Summary

It’s time for your weekly dose of Ask Rob & Rob - let's get stuck into two new questions! (00:42) Fatai is looking to sell up, but with so much global uncertainty, is now really the right time? Rob B looks at what history tells us about timing the market during periods of instability. (04:35) David wants to jump straight into two student HMOs, but is it wise considering he’s never ventured into this market before? Rob D explains why going all-in could backfire, and why taking a more measured approach might pay off.
