Summary

Listener deals are back! In one of our favourite and most popular types of episode, this week we run a live analysis of investment opportunities submitted by listeners. Listen in as we assess the prospects of: A swanky semi with value-adding potential in Kingston-upon-Thames – but do the numbers stack up? A potential flip in south Wales that’s mysteriously stuck on the market A solid buy-to-let investment that stands to benefit from HS2 – but is it overpriced? If you enjoy this episode, you can also check out our previous “listener deals” episodes here and here. RESOURCE OF THE WEEK The 18 year property cycle is the concept that’s captured listeners’ imaginations more than anything else (even our jokes) – so we thought it was high time we put together a course on it! Naturally, it’s completely free and you can watch it here – all you need is a Property Hub account. NEWS THIS WEEK Rent controls are on the way in Edinburgh and Glasgow, as local authorities indicate their intention to make use of new powers they’re being granted. It’s not as dramatic as it sounds and nothing firm has been announced yet, but we’ll keep you updated as more details emerge. In the meantime, the housing minister Alok Sharma has reassured landlords in England that rent controls won’t happen under the current government. JOIN OUR DISCOVERY WEBINAR! Now featuring a registration link that actually works – sorry if you tried to register last week! On 27 September at 6pm, we’ll be holding a webinar where you can find out more about what we offer through our businesses: Yellow Lettings and RMP Property. We don’t like to push our businesses on the podcast, so the webinar gives you the opportunity to find out more about how you can benefit from what we do – and you don’t even have to leave the house! Book your place here (It’s completely free, but places are limited.) JOIN THE CONVERSATION Did you learn anything useful from hearing how we think about these deals? Do you have any deals of your own where you’d like to get input from other Hub members? We’d love to know, so join the discussion in The Property Hub! IF YOU ENJOYED THE PROPERTY PODCAST, PLEASE LEAVE A REVIEW ON ITUNES Reviews are really important in helping other people to find the show, so by way of thanks we read out every single review we receive on air.

0:05.7

0:14.0

No major prep, this is raw reactions.

0:16.0

You get our real thoughts on these deals, feedback and advice.

0:20.0

Let's do it.

0:32.0

Yeah, we do love these ones. We've done it a couple of times before. It's really popular. We had a great time, so we're doing it again. Thank you for sending in your deals a lot of you have

0:34.6

We're gonna get to a few of those later on so you'll see if yours got chosen but even if it didn't you should hopefully

0:40.3

learn a lot from looking at the way that we approach the deals that we do look at.

0:44.8

So that's coming up plus an interesting slash troubling news story, but first Rob a few bits to

0:49.7

get through starting off most importantly with the summit which we had up in Manchester the

0:53.9

other week and what a fantastic day it was it was sunny Manchester no it wasn't sunny

0:58.3

of course it wasn't but it was a great day great group of people really good

1:02.4

investors I'm excited for them because they've connected

1:05.2

with some brilliant like-minded people. The summit are all sold out, so this isn't trying to get you to buy a course,

1:11.5

or if I like that, they're sold out for the year, the November

1:13.8

one in London. There's long been sold out and it's a waiting list for the next one. But we're really looking for to that

1:18.8

London one now because the Manchester one was really good, really strong group and it's the first one in this new format where

1:25.3

we've got a smaller group of people and there is a bit of a qualification process to get in,

1:29.4

but it worked really well.

1:30.5

Yeah, and someone brought chocolates so I was happy. so if you are coming to a future summit and you want to

1:34.6

endear yourself to me you know how to do it. So that was a hard to beat those Swiss chocolates as well.

1:39.6

Yeah. Phoned over from Switzerland. Exactly so that's what that's what she told us anyway. It could have been from the duty for able.
