Summary

We’re back for part two of Strategy September and this week we’re talking about HMO’s.  The Robs have talked about HMO’s numerous times on The Property Podcast, but they wouldn’t consider themselves experts.  So this week they’ve brought in another Rob who knows pretty much anything and everything about HMO’s. Enter Rob from Maygreen Investments who, along with his wife Sarah, has built up a portfolio of HMO’s that are absolutely beautiful. You can have a nosey here.  Here’s a little taster of what you can expect The Robs, and Rob, to cover: What is a HMO? And an example of one The advantages and disadvantages of a HMO Who should be looking at investing in a HMO? Some great tips from Rob if you’re looking at a HMO strategy This is a jam-packed episode, so make sure you’re listening carefully and have a pen and paper at the ready.    And in the news, we’re elaborating on an article we included in last Friday’s Hub Extra email - yes, we’re talking about politicians again. The article comes from The Daily Mail and it reads, ‘John McDonnell is to declare war on buy-to-let landlords by giving tenants the chance to purchase their property at a DISCOUNT price’.  We might need to apologise in advance before you listen to this episode as The Robs get a little political on this topic. It’s not with the intention to offend, but quite frankly it’s all a bit ridiculous. We can’t blame them for voicing their opinions on something so bizarre. Have a listen and let us know your thoughts on the matter.    And in this week’s Hub Extra, we’ve got a new podcast for you. This one is called ‘Land of the Giants’ and the concept is that in each of the series they’re going to focus on one of the tech giants like Google, Apple, and other similar businesses. The first series is on Amazon, and each episode explores how Amazon has got to where they are today and how it’s not only evolved but changed the world as well. It’s a great podcast on the businesses that we just can’t seem to live without.    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. Make sure you’ve liked and subscribed to our YouTube channel where we upload new content every week! 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.
