Summary

It’s Tuesday and you know what that means... Rob & Rob are back for another round of listener questions, and we’ve got some super interesting ones this week.  We recently announced on The Property Podcast that we’re crowdfunding (you can find the full episode here and pre-register here) and that got one of our listeners wondering...  Sam heard our latest announcement and was super excited! But he couldn’t help but wonder what does crowdfunding actually mean and why would someone invest in it?  Next up, we’ve got a question from Argent in London and it’s all about the 18-year property cycle.  Argent’s wondering if he could use this interesting play to his advantage...  He’d like to know if he times it right, could he keep his money liquefied and out of the property market until the crash, then swoop in and bag himself a discounted deal?   OR is he better of just buying now as he’ll still benefit in the long term?  Tune in and find out what advice Rob & Rob have got for these two listeners!  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.  And if you’d like to find out more information about Portfolio you can do that here.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
