, it’s an Investment Opportunity. In What and How to Invest?
The whole world now lives on one topic – the coronavirus. More or less reasonably it has been the subject of many debates, agonizing, and actions. He contributed to the modification of human behavior and changed the picture of the economy in many regions of the world.
What does this mean for investment in stock market shares?
What does this mean for the watch industry?
How much will it feel the effects of the panic caused by the disease and what can we expect in the coming months?
What to Invest in During Coronavirus Times?
There are several options to consider: stock market shares, gold, commercial real estate, collector coins, works of art, and vintage watches. We suggest which ones in this matter are particularly worth considering.
Appropriate vintage watches are currently, in the era of coronavirus, a safer and more stable investment than buying currencies or shares while providing a profit much higher than ores or bonds.
Rare watches are still gaining value and are the object of the desire of collectors around the world. In addition to measuring time, can they also enrich our wallets?
It is worth paying attention to one fact – a well-chosen vintage watch can bring considerable profits, regardless of the amount allocated for its purchase.
Prices of old Paul Newman Rolex Daytona watches are higher than new ones. You will now be lucky if you manage to get one for 70,000. USD.
Is This a Good Time to Invest in Used Luxury Watches?
Yes, because you can still underestimate the price of old watches, and currently released limited editions are constantly gaining value.
The prices of the most expensive watches are close to the prices of the most expensive classic cars. Vintage watches have always been a good investment, especially now that the stock markets are unstable, stock market shares are falling by several dozen % and companies are collapsing – this type of investment is unstable, while vintage watches – as an investment asset – delight.
Models of vintage watches tend to oversize increases in value because they enjoy a greater estimate among investors and collectors for various reasons.
Vintage Watches – Unusual Assets
“Vintage Watches are not typical investment products. They should be treated mainly as beautiful, historical objects “with soul”, and the profit from their resale as a bonus” – says Mr. Keith A. Gray owner of the Gray and Sons Jewelers from Miami, the company with 40 years’ experience, specializing in selling and buying luxury vintage watches.
You can resort to a comparison with the antique car market: we want to be the owners of the unique Jaguar or Ferrari, and we treat the increase in their value as a nice addition, without counting the meticulous average annual rate of return.
Mr. Keith A. Gray also points out that there is no classic investment index on the watch market. The investment watch market is more dispersed and less internally connected, it is also the so-called unregulated market.
This means that, unlike, for example, stock markets, it is not controlled and regulated by financial regulators such as the New York Stock Exchange, NYSE, but is only subject to the law.
Therefore, the purchase and sale contracts are not unified on it and do not have to meet certain standards. All you need is the consent of the parties involved. To sum up: each transaction related to a watch as an asset must be considered individually.
Is it Possible to Invest in a Pre owned Vintage Watches at All, without Putting Out Several Dozen Dollars?
As explains by Mr. Keith A. Gray, it is possible because more niche brands can have an investment value if they were built around a clear and original idea. Generally, watches that stand out with something can count on an increase in value:
– complications used
– the circumstances of the edition
– person of the previous holder
Value in Uniqueness
“The highest prices now have two companies: Patek Philippe & Rolex. They are currently bought primarily by our customers,” says Ms. Agata Z Arakel, Brand Manager of the Gray & Sons Jewelers.
Vintage watch Patek Philippe and Rolex are the first-choice brands due to two factors:
– price
– popularity
High output prices make it possible to deposit a significant amount of money in just a few timepieces.
This is important because each choice must be thought out, and the number of unique watches that would have investment potential is limited.
As for the second factor, it is, of course, relative popularity, within a small group of collectors, which, however, ensures greater liquidity: on vintage Rolex watches or vintage Patek Philippe watches the buyer will always be found because they are known and fashionable. A larger number of potential buyers also creates the opportunity to raise the price – notes Agata Z Arakel.
What Vintage Watches Should We Buy?
Ms. Agata Z. Arakel, Brand Manager of the Gray and Sons Jewelers company:
The value of the watch is influenced by several factors, one of the keys is its brand, whether it comes from a reputable manufacture, most often Swiss, its mechanism, complications, whether it is made of precious metal, what is the decoration of the dial, etc.
Currently, the most popular is women’s vintage jewelry watches often decorated with diamonds. Men’s timepieces are also decorative, made of gold, and set with diamonds.
A few weeks ago, there was a customer in our showroom in Surfside, who due to the global COVID-19 situation, sold most of his investment funds, and bought several luxury vintage watches from us for $ 450,000. They were Rolex and Philippe Patek watches.
A watch from a manufactory with traditions is already in itself a good investment. If you’re thinking of a long-term investment, it’s worth looking around for a limited-edition watch. After years, models from such editions often reach very high prices, especially those from really short series.
The most expensive timepiece in the world is auctioned for over $ 11 million, at a starting price of 3 million, a steel watch by Patek Philippe with a chronograph and an eternal calendar – since 1941 it has only been produced in four copies. Here the highest prestige and extreme uniqueness met.
At Gray & Sons (www.grayandsons.com) we offer used vintage watches from the most excellent manufactories.

Serving as a new affordable tool to increase awareness for one’s law firm and generate client leads, advertising with Work Accident Lawyers will help law businesses succeed and remain competitive, especially now during these trying economic times caused by the COVID-19 health pandemic.
“During COVID-19, we are seeing that law firms are taking one of two options when it comes to generating new clients: pausing all advertising and taking a passive role or investing in their advertising and maximizing their presence while the market is less saturated with competitors,” said Edgar Gonzalez, Founder and CEO of Work Accident Lawyers and Fuel Lead. “Our expert opinion for our clients is that by investing in marketing now, they will position their business for success in the future once this pandemic is over. This is a great time for law firms to get ahead and maximize their potential by advertising on Work Accident Lawyers today.”
The Work Accident Lawyers website is visited by individuals who are in need of an immediate lawyer. Many have been in a recent work accident and are in need of someone to challenge their employers for compensation. Therefore, by advertising on the Work Accident Lawyers website law firms are directly promoted to clients who are eager to get to work.
“I recently acquired the far-reaching Work Accident Lawyers website and I am pleased to offer its advertising capabilities to support law firm businesses across the country,” continued Gonzalez. “After working as an entrepreneur in the digital marketing space with companies both big and small and designing websites for more than 10 years, I am proud to now focus my abilities on helping law firms find new clients online.”

During the COVID-19 crisis, many law firms are slowing down or pausing their digital marketing and advertising altogether out of panic and in an effort to save money. This opens up an opportunity for clients of both Work Accident Lawyers and Fuel Lead to get ahead of their competitors during this time. With Fuel Lead, the difference in a less saturated digital market is especially visible in terms of SEO. While competitors scale back on their SEO efforts, Fuel Lead’s clients have jumped ahead in SEO rankings at a faster pace and thereby generating more client leads.

Paid Chat Software Company Premium.Chat Secures Trademark for Term ‘Premium Chat’
May 19, 2020 – Greenvale, New York – The United States Trademark and Patent Office has granted Premium.Chat the trademark for the term ‘Premium Chat‘. Since its launch in July 2019, Premium.Chat has become a leader in the paid chat billing niche. This innovative platform supports users including social media influencers, coaches, consultants, and a wide range of paid chat providers.
Premium.Chat is built around a secure web-based messaging platform. The company recently rolled out a major upgrade to support paid video chat, alongside the pre-existing text chat feature. As founder, Michael Szerencsy, explains, Premium.Chat is fast becoming the go-to solution for influencers and professionals delivering paid chat services:
‘A number of businesses claim to offer a way to get paid to chat. But their users are often told when to work, who to chat with, and what to charge. There’s no flexibility and no independence.’
‘Unlike many platforms, Premium.Chat supports choice. Our users can build a profile on our site and share links across their social media accounts, or they can integrate our paid chat widget into their own websites. Either way, they have control over their services, prices, and branding.’
‘Right now, we’re experiencing a spike in interest from influencers seeking new ways to monetize social media followers. We’re also onboarding life coaches, mentors, professional consultants – the range of new users is almost limitless.’
Szerencsy believes flexibility is the key to Premium.Chat’s success: ‘Our month-on-month growth reflects this focus on choice and independence. Influence.co recently recognized us in their CreatorScape 2020 list of influencer software companies, and when people think of premium chat services, they now think of Premium.Chat. That’s why securing this trademark meant so much to us.’
