Insurance: What You REALLY Need To Know (PCEO410)

8/2/2019
“Getting the inside track on property insurance…” Insurance is a necessary part of everyday life, and property is no different. Whether you're a developer or a landlord, insurance is an essential ingredient in your business, and it’s one that you need to know you can rely on should the worst happen. Unfortunately, it’s also one of a thousand different things that property people have to worry about, and as a result it can sometimes become something of an afterthought. Today we welcome Heather Gatrell from commercial insurance broker HGI to the studio to tell us about the common challenges that face property people when it comes to insurance, and how having a good broker on your side can help ensure that you not only have the protection you need, but also the benefit of a guiding hand in the event of a claim. We also learn that one of the co-presenters has a secret passion for studying insurance documentation (but only the pictures). The propertyCEO Podcast gives you an inside track in the world of property for investors and developers, both new and experienced. Your two hugely experienced hosts discuss a wide range of subjects, while usually managing to disagree about something.

Financial Freedom (And Where To Find It) (PCEO409)

7/26/2019
“What does it mean and how can we get it?” Financial Freedom is a phrase that we hear very often these days and it’s no wonder; for most people the thought of being financially free sounds truly aspirational. But what exactly does to be financially free actually mean and, even if you know what it means to you, how can you get there? In this episode Ian and Ritchie look at why financial freedom means different things to different people. They also touch on the exciting world of passive income before giving us some thoughts as to how we might want to plot our journey to becoming financially free ourselves. We also get reminded that careless test-driving causes nausea whilst the careless consumption of pastries can give you the dreaded ‘brown stripe’.

Try A Little Tendering (PCEO408)

7/19/2019
“How to compare apples and apples…” Putting your projects out to tender is a critical part of the development process, however it can be fraught with difficulty. Who should you ask to quote and how many contractors should you ask? And what exactly should you be asking for? One of the key problems that developers encounter is that they either get too few quotes or the quotes they get range from the sublime to the ridiculous. In some cases, it’s as if they're quoting for a completely different job! So how can you make sure that your shortlisted contractors are quoting apples and apples, and give you a fighting chance of picking the best one? In this episode Ritchie dives into the tendering process, highlighting some key tips not only for selecting the right contractor, but how you can make sure that the quotes you get back are detailed enough for you to be able to compare quotes properly. We also hear a debate on some practical considerations regarding the redesign of the propertyCEO training suite plus we discover that for some people, carpet swatches can be a source of embarrassment and confusion.

Planning Permission vs Permitted Development (PCEO407)

7/12/2019
“Getting control of your development…” There are lots of scary planning stories out there. People who buy a building or plot of land with the intention of starting a development only to find that the project gets refused by the planners or gets stuck in a seemingly endless planning approval process. And all the while the clock is ticking and the finance costs ramp up; it can be a frustrating and expensive place to find yourself, and one as a developer you want to avoid at all costs. Enter Permitted Development rights, a process introduced by the government to speed up the planning process and to make it easier and quicker to get development projects underway. In this episode Ritchie takes us through the key issues that can come into play when going down the traditional development route, and the numerous advantages that Permitted Development rights offer both new and existing developers. There’s also some frankly lame fishing excuses from one of the team whilst the other kicks out an old and trusted friend in favour of a younger, more glamorous looking model.

The Architect’s View (PCEO404)

6/21/2019
“More than just part of your design team…” The architect is without doubt one of the most important and influential professionals on any development project, and their input and influence can extend well beyond the design process. But for both new and existing developers, how do they know if they’re getting the best out of that relationship, and what mistakes do developers commonly make when engaging the services of an architect? Mike Sandhu, director of architects SC Architecture pops into the studio to share his invaluable insight into the 5 key things that developers most often get wrong when working with architects. He also explains how the right architect can help you with a lot more than simply drawing up plans, and what you need to think about when getting an architect involved during the early stages of a project.

Communication Is King (PCEO403)

6/14/2019
“Keeping the relationship” The path to successful property development is built on personal relationships. But it’s also a bit of a minefield, often with lots of emotion involved particularly on the part of the developer. This can quite often be the case when challenges crop up on a project. So how do you make sure that you keep your relationships working effectively?

Nail Your Viewings (PCEO402)

6/7/2019
“It’s all in the checklist” One thing most property people have in common is that at some point, they have to do viewings. Whether you're a developer or a landlord, viewing properties goes with the territory. So why is it most people do it so badly? In this episode Ritchie takes us through his top tips for doing viewings. What equipment do you need to take with you? What should you have on your viewing checklist?
