Summary

It’s Tuesday and Rob & Rob are back with another episode of Ask Rob & Rob. And this time, they’re not Coronavirus related questions. Wahoo!  So, first up this week we’ve got Richard. He’s watched our video and listened to our podcast episode on The Robs’ 2020 property hotspots and is wondering if Rob & Rob favour city centre apartments as opposed to other investment types outside of a city centre.  Now Rob & Rob don’t necessarily prefer one or the other, or invest in just city centre locations themselves. But the advice they’re about to give to Richard is weighing up the pros and cons of both.  Our second caller this week is Steve and he’s been investing on and off for around 15 years now. He’s now looking to get into the sourcing department to be able to source properties for himself and clients.  He’s spotted a city that he wants to focus on, but is finding it difficult and time consuming trying to find a town within that city that ticks all the boxes.  So, what tips and tricks can The Robs share with Steve?  Tune in to find out.    Do you have a buy to let or property investment related question for Rob & Rob? You could feature on the next episode by giving us a call on 013 808 00035 and leaving a message with your name and question (normal UK call rates apply).    Or if you prefer, click here to leave a recording via your computer instead. The next question on Ask Rob & Rob could be yours.  Have you joined us over on the Property Hub Forum yet? Our online community is friendly, informative, and the members are waiting to welcome you with open arms. So get yourself over and introduce yourself.
