## The Main Event

Great deals don’t come from Rightmove alerts and hope.
In a market where margins are tighter, lending is stricter, and competition is sharper, the winners aren’t the loudest buyers – they’re the best deal finders.

This month, The Property Thing welcomes Guillaume Black, founder of Property Filter, one of the UK’s most powerful deal-sourcing platforms used by investors to uncover below-market-value opportunities, motivated sellers, and creative acquisition angles long before they ever hit the portals.

Guillaume will break down how professional investors consistently source BMV buy-to-lets, HMOs, conversions, and development opportunities by going direct-to-vendor, using data-led targeting, assisted sales, lease options, and strategic off-market approaches.
This session is not about chasing unicorn deals. It’s about building a repeatable system for sourcing property in today’s market – one that removes emotion, reduces competition, and puts you in front of sellers who actually need solutions.

Expect a behind-the-scenes look at how smart investors use tools like Property Filter to stack the odds in their favour, control deal flow, and scale without relying on luck.

## Why You Should Attend

• The best deals never reach the open market – learn how to find them first
• Understand how data-led sourcing outperforms portals in 2026
• Learn how to identify genuine motivated sellers, not tyre-kickers
• Discover practical strategies for BMV purchases, assisted sales, and creative finance
• Learn how professional investors build deal pipelines, not one-off wins
• Reduce competition by going direct-to-vendor with precision
• See how sourcing systems support HMOs, conversions, and development strategies
• Walk away with actionable sourcing frameworks, not hype

## This Event Is For

• Buy-to-let investors struggling to find workable deals
• Investors looking to secure BMV opportunities consistently
• HMO and conversion-focused investors needing stronger deal flow
• Developers who want better sites before planning and design
• Sourcers wanting to sharpen their edge and professionalism
• Anyone tired of fighting over scraps on Rightmove
• Property professionals who want smarter acquisition strategies

### 🔓 The Property Thing – April 9th Title Splitting Mastery with Rachel Knight (TitleSplit.com)

📍 In person: Blackwell Grange Hotel, Darlington
💻 Also available online (catch-up access)
🗓 Thursday 9th April 2026
⏰ 18:30 – 22:30 GMT

#### Overview

Welcome to The Property Thing — this month taking a deep dive into one of the UK property market’s most powerful and under-leveraged strategies: Title Splitting.
In a market where margins are tighter, competition is fiercer, and conventional acquisitions feel crowded and expensive, property investors and developers are turning to smarter structural strategies that unlock hidden value and create significant capital uplift without relying on speculation.
We’re pleased to welcome Rachel Knight, founder of TitleSplit.com, the UK’s leading advanced property training company focused on title splitting education and real-world implementation. Rachel will take you behind the curtain on how to legally divide property titles, unlock extra capital, and enhance cash flow using this high-leverage strategy.

#### 🎙 Main Event: Title Splitting — How to Unlock Hidden Capital in Property

Traditional property sourcing and investing is crowded and inefficient. The smartest operators view title splitting as a structural strategy that increases both capital value and cash flow, creating opportunities that go far beyond conventional Rightmove-centric approaches.
Rachel will share how investors and developers can:
✨ Legally separate freehold titles into multiple rentable or sellable units
✨ Increase market valuation — often achieving 25–35% capital uplift
✨ Improve mortgageability and finance flexibility
✨ Build repeatable investment systems, not one-off deals
✨ Integrate title splitting with HMO, conversion and development strategies
✨ Avoid common costly mistakes and structure deals for long-term success

This session blends practical frameworks, real examples, and actionable insights — no hype, no myths.

#### 👤 Speaker: Rachel Knight – Founder, TitleSplit.com

Rachel Knight is a property investor, developer, and the driving force behind TitleSplit.com, recognised across the UK as a leading expert in title splitting training and strategic property enhancement.

Since 2017 Rachel has helped investors, developers and landlords unlock hidden capital value by mastering title splitting — legally dividing property titles to create individual units that command higher valuations and stronger cash flow. Her approach combines deep legal, financial and practical frameworks, giving investors the tools to transform properties and portfolios rather than chase the usual market scraps.
Rachel’s training is respected for being grounded, practical, and results-driven — making complex strategies understandable and actionable for investors at all levels.

#### 💡 Why You Should Attend

This is not another portal-watching workshop. You’ll walk away with:
✅ A clear understanding of what title splitting is and why it works
✅ Insights into when and how to apply title splitting in real property deals
✅ Practical strategies for maximising capital growth and cash flow
✅ Tools to structure and plan your deals with confidence
✅ A fresh perspective on development, conversion and portfolio enhancement
✅ Real examples of how investors are creating value beyond the ordinary.

Whether you’re a buy-to-let investor struggling with deal flow, a conversion specialist wanting edge-leading methods, or a developer looking for new structural profit strategies, this session opens doors to fresh opportunities
