I am thrilled to be back today with an episode I am so excited for you to listen to with an amazing lady called Sabine Abdou, a property investor who comes from a background in corporate negotiations – a really switched-on individual who applies her corporate expertise to a lot of the deals that she is doing in property.  And today we get into some of those details I think you will find really interesting, like how she applies that background in corporate negotiations to securing all money out deals. She started investing seriously only a few years ago back in 2020 after almost a lifelong ..read more

Welcome back, dear listeners, to a very special episode that feels like a long-awaited reunion with an old friend. Seven years have flown by since we first sat down with one of the most memorable guests to grace our show, Jasper Ribbers. With over 400 episodes under our belt, Jasper’s name still lights up conversations at events, and it’s easy to see why. His journey wasn’t about amassing a vast portfolio or raking in eye-watering sums of money. No, Jasper’s story struck a chord because it was a masterclass in designing a life of freedom and adventure. If you’re just tuning in for the firs ..read more

Today, we’re diving into the remarkable journey of Matthew Sheriff, a go-getter who kicked off his investing career with minimal experience, limited time due to a full-time job, and scarce capital. If you’ve ever felt the squeeze of juggling various commitments while pursuing your investment goals, Matthew’s story will surely resonate with you. What’s truly inspiring is how, in a relatively short span from 2018 to 2019, Matthew turned these challenges into opportunities, successfully establishing not just one, but two outstanding businesses. From humble beginnings as a sourcing business, hi ..read more

Today I’m going to be talking about portfolio growth – how you can get from where you are at the moment, to where you want to be. Specifically, I’m thinking about the options available to you if you’ve already started investing – you’ve done a couple of deals, or maybe a lot of deals, rather than those of you who are just thinking about getting started. But even if that is you – where property is something you want to get involved with but you haven’t jumped in yet – it’s still worth paying attention to this because what I’m going to outline in this episode will become relevant to you soon, an ..read more

Listen to this episode below: Today I am delighted to be joined by Lee Pemberton, an investor who had a hunch the serviced accommodation industry was going to explode 18 years ago, only about 17 years before most of us had even heard about it.

Today’s guest is no stranger to the show, despite actually never appearing on a podcast episode with us in the past. And that is because his wife, his partner in crime, Jackie Tomes, has been a guest several times in the past and often refers to ‘Detail Dave’ with affection during those interviews. Today I’m thrilled to be joined by Dave himself talking through what really gets him excited and fired up, which is all things numbers, spreadsheets, and data to help make sure that as property investors, our portfolios are optimised as much as possible.  And through one of his services that h ..read more

Today’s guest, George Ball, brings a unique perspective to the property industry. With a background in sales, George has crafted a highly profitable strategy in land assembly. This involves negotiating with multiple homeowners or property owners to create parcels of land that he secures planning for. He then either develops these himself or sells them on to another developer for a considerable profit. However, George realized that alongside these substantial profits, he also wanted more recurring revenue. That’s where our paths crossed. A couple of years ago, George found our Inside HMO Inves ..read more

Hey folks, welcome to what was supposed to be episode 400 of the Inside Property Investing podcast, but apparently is episode 401.   What I thought would be nice to celebrate 400 episodes and almost nine years of the podcast was to run through some of the biggest lessons that I’ve learned from the various podcast interviews that I’ve done – some from specific guests and others just by osmosis from hearing them time and time again from lots of different people succeeding in the property world and talking about how they were able to do it… seeing the repetition, seeing the things that ..read more

I’m just coming out of my little Christmas / New Year hibernation. I’ve been up in Scotland for a couple of weeks at my folks house with Victoria and our little girl, hanging out with family and eating all the food and watching all the Christmas films and doing all that stuff.  So I just want to start off by wishing you a massive Happy New Year, whatever you’ve been up to, whatever holidays you celebrate. I hope you had a good little break whilst everyone else shut down and you’re feeling refreshed and ready to go for the year ahead. Now this is a New Year focused episode. I’m not talkin ..read more
