Summary

This week on The Property Podcast, Rob & Rob are answering your top 10 Brexit questions. Over the past couple of weeks we’ve been talking Brexit. Are we staying, are we going? Who knows! In episode 312we heard from some Hubbers who were determined to not let Brexit scupper their property investment plans, and Rob & Rob backed this up by sharing their thoughts on the current state of affairs. Since then, we’ve been inundated with your Brexit questions and this week, Rob & Rob tackle them head on. Tune in to find out: Will the market crash? Will prices go up or down? What effect will this have on owner/occupiers? How will Brexit affect the long term property market? What should I do next? And In the news this week, we have a bit of positivity for once! The Halifax House Price Index shows a huge property price increase of 5.9% in February - adding more than £13,000 to the average house price in just one month! Rob D is a bit dubious about the report, so tune in to find out what he has to say. In Hub Extra this week, The Robs are talking about something that you’ve possibly heard of before - and that’s Monzo. Monzo is an online bank account that gives you instant spending notifications, so no more waiting for those pending transactions to appear on your statement. Do you have a Monzo account? Get in touch and let us know what you think of it or, if you end up signing up to it, let us know how you find it.   We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do. If that wasn’t enough, you can also join our friendly property community on the Property Hub forum. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

And after doing a sterling job of avoiding him talking about Brexit for the most part, for the last couple of years,

0:32.0

we're now talking about it for the third week in a row, but we have to because things are coming to a head.

0:36.3

People are worried about what might happen and people want to know how to take advantage of what's happening.

So this week's new story Rob is really interesting because on last week's podcast we

covered quite a few new stories and many of them were negative. So a really, really positive news story this week

with some unbelievable numbers attached and of course this was covered by

1:29.1

But the interesting thing, Rob, is that despite this being the exact opposite of everything that we've read recently
