Summary

This is the end! Well… it’s the end of Strategy September at least. And we have a great one to finish off on, because today we’re covering the refurb property strategy. And to help us, we’re welcoming Ian back to the Property Podcast.  Ian’s no stranger to our shows; he’s been on the podcast twice before and he has years of experience with building and construction, not to mention the fact that he’s a property developer and investor himself - so what better episode to have him share his practical knowledge and experience... Today you’ll learn: What a refurb actually is The varying types of refurbs The advantages of a refurb strategy How you can add value to a refurb The disadvantages of a refurb  How to keep your budget in check So there you have it - everything you need to know about the refurb strategy; made even better by Ian sharing some words of wisdom with us. Have a listen and let us know if the refurb strategy is for you.     Now, if you've followed Strategy September, hopefully you’ve found the right property strategy for you. We’ve covered: Buy-to-let HMO Flips   But if you haven't found the right one, don’t fear. We’ve got you! You can book a free goals call with one of our team by clicking here. Our team can help you get clear on your goals, identify what property strategy is likely to be right for you and more importantly, help you discover how you can get started and hit the ground running. And we’ll say it again…. It’s completely free.  Hit this link and pick your date and time.   And in the news this week, we’ve got another political story. Now don’t all shut down your computers at once, because it’s actually a pretty positive one. It’s a press release from the government: PM renews drive to give more power to Northern regions.  Typically for the government, there’s not a lot of detail here, but there are a few pleasing aspects of the release - particularly for Scotland. There’s a fair few things in here that have made Rob B smile, so listen to hear what he thinks of this latest update.    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.

So if you haven't heard a strategy that sounds spot on for you so far, maybe today is the day,

0:32.4

so stick around. So let's get into the news story

0:35.2

that's caught our eye this week and as it has been a lot recently it's about

0:40.0

politics but unusually Rob there seems to be a good news story relating to

0:43.7

politics it really is and that's possibly why it didn't that much coverage

0:48.0

because it is good news thank you to Nathan for emailing this one answer. And the link that you'll find in our

0:54.3

show notes on the Property Hub website is a press release from the government and

0:58.3

it's Prime Minister Boris Johnson will today renew drive to give more power to northern regions.

1:03.7

Now there's not a lot of detail here which is fairly difficult for

1:08.7

the government announcements as we found out over the last few years. But the sentiment is pleasing.

1:14.6

Scotland has benefited dramatically by having more say on what it puts its money into

1:19.6

and how it runs itself as a country. Now there's no talk here of devolution or anything that far-fetched,

1:26.2

but the fact is the Northern Powerhouse and the Midlands are often overlooked by our London-led

government. You only need to look at the transport spend per person

1:35.1

to see that huge difference and the theme of this press release does seem to focus on
