| 0:00.0 | Hey everyone, it's Rob B here with Rob D and you are listening to the Property Podcast. It's market update time. |
| 0:07.5 | We've got big news on London. Lots of stories there. Interest rates have cut. What does that mean? |
| 0:12.1 | And really fascinating data around rentals and so much more. |
| 0:25.0 | Welcome to the property podcast. In case you don't know, we run a company that buys more than ÂŁ100 million worth of property every single year for our clients. We can find out about that at |
| 0:29.1 | property hub.net slash invest. But today, we are bringing you up to date on everything you need to |
| 0:33.5 | know as an investor in today's property market. And make sure you stick around to the end |
| 0:38.0 | because in Hub Extra, we're sharing some new tools and techniques that we've been using for |
