An episode so good, we did it twice, and even hit the time limit! We're ready to become obsessed with collecting cats again. How about you? Also, I'm not linking Atlas Earth but I did google it and it says it has nothing to do with bitcoins or NFTs even though I swear it used to advertise bitcoins in its older ads. Either it was misleading before, …

You've bought an investment property, or you're planning to? Ok. Quick question... Have you bought a house, a home, a property, or an asset? All just words of course. But the one you choose will say a lot about your mindset as an investor. If you chose any of the 1st three words, then you maybe have a hobby. Or an interest. Or a side hustle. If you…

Where is the prime place in the UK to face, experience, challenge and enjoy “the game” of property, planning, building and development? It has to be London, yes? And the ‘spear’ for facing that battle needs to be credible and powerful. So how about the iconic name of Barratt? And for the tip of that spear, you’re going to need someone who has seen …

So you've had challenges in your life, yeah? Ever been made homeless? Ever had that happen to you and your family before you were even 1 year old? No? What about feeling that life is against you?

Did you know exactly what you wanted to do after school? No, neither did today's guest, Sean Spalding. He passed some Higher Exams, he had some jobs in retail and sales. He even tried searching down a few different paths with college, university, working with his dad, and even applying to join the police force. Curiously searching around for his pa…

What things pop into your head as a seller or a buyer when the word "auction" is mentioned? A large, stuffy room with over-emotional bidders waving paddles in the air and paying over the odds for a property they haven't properly considered? A seller having to give away massive amounts of their property's value just to desperately get a sale that th…

Are we handing over too much power to machines and robots with all the latest and greatest apps and AI tools? What if someone could ensure the changes and developments we make, have the person, the human, very much centre of focus? What if the resident or tenant was thought of first, before any technical changes? What if the client or property owne…

I've not really got time for property? Have you heard that before? Have you maybe even said it yourself before?

Are there 2 words other than "Capital Allowances" that sound more mysterious and complex to property investors? If there are, we'd like to hear them! Too difficult to understand, too complex to navigate, and too advanced to waste time investigating. That's a common reaction to property owners and investors. But if they could be shown the huge amoun…

There are some words that strike fear in the hearts of property investors. 'Tax' and 'Stamp Duty' are up there with the most terrifying. And in that world are abbreviations that not only add to the terror but also demonstrate the minefield of complexity that investors have to try and tip-toe their way through safely: SDLT, LBTT, and LTT. But for ev…

If a story had a character that was a young man born in Germany, and another young man born in Scotland and living a lot of his life out to sea, it would be a hard task for the author to somehow bring them together in the story. If you then factor into that storyline a random scenario of the two men standing beside each other in a large group photo…

Having the courage and determination to build a successful business that can positively impact your life and the lives of the family around you is a noble and worthwhile journey to go on.

Just save every penny and cut back on your costs! We can't afford that! All debt is bad! What if we've been lied to? What if the bankers running the show and the politicians making the rules, have all had us running around in the rat race of work and money, using stories that are nothing but illusions? What if there's another way to look at this wh…

Take everything you think you know about property auctions - too urgent and unpredictable for the buyer, too much money lost for the seller, too much hassle for an estate agent - and throw it out of the window. Today's guest, Jamie Cooke, one of the Co-Founders of iamproperty, explains how things can, and are, very different. The UK's largest resid…

Everyone in property today knows about the buzz and the hype of the Furnished Holiday Let / Serviced Accommodation sector. But what if you were someone who operates ahead of the curves in the market?

Sadly, the majority of business people and investors set off excitedly on their path to generate income and build wealth, without a proper thought on their end goal. What is it they want to achieve?

We can invest in property, we can run businesses, and we can manage teams. But if WE are not personally on point - healthy, fit, relaxed, rested, and energetic - then none of it will matter and all of it will suffer.

There's a lot of things said about working as a team. "Team work makes the dream work" - heard that one. "A team that works together grows together" - heard that one too.
