Today I was standing in The Shard looking out across London when I spotted something familiar…

The council flat I grew up in.

It made me stop and think about how much can change when you keep showing up, keep learning and keep moving forward.

Life doesn’t change overnight.

But a few good decisions, repeated over time, can completely transform your future.

So if you’re working towards something right now, don’t quit.

Keep pushing.

Keep learning.

Keep going.

Your future self will thank you for it. 👊

Comment “FREEDOM” if you’re committed to building a better future.

Nearly 200 academy members joined us today in Watford for an incredible day of training, networking and property education. 🚀

From expert sessions with our in-house solicitor and coaching team, to members sharing deals, wins and lessons from the real world, the energy in the room was unbelievable.

The biggest opportunities often come from being in the right room with the right people.

If you weren’t here today, make sure you’re at the next one.

You’re only one conversation away from your next deal. 👊

Most investors think they have to wait until the refinance is complete before they can rent the property out.

Not true.

If the property is ready, you can often start generating income while the remortgage process is underway.

Better cash flow.
More proof of income.
A smoother refinance.

Small detail. Big difference.

Most investors get this completely wrong.

They find a property and then try to work out if it’s a good deal.

The best investors do the opposite.

Start with the end value.

Then deduct:
✔️ Refurb costs
✔️ Finance costs
✔️ Your profit margin

Whatever is left is your maximum offer.

It’s not guesswork.
It’s just numbers.

He bought this property for £160,000.

Spent £15,000 on the refurb.

A few fees later, it was revalued at £275,000.

The interesting part?

He had none of his own money in the deal.

Private investor for the deposit.
Bridging loan for the purchase.
A clear plan from day one.

Never buy investment property in your personal name...

Guy and his wife started with £40,000.

Today, they’ve built a £2 million property portfolio using private finance.

Over their last 3 projects, they’ve worked with just 3 investors.

The investors earn a return on their money.
Guy gets to grow his portfolio.
Everyone wins.

The biggest difference?

They stopped trying to do it alone and learned how property investors actually raise finance.

Most people are looking for commercial property in the wrong place.

By the time a deal hits Rightmove, it’s usually been seen, analysed and passed on by experienced investors.

If you want better commercial property opportunities, build relationships with commercial surveyors.

Tell them exactly what you’re looking for.

When the right deal lands on their desk, you’ll be one of the first people they call.

People always assume my favourite car is the Rolls Royce or the Porsche 🚘

But the truth is… it’s actually my Tesla ⚡

I’ve had it for over a decade and it’s never let me down

The technology still blows me away today

Sometimes the best things aren’t the most expensive 💭

This commercial deal was originally on the market for £620,000.

We bought it for £530,000 👀

But the interesting part isn't the discount...

It's the fact we bought 3 units instead of 1.

If one tenant leaves, the other two are still paying rent.

Less risk.
More stability.
Better cash flow.

And we didn't find it on Rightmove either.

Sometimes the best deals never make it that far.
