Hi Millie, I've recently thought of the idea of renting out motorbikes. I came across your channel while trying to research more about it. I just want to show gratitude for your content. It is really helpful and gives one a sense of direction. I was reading through the comments to get answers for some of the questions I have and I am stunned to see you answer each question honestly, you even answered similar questions (didn't mind sharing what you already have shared). Your content and humility is greatly appreciated. Lols ill definetly be asking something soon *hides*

Thanks so much Millie 🙏🏿 I would like to see more content like this (motorbike rental business) if I may ask what are the advantages and disadvantages of registering the bikes under your name?
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance 2 года назад
Thank you so much for watching, I'm glad you are enjoying the videos. If the bike is in your name the income you make will be taxed according to your tax bracket and you will get taxed before you pay for expenses. On the other hand, if the bike is under a company, you are only required to pay tax on the profit that you have made. Also the flat rate for corporate tax in South Africa is 28%, which might be less than you personal tax bracket, depending on how much you earn in a year.

Hi Millie ow wow i just had started thinking about this business few days ago and you've been so much helpful. I also just wanted to know a few things, in the research i have conducted i found out that after registering on Uber eats it can take time like a month or two or even more to get you started and also found out that there's another company you can register under and they can get you working within a month but there is a certain percentage required in you profits. So i wanted to know which on is better and more profitable as i wanted to obtain a loan to buy my first motorbike?
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance 2 года назад
Hey, you technically don't need to register on Uber eats yourself, UNLESS if you are going to be using the bike. It is possible to find drivers who already have their own account and just need to rent out a bike. You should just look for drivers that already have their own uber eats account

@LetsTalkPersonalFinance
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance 2 года назад
Profit = Income - Expenses So you need to make sure that the amount of rental income you will be getting every month is enough to cover all of your bike expenses (the loan installment, the tracker and/or insurance premium). To try and maximise your profit, you can try to shop around to ensure that you get the lowest prices for your tracker and also try to get the best interest rate on the bike loan. You will also need to ensure that the repayment term of the loan is not too long because bikes typically have a life span of about 2 years (it could be longer if the bike is being taken care of)

Hii, hope you good? I wish to know more about this kind of business. So let's say I have already done everything ( bought the bike already found a driver) my issue is on the income ? How much do you pay the driver? And how much does the driver pay you daily, weekly or monthly??

Hi 👋 So I ask the driver to pay me R600 every week for renting out the bike. Any amount of money they make over that R600 belongs to them and is therefore their payment.

Hi Millie, If I rent my bike to someone. Is it my responsibility to find a storage/parking space? If it's mine, where can I find a parking space?
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance
@LetsTalkPersonalFinance 2 года назад
It depends on the agreement that you have with the driver, currently all of my drivers keep the bikes with them overnight but this is quite risky as the bikes might get stolen. I’m also not 100% sure where you can find parking space for your bike.
