357: These 7 things are killing your projects
3/14/2022
I spend a lot of time thinking about how we can improve efficiency within our business - whether that’s how we run our renovation projects or how we create a piece of content like a podcast. So I’ve been racking my brain to think of things we’ve introduced or are trying to introduce to make sure our projects run as smoothly as possible, and that’s what I’m sharing today.
Instead of giving you a whole bunch of things you need to start doing though, instead I’m focussing on things that you...

356: This was our worst deal ever!
3/7/2022
I'm conscious it's been a while since we released an episode. I'll provide more of an update in an upcoming episode but it's been a little busy for us these past few months. Victoria gave birth to our daughter Clementine in December, and she's been keeping us busy ever since. She's currently having a nap, so I'm on a strict timeline to get this episode recorded, where I'm sharing all the details of our worst deal last year… in fact probably our worst deal ever - specifically looking at what...

354: Is now a good time to invest in the UK property market?
8/30/2021
Today we're looking at whether or not now is a good time to invest in property.
You're here with me today because it's a subject that interests you - whether you're actively investing already or just thinking about taking the first steps, you want to grow a portfolio and create some sort of freedom from it, but it's been a crazy 18 months generally with Covid, and specifically in the property market its's been a bit of a wild ride at times, so before we jump into your next deal, we need to...

353: Can you really become financially free from property?
8/23/2021
Today's episode is all about answering the one of the biggest questions. The one question to rule them all - can you really become financially free from property investing?
We could have gone in a lot of directions with this one, but I wanted to keep it simple, and keep it actionable, and I hope we deliver.
If you're in any doubt about whether you should start investing in property, or whether you should continue with the efforts you've made so far, then stick around and I'm sure you'll...

352: Discovering a £600/month addition to our latest HMO project
8/17/2021
In today's episode I'm sharing our second update from IPI Washway, one of our own projects to convert an office building into a 7 bedroom HMO in an article 4 area. I'm joined again by Will who's our new project manager. He started working for us officially about 3 months ago with no previous property experience, so whilst we've thrown him in at the deep end, what we're hoping to show with this series is that anyone, including you, can get involved in great projects like this without a ton of...

351: 5 steps to your most productive 90 days ever
8/9/2021
Today's episode should have been released a few weeks ago but life has a habit of getting in the way when you least expect it, but it's a subject close to my heart so I wanted to make sure we shared it, even if it was later than expected.
A few weeks ago two of our team came to visit us in Ibiza so we could spend some time planning out our next 90 days in the business. It's something we do religiously every quarter and I'd go as far as to say it's been one of the most impactful processes...

350: Chris & Cat of NW Living on HMO investing, leaving the day job and creating a lifestyle business
7/5/2021
Today, I am delighted to be joined by Chris and Cat, a couple we have known for a few years. Originally from London, they moved up to Manchester for work about eight years ago and started investing in property and HMO investing about four years ago. In that time, they've built up a portfolio of 50 rooms in HMOs and recently, Cat made the decision to step away from the day job to focus full-time on property while Chris continues to climb the corporate ladder. During today's interview, we talk...

349: Jake & Lucy of Innova Property on growing a property business as a couple and doing it alongside the day job
6/28/2021
Today I am delighted to be joined by Lucy and Jake from Innova Property. They are based in Bristol and despite initially looking around at some cheaper locations to invest, they decided that being close to home was important. So, with their expertise and their preference for being involved in the renovation process, they were able to make investing work on their doorstep in what is traditionally viewed as an expensive market to get a foot on the ladder. In today's interview, we talk about...

4/27/2021
Today, I'm delighted to be joined by Manoj Varsani, a part-time property investor and a technology expert who wanted to put his skills to use and create more efficiency in his portfolio and move away from all the spreadsheets and paper notes that he was relying on to manage everything. Now, this is where the idea for Hammock came from, the property finance platform you've been hearing about for the past few months as one of our major podcast sponsors. I wanted to get Manoj on the show to...

344: Dean Starr on social housing and his route into investing in property
4/19/2021
Today, I'm delighted to be joined by Dean Starr, a developer with a social conscience who started out in property in a fairly typical fashion with student houses in Huddersfield. He had a desire to simplify his income so he could move him and his family to New Zealand. But things didn't exactly go to plan and a chance meeting with an old colleague who was also investing in property, led him on a path to create Cornerstone Partnership, a social enterprise that is trying to make an impact on...

343: David Lenton on building an unencumbered portfolio and leveraging growth
4/13/2021
Today, I am delighted to be joined by David Lenton, the founder of an SEO and digital marketing agency who started looking at property initially in 2018 as a place to protect and diversify his wealth. He started out by building up an unencumbered portfolio, thinking that when his capital ran out, he would stop with the property.
But, you know how the story goes and, by that point, he'd developed a real interest in the industry, finding that his knowledge of the property business grew with...

4/6/2021
Today I'm delighted to be joined by Andrew and Mary - qualified architects with over 20 years of combined experience working on projects in the UK and in Australia. Now, they spend most of their time focused on their investments in Leeds and their business Elite Dwellings - primarily HMOs, but starting to work on larger residential conversions and developments as well.
During the interview, they share the details of how they got started with their own portfolio when a major roadblock was...

341: Richard Nicholls on the ins and outs of selling HMOs and what makes a good one
3/29/2021
Today I'm delighted to be joined by Richard Nicholls, founder of The Property Advantage which as far as I can tell is the larger specialist HMO brokerage in the UK, helping landlords by selling HMOs they no longer want, and investors buy ready-made income-producing assets.
Richard's approach is to view every HMO the company sells, so with hundreds of transactions completed he's probably got a better insight into what makes a good HMO, and as importantly, what makes a bad one than virtually...

340: Dave So on why he opted for the student HMO strategy and building a huge portfolio
3/22/2021
Today, I'm delighted to be joined by Dave So, probably the most humble investor I've ever come across but do not let his laid-back approach fool you. Since buying his first student HMO in 2013 he's gone on to buy and renovate over 300 rooms in his home city of Nottingham, adding to his own portfolio and on behalf of other landlords and investors.
The crazy part of all of this is he did most of this whilst holding down a full-day corporate job as well, which he finally decided to step away...

3/15/2021
Today I'm delighted to be joined by Sarah Watt, one-half of Alt Street property along with her husband Andrew. This is our second episode as part of our 2021 HMO month where we're focussing on the strategy that allowed Victoria and I to leave the corporate world behind and talking to investors who have used HMOs to achieve similar results in their own lives.
Sarah started investing in her early twenties in Sydney, Australia and continues investing to this day alongside her busy day job,...
