Landlord aims to raise £100,000 for charities in 3,0...

A community-spirited buy-to-let landlord is preparing to saddle up for an epic 3,000 mile coast to coast bike ride from the Pacific Ocean in California to the Atlantic Ocean in Florida, in an attempt to raise £100,000 for charities on both sides of the Atlantic.

Stuart Bookatz will start his bike ride in San Diego on 1st April 2018, and go through Arizona, New Mexico, Texas, Mississippi, Alabama and finally into St Augustine, Florida, taking a total of 46 days to complete.

In the UK, Bookatz will be raising money for Make-a-Wish UK, Mental Health Awareness, Variety Club and Jewish Care and is appealing to his supporters to donate to the charity of their choice.

The Happy Tenant Company is among those supporting the landlord in what promises to be a gruelling experience, by not just donating money but also raising awareness throughout their network of agents and landlords.

Adam Joseph, CEO of The Happy Tenant Company, commented: “Stuart has been a landlord member of The Happy Tenant Company for five years, and we have come to know him very well and know that whilst he is not an iron man or an athlete, he is passionate about helping others.

“We’ve supported many of our members over the years in various initiatives, but this really would be an exceptional achievement both personally for Stuart and financially for the charities.”
