ASK379: How can I buy at a distance? PLUS: Should this freehold worry me?

The guys are back with some more listener questions: 

• (0:40) Vik currently owns a number of buy-to-let properties in London where he’s based, but he’d like to expand his portfolio to Manchester. He wants to know what approach he should take when buying properties that are far away. 
   
• (3:25) Jim is looking at buying a freehold property, there’s a service charge that covers the cost to maintain the shared areas, but he’d like to know what he should be looking out for in the management contract.
