In this episode, Mark Winship talks about the best ways to find and engage a property education coach - the things you should look for, and the questions you should always be asking! KEY TAKEAWAYS Social media is awash with self-proclaimed property gurus. The trick is knowing which ones to listen to. Credible experience is key. One thing is for sure - education is vital when it comes to investing Choosing a mentor or coach is crucial, as it gives you a lead to follow. Any property investor that's been active for a while will likely have many different examples of their success. Never be afraid to ask. Trust works both ways. Quantity doesn't always equal quality. Don't assume that many properties in a portfolio means that everything is running smoothly. Also, numbers can be embellished.  BEST MOMENTS 'Social media is a pretty unregulated place' 'It's not easy. It's not particularly transparent' 'Be sure that what people are presenting represents the reality of things'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship is joined once more by Emily Smith to talk about the ethics of a direct-to-vendor strategy, and how to construct deals that provide positive winning outcomes for all sides. KEY TAKEAWAYS Using the direct-to-vendor strategy should not be synonymous with exploitation. You need to look for ways to provide positive outcomes for all sides. Direct-to-vendor deals are deals and sales found directly, bypassing agents and cutting out the middle man that is usually involved in sales. The base things you need in order to go direct-to-vendor are business cards or something that has your details upon it, and some sort of letter (handwritten if possible) setting out your intentions.  BEST MOMENTS 'The vast majority of people still believe that the only way to buy property is through an agent' 'What direct-to-vendor gives you is flexibility' 'You need to have something that states what you're looking for, and why you're looking for it'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship talks to Emily Smith about the popular 'flip' strategy - buying a property, improving it, and selling on for a profit. The team also cover the keys to a successful flip, and whether they work in any market cycle. KEY TAKEAWAYS Often it takes a broader perspective in order to recognise the best way of generating value from a property. Flips can often be the best way to maximise returns. The cash generated from flips are a fantastic resource to support the other strategies you may be using as an investor. If you are planning to self-manage, you need to be clear about the roles your team will be expected to oversee and perform. Staging is an aspect that many forget about when flipping. properties are far easier to sell if the buyer can visualise.  BEST MOMENTS 'I like to keep it very clear cut' 'Get the deal done, pay them back and move on to the next deal' 'That cash strategy gives you options'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

This week, Caroline Claydon talks about the importance of self-care, why we should recognise ourselves as our most important asset, and why a regular injection of positivity and encouragement is vital in optimising our success. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many investors forget that property is only a tool that generates income. We are, in fact, the most important component in our business and we need to take care of ourselves. Always be kind to yourself, and look after yourself. See yourself as a tool that needs care and replenishment from time to time. External factors can make us feel as though we're suffocating. Stepping away and looking down upon ourselves from a new perspective can reassure us that things aren't necessarily as bad as they seem.  BEST MOMENTS 'We are the biggest income generating asset in our business' 'You are really vital to your business's success' 'With chaos comes opportunities'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship is joined by Caroline Claydon and Ryan Rogers, to discuss investing in Scotland - from the many attractive opportunities that can be had north of the border, as well as the key differences you need to be aware of when it comes to maximising your profits and investment potential. KEY TAKEAWAYS There is a dramatic rise in uniformity between properties in Scotland, but there is also a marked demand for social housing. Investing in flats and apartments can mean solid rental returns. Gazumping is allowed in Scotland, but it is greatly frowned upon and can have a huge impact upon your reputation. Exchanging contracts and completing is not done in Scotland - instead missives are signed. This becomes a legally biding contract from which neither party can extract themselves. The entire process of doing the deal is far more streamlined and takes weeks rather than the months we are used to in England.  BEST MOMENTS 'There's a very strong demand for social housing in Scotland' 'You can literally buy property in Scotland while sitting on a beach on the other side of the world' 'You can put in verbal offers without a solicitor' 'Just get that process started. Once the offer's accepted, then go and chat to your solicitor'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship is joined by Asaad Tariq to discuss the pros and cons in investing in industrial warehouse and storage space strategy - a strategy that is extraordinarily niche, but which if handled correctly can prove incredibly successful. KEY TAKEAWAYS The industrial market is one of the most bulletproof around, and is affected way less than residential in many cases. This alone makes it a powerful strategy. With the rise of eCommerce and the shift in the way we shop for goods, there has been an exponential increase in demand for storage space and warehousing facilities. The biggest factor in commercial is that it doesn't matter if you're new, a serious investor, or an angel investor - if your money is put into industrial or commercial, you always need to make sure your debt-to-charge ratio is over 25%.  BEST MOMENTS 'They need warehousing. Their sellers need warehousing. We're there to supply that' 'We're basically piggybacking off these big boys!'

Mark Winship is joined by Sarah Blaney, for a discussion all about hotels, and the ups and downs of this exciting property strategy, as well as operational challenges, and what they both love about playing "real life Monopoly" KEY TAKEAWAYS Quality means the world in hotel investing strategy. Repeat business is essential in creating a concern that runs almost automatically, plus it saves on the time you'll have to spend in attracting new clients. In order to get the best out of any property strategy, you need to surround yourself with people who've been there and done it. Services that advertise hotels are invaluable, so never be afraid of costs involved. They are worth every penny in helping people to find you.  BEST MOMENTS 'To have that repeat business is really important' 'Expectations of service are higher when it comes to a hotel' 'Word of mouth marketing seems to play as much more of a factor'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship is joined once more by Jerry Alexander, to discuss the complex issue of risk management - how it can manifest itself in property, and how the ways we manage it can play a huge role in how we choose to invest. KEY TAKEAWAYS Too many people look at risk too simplistically. It is a complex issue and needs a broad perspective. We need to step back and see how the multifaceted aspects of risk can trickle down to other areas. When we take a risk, sometimes it opens up new pathways in which risk may enter, such as insurance or liability. We need to be constantly aware. It's worth taking time to work out contingency plans, so that we may embark upon differing forms of strategy and tactics. Risk management is not about ignoring risks. it's about recognising and analysing the risks and then taking steps to mitigate.  BEST MOMENTS 'What are the consequences of NOT doing something?' 'If that eventuality then this is my mitigating step' 'How much is it influenced by the person and not the situation?' 'Bravery is not the absence of fear. It's what you do in response to fear'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

You will trust your potential when it comes to doing more deals.  BEST MOMENTS 'Momentum as a tangible force in property is a difficult idea to pin down' 'If you're reflecting on your journey and wondering where the momentum is, it's likely because your efforts have come in fits and starts' 'The minute you stop, that's when your momentum will stop, too'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship is joined by James D'Souza to talk about the most common reasons or blocks that prevent people from making progress towards their property goals. We've also got a special announcement regarding our 100th episode, which will be airing on the 7th November - stay tuned for your chance to win two free tickets to the Property Wealth System 3 Day Intensive Property Training Programme - a prize worth £2000! KEY TAKEAWAYS Some people like the idea of property, but when they try it, or learn more, they decide that it isn't for them. If this is you, then don't feel bad. This is absolutely fine! Education should be viewed as an ongoing thing. There's always more you can learn. Don't assume that you can know everything in no time at all. People think that having no money up front is a stumbling block. But there are many strategies that require no money down, and there are creative ways of attracting investors.  BEST MOMENTS 'For some people, property just is not for them' 'It's a combination of lack of money and lack of self-belief that stops people' 'Sometimes it's knowledge born out of lack of knowledge' 'There's never a wrong time to buy property so long as you're doing it in the right way'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem    To enter the competition, make sure you follow or subscribe to the podcast and leave a review, LIKE the Property Wealth System page on Facebook (SEE LINK BELOW), and then TAG 3 friends on the competition post you'll find there!

Mark Winship and Caroline Claydon discuss the art of outsourcing, including which tasks should be outsourced in life and business, how to recruit and train a great virtual assistant, and how to buy back time in your life by changing your mindset towards routine tasks. KEY TAKEAWAYS No one is naturally comfortable with outsourcing at the beginning. As human beings, we are a little untrusting that anyone else can do as good a job as we can. Learning to outsource efficiently is the best way of buying back your time, so that you can spend it working on high value tasks, and the important things in life. Surround yourself with like-minded people, and take your cues from the way they manage time. More often than not, they will devote themselves to the vital things, and outsource the mundane tasks. A virtual assistant will only be as good as the training we provide, so training them in something that we know well is a great starting point.  BEST MOMENTS 'It's easy to fall into the trap of working in your business when you should be working on your business' 'None of us got into the property adventure in order to create an extra full time, stressful job for ourselves' 'It's easy to get sucked into speaking to utility companies, or sorting out the council tax' ‘There are so many useful people out there, who are desperate to take on things we can do’  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

Mark Winship is joined by Andrea Carrington and James Horgan, to talk about your own home and the important role that it can play in helping you to achieve your property investment goals. KEY TAKEAWAYS Making sure that you stay abreast of the many strategies at hand in property, is crucial to utilising the right method at the right time. Using bridging loans can often be quite expensive. Freeing up equity in your own home means a far cheaper way of raising the finance you need to complete a deal. Your own home is an investment. You are consuming your own home. It's always worth using this investment asset in order to make your money work as hard as possible for you.  BEST MOMENTS 'Education is the key' 'I have no qualms about using the equity in my house' 'Your own home can be more of a liability than an asset. It costs you money'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

Mark Winship is joined by Ryan Rogers, to talk about why there's no need to panic in the wake of the Conservative mini-budget, as well as advice to investors about how best to proceed in the current market without being too distracted by the chaos created by the media. KEY TAKEAWAYS When upheavals occur in the market, it's always wise to stop and wait for the ensuing chaos to die down before making any rash decisions. Often, we discover that the panic is just that, and things aren't as bad as they seem. We are looking to be heading into a recession, but that doesn't always mean negativity for investors. This can provide opportunities for positive investment. Take care of the things that are definitely within your control, always stick to the actual facts rather than speculation, and look at potential savings in your portfolio.  BEST MOMENTS 'We're not reacting to the panic' 'If we do have to pivot on certain strategies, that's fine' 'Take the fear out of it, focus on the facts, and go back to what you can control'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

The show returns, and in this episode Mark Winship talks to Gill and Darren Green, to tell us all about their latest commercial investment project - everything from they raised the necessary finance and the strategies involved, to how the project progressed from the start. KEY TAKEAWAYS Choosing the correct area is essential, especially when it comes to commercial development. It's about identifying a need and supplying a commercial solution for that area. One of the defining characteristics that all property developers need to embrace is the ability to adapt to any challenge. A background in residential development is not necessary when it comes to commercial, but it can help. The various strategies involved can be similar, such as buy-to-let. It's always worth working on the installation of essential services from the very beginning of the deal, instead of waiting till near completion. Time scales and estimates can sometimes take much longer than you think.  BEST MOMENTS 'We felt there was a growing market for small office space' 'We've got a passion for it!' 'Regulation is something people fear' 'It's more about having that foundation'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

Mark Winship and his wife, Caroline, discuss their latest venture together - a hotel development - and the many insights and nuggets of wisdom they've accumulated through taking the project from the deal stage to operation. KEY TAKEAWAYS Harnessing the power of a team is essential in getting the best from a deal. Other people have strengths that all add up to a more efficient, powerful force for each deal you make. You always achieve more if you do your due diligence before you embark on a deal. Identifying your target market is the key to maximising the potential of a deal. It's entirely possible to complete a deal without using any of your own money. This is the power of networking, of meeting with investors who are looking for a healthier return than they can get from the high street.  BEST MOMENTS 'We understood from the get-go, what our target market was going to be' 'It's so important to visit - to walk these places and get a feel for them' 'Not a penny of our own money went into the purchase of this property'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

This week, the team present a very special audio version of a Facebook Live Event from 2021, in which Rick Blaney talks to Chris O'Hare about a broad range of property investing-related topics, with questions submitted live from an audience keen to hear the answers. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you're a driven person, then nothing on earth will stop you from achieving your goals. Property investing allows you to create life on your own terms. In property it's wise to have a "why" - a purpose that pushes you on to do better and achieve more. Without a true "why", you can easily lose focus. Consistency is key. Small steps each day, that move you incrementally towards your goals, are what will make or break your property journey. But this requires discipline. Make sure you're not just focussing on a single strategy. Spread your interests and take advantage of different strategies. This will mitigate the risks that may arise when a single strategy faces challenge.  BEST MOMENTS 'Property has totally changed my life' 'You'll find all shapes and sizes when it comes to property investing' 'You have to follow the system, and you will get there' 'It's all about risk mitigation'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

This week, Mark Winship revisits his conversation with Alex and Blair Collie, a father-and-son team who operate Barras Property, with a particular focus on Rent-To-Buy, and how this strategy has taken them to new heights in 2020. Alex and Blair also discuss the many highlights of working as a family unit, and how to combat negativity on social media. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many enter the world of property investment in the hopes of providing some sort of nest egg for the future. Property is one of the surest ways in which to provide this passive income throughout life. Property investment allows us to take control of our own destinies instead of relinquishing that control to someone else. Knowledge and determination are the keys to unlocking this destiny. There are so many different strategies out there to allow us to acquire and monetise property. Many are not aware of these various methods. Education is paramount. Many are turned down for various reason when it comes to mortgages. This leads to a feeling of being trapped. Rent-To-Buy is a way of releasing people from that feeling and allowing them the freedom to become homeowners. BEST MOMENTS 'I never thought I would that this would become an accelerated plan, and that I would become a property investor' 'I understand how to leverage time, other people's money and knowledge and network. Education was absolutely everything' 'They have the pride that this is their home' 'It's amazing how many genuine opportunities there are to help people' VALUABLE RESOURCES Mark Email: mark@propertywealthsystem.co.uk Mark Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-winship-68b34833 Barras Property - https://www.linkedin.com/company/barrasproperty/ Blair Collie LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/blair-collie/ Alex Collie LinkedIn - https://www.linkedin.com/in/alexcollie/ Barras Property Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/barras_property/ Barras Property Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/barrasproperty/ ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.

This week, Caroline Claydon and her husband Nick, take the reins of the podcast to discuss the all-important question of how best to work together as a couple, especially in the high-pressure world of property investing, and how best to ensure that your relationship survives the many challenges you may find along the way. KEY TAKEAWAYS A relationship with your partner is one thing, but a working relationship with your partner is something entirely different. There are things you can't possibly know until you start working together. Each person has their own strengths, and it's wise to allow each other to use those in the working relationship you build. Dialogue is important. Issues that remain buried are bound to cause problems later on. It's far better to give these issues the oxygen they need in order to remove them from contention.  BEST MOMENTS 'You have to navigate not just starting a business together, but also keeping your relationship on track at the same time' 'You have to see what each party brings to the table and play to those strengths' 'It's about growing and developing as you go'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591        Property Wealth System YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/c/PropertyWealthSystem  ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.
