Are you an aspiring property investor, landlord or already investing in property but for whatever reason feel like you’re missing a piece of the puzzle to become successful?
Are you left feeling like everyone else is riding high on their own property investment journey while you’re left feeling exhausted, stressed and out of pocket?
Maybe you have attended property training courses, workshops, networking groups,?bought dozens of books, joined mentorship programmes and participated in the mastermind groups yet you still feel like you’re making progress at a snail’s pace?
I’ve been investing in property for 15 years and during this time I’ve bought and sold over £5m in property and I’ve done it on my own.?I’ve also delved into the world of property training courses, I’ve been mentored and I’ve read the books.?I’ve learnt what works, the mistakes that will cost you dearly and what you need to have to be a successful property investor.
How many times have you listened to the same investment model plugged as new 'content’??I know you’ve been told how easy it is; buy a property, refurbish it and refinance your money out of it to invest into another and repeat.?You’ve been told to keep recycling the same pot of ‘cash’ but in reality you’re learning the challenges faced when trying to implement this strategy in today’s market.
