Not advice

Nothing in Bricks & Yields, on this website or in our community is financial, investment, tax, legal, mortgage or property advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, fund, let or source any property. Fortuna Streams Ltd is not authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority to give financial or mortgage advice, and the game does not give it.

Illustrative figures

Prices, rents, yields, interest rates, fees, costs, taxes, timescales and rules in the game are simplified for play and learning. They are illustrative, not market data, and they will differ from any real deal. Characters, investors, lenders, builders, events and places are made up.

Rules and regulations

Where the game mentions laws, regulations or official schemes, such as anti money laundering supervision, redress schemes, data protection, building and safety rules or licensing, it gives a short simplified summary for learning. Rules differ across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland and change over time. Always check the official source, such as GOV.UK, and take professional advice before acting.

Results are not typical

How quickly you quit the day job or grow a portfolio in the game says nothing about what you could achieve in real life. Property investment carries risk: values can fall, tenants can leave, costs can rise, and you can lose money, including your home if it is used as security.

Before you act

Before making any real decision, check current figures and rules and speak to a suitably qualified professional, such as an independent financial adviser, a mortgage broker, an accountant or a solicitor.
