Summary

First of all, we’d just like to warn listeners that this episode of The Property Podcast does contain a few curse words, but it’s down to Rob & Rob getting rather passionate. Because today’s episode has the potential to change your life… In today’s episode Rob & Rob are going to be giving you a framework that will set you up for massive success. So, how can you smash this next decade? Let’s find out… Decide what you want  Be willing to do difficult things  Beware of the cost of perfection  Think long term  Mindset  The Robs go into a whole lot of detail around these five topics. So much so that you’re probably going to want to grab a pen and notepad before you start listening.  So, grab a cuppa, settle in, and let Rob & Rob guide you through how you can smash the next decade!   In the news this week, The Robs are grinning like Cheshire cats as a headline from the Express reads, ‘UK Property: Largest monthly increase in asking prices EVER recorded after Election 2019’. According to data from Rightmove, asking prices have risen by 2.3% which is equivalent to an average increase of £6,785!  Just remember, these are asking prices and not sold prices which doesn’t necessarily mean that house prices are about to jump 2%, but it’s interesting to see the optimism of sellers.    We’ve also got a treat for you this week. Our marketing team are desperate to hit that magic 10K followers/subscribers on Instagram and YouTube and when we do, we’re going to be releasing this bloopers video!  So make sure you go to our YouTube channel and subscribe, and go give us a follow on Instagram and we’ll announce when we’ve hit 10K.   This week’s Hub Extra is a book that ties in nicely with today’s podcast episode. It’s a book by Robert Iger who is the CEO of Disney and it’s called ‘Ride of a Lifetime’. Rob B is a huge fan of Disney from a business perspective so this book was at the top of his Christmas wish list. However, before he had a chance to read it, Rob D pipped him to the post and finished it! This is the perfect example of thinking long term and really looking at the bigger picture in order to achieve success.   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.

Hello and welcome to the Property Podcast a warning in this week's episode we get passionate

0:08.8

we even swear but this episode and I don't say this lightly has the potential to change your life

0:22.4

Welcome to the Property podcast where every Thursday property investors come to be informed and inspired.

0:27.5

It's a start of a new decade with all the potential that brings.

0:30.5

It's a blank sheet of paper. What are you going to do with it? How are you going to make sure you put the next 10 years to good use? Well, that's a big question, but that's one that we're going to attempt to answer for you in this episode. And if you stick around to the end for Hub Extra, we're sharing a book which is a strong contender for my book of the year already.

Rob, I'm loving the headline of this week's news story.

0:51.0

Good times ahead it seems because the headline reads

0:53.5

UK Property largest monthly increase in asking prices ever recorded after election

0:59.5

2019.

1:00.5

Wilesus here we go. Yes indeed, this is according to data from Right Move, who say

1:06.6

that asking prices have risen by 2.3%, equivalent to an average increase of 6,785 pounds, that's the largest monthly movement ever.

1:17.0

Now of course these are just asking prices.

1:20.0

These aren't sold prices, so that doesn't mean that house prices are suddenly going to jump 2%.

1:25.0

It might just mean that sellers are getting a bit over-optimistic.

1:28.0

But it's that optimism point that I think is interesting,

1:31.0

because when you get data about what properties have actually sold for,

1:34.4

there's normally a bit of a lag, but when you're looking at asking prices, it's a little bit forward-looking

1:39.9

or at least it's telling you how people are feeling in the market now.

1:44.0

And after such a long time of people waiting and seeing, not making any moves,

1:48.8

being nervous about what's going on politically,

1:51.4

it does feel a little bit like there's a lot of pent up pressure and it's like a

1:54.5

cork flying out of the bottle. Now we've got, relatively speaking, more certainty.
