| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone, Robby here with Rob De and you are listening to the property podcast. |
| 0:06.6 | An expert has predicted that the property market will crash in 2026. |
| 0:12.3 | This is an expert who predicted the last crash. |
| 0:14.6 | Not only did he predict it, he predicted it down to the quarter. |
| 0:17.8 | So we dig into exactly what he has to say and what it means for the UK property |
| 0:22.3 | market. Welcome to the property podcast. Thank you for joining it. In case you don't know, |
| 0:32.0 | we run a company that buys more than £100 million worth of property for our clients every year. |
| 0:36.1 | You can find out more about that at property hub.net slash invest. And all of our clients, all investors, everyone always wants to know |
| 0:42.8 | is a crash coming? So when someone with a very impressive track record says, yes, you're probably |
| 0:47.9 | going to want to understand more. Well, don't worry, that is exactly what we're going to do in this |

| 1:15.4 | So it's talking about how there are now more people moving from London to Manchester than |
| 1:19.6 | vice versa. It's talking about how, get this, the city centre population is currently 100,000, |
| 1:24.2 | is projected to reach a quarter of a million, And in 1990, it was 500. 500 people, |
| 1:30.4 | not 500,000. In 1990, there are 500 people living in the city centre of Manchester. And now it's 100,000. |
| 1:36.0 | That is mental. Absolutely crazy. And it's just a really good article explaining how this has |
| 1:42.5 | happened and whether the rest of the country can learn something for it. Well worth a read. Even though we've been talking about this kind of thing for a long time, it's really nice to see it all in one place. It is. And Manchester doing so well. We'll be no surprise to listen to this podcast because we've talked about it for years. It's been a consistent hotspot pick for us over the years.
