Ep 165The One Thing That Will Make All The Difference
Simon shares a simple concept, but one that will dramatically increase the success of your property investing business! KEY TAKEAWAYS Most sellers become more motivated over time, so following up is an essential way to make sure that you're always there if the deal turns into something beneficial to you. If someone has gone with another offer (one in three sales fall through in the UK), and then decide to come back to you, the price is once again negotiable, meaning that you could get it for even less than before. Remember that you can provide a much needed and valued service to a landlord, by providing them with a guaranteed income. It's a total win for them! BEST MOMENTS 'No doesn't mean never' 'It's amazing how much people will come back to you' 'We're going to see even more sales fall through' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 164How To Accelerate Your Success
Simon tells you how you can drastically accelerate your success by sharing some of the habits that his most successful mastermind students have put into place to achieve life-changing results in record-breaking time. KEY TAKEAWAYS When you invest in yourself, you become far more investable to other investors. People are far more into the idea of investing in you, if they can see that you care enough about yourself to be better. Look for ways to repurpose the properties you already have in your portfolio, in order to make sure that you're getting the best out of the ones you already have. You don't know what you don't know. Always be open to new learnings, and never discount the advice and guidance you get from those who have walked the path before you. Stack your deals into a pipeline, so that you've always got momentum in your investing journey. Don't stick to one deal at a time, or you may find that momentum interrupted, or even halted. BEST MOMENTS 'These habits are called success accelerators' 'Have an open mind' 'This is all about accelerating your success' 'No doesn't mean no forever!'

Ep 163Are You Just Interested, Or Fully Committed?
With a wealth of opportunities about to happen in the property investing space, Simon asks the pertinent question - are you committed? If so, then you might just be about to accelerate your property investment growth in ways you couldn't possibly imagine. KEY TAKEAWAYS Because of the current interest rate crisis, many property deals aren't stacking up for people. This means that even more sales will fall through and come back to the market. If you're only interested in property, then you may simply sit on the sidelines instead of committing to taking advantage of the deals out there. Make the commitment and find the time in your diary to do the necessary things. Put systems in place and make sure you follow up. BEST MOMENTS 'Now is the time when you should be committed' 'This is going to be one of the best buying opportunities of the decade' 'These are advanced strategies which most investors just don't know about' VALUABLE RESOURCES Come and register your interest in my special Black Friday offer here: http://www.blackfridaysz.co.uk/ Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 162Property Market Update And Prediction
With so much uncertainty in the property market right now, Simon is here to share his personal prediction about what could happen over the next twelve months, as well as the action you should be taking in order to protect and reinforce your property investing business. KEY TAKEAWAYS On the 3rd November, the Bank Of England raised their interest rates, the highest percentage seen since 2008. This means that many homeowners on variable mortgages will cost more money. Less disposable income means that many will be spending less on goods and services. This negatively impacts businesses, who may scale back their operations, leading to a shrinking economy. Mortgage lenders have now increased the stress test they use to determine affordability. This affects rental properties and home buyers. This means many single-let properties no longer stack up as deals. Putting off buying because you want to see if rices will get better, is a little too risky. If you can find a property now and the numbers stack up, don't wait! BEST MOMENTS 'The average person is going to have less money in their pocket' 'More and more properties are coming back to the market. Maybe there might be an oversupply' 'I believe we could see the start of the next property crash' 'This is great news for you, me and anybody who is looking to buy more property' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 160Have High Energy Costs Killed HMOs?
Many believe that the recent upheaval in energy cost prices has killed the HMO strategy, due to the fact that landlords are now losing money by paying higher bills for tenants. But as Simon explains in this week's show, that belief may not be correct... KEY TAKEAWAYS There are different types of tenants in HMOs - students, young professionals, workers and those on benefits. Interestingly, only two of those groups require their bills to be paid. There are differing sizes of HMOs. A "mini-mo" may only house three or four people, are usually in smaller, lower cost properties. If you've done your numbers and your diligence, then you should be making the appropriate amount of profit each month depending on your property size. Even if energy prices do rise, your profits should be more than enough to cover it. Rent increases are acceptable to most these days as costs have to track against the rise in inflation. Tenants realise this and are prepared. BEST MOMENTS 'A standard 5 bed HMO should make at least £1,000 profit per month' 'If you're doing the larger properties, even if the energy costs have doubled it shouldn't make that much difference' 'The increase that we're putting on the rent covers the rise in energy costs' VALUABLE RESOURCES To join some like online training with Simon about HMOs register here: www.HMOcourse.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 159Interest Rate Crisis
Simon discusses the topical interest rate crisis that is affecting the market right now, and the impact that this will have upon your property investing and the property market in general. KEY TAKEAWAYS One of the decisions you have to make when you take out a mortgage is whether to have a variable rate or fixed rate. Most opt for the stability of a fixed rate because it provides certainty. Once we pass through this period of upheaval and uncertainty, the markets should calm down, and interest rates will start to solidify. Waiting might be a good idea. The state of the market has led to shorter term fixed rates being higher than longer term fixed rates. This suggests that banks expect rates to settle down. Many property sales that been agreed are expected to fall through due to interest rate issues. This means plenty of opportunities for investors. BEST MOMENTS 'This is one of the most important podcast episodes I've ever done' 'People who haven't taken action are facing challenges right now' 'Once we get over this period, things are going to settle down' 'There could be an oversupply' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you want to learn more about how to generate high cash flow from HMOs, register for this free online training with Simon - www.hmocourse.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 158Recession Proof Strategies
Simon talks about the property investing strategies that have time and again proven to be recession proof, so that you can ensure your business remains robust, no matter what happens in the financial future. KEY TAKEAWAYS Rising interest rates, high energy costs, and high inflation mean that times ahead are proving uncertain for many. But we must remember that with massive uncertainty also comes huge opportunity. We need to make sure that the properties we acquire and in high demand. Due diligence in your chosen area will show this. There must be a high cash flow for each property. You need to make much more profit than the average property so as to maximise margins. This offsets any rising costs. People always need somewhere to live, and with costs rising, they often downsize their living arrangements. This means that HMOs (houses of multiple occupancy) are a recession-proof strategy, as they will always be in demand, even during tough times. BEST MOMENTS 'Times are going to be very difficult ahead for many people' 'There must he HIGH cash flow' 'We want cost effective strategies for tenants!'

Ep 157Time Sensitive Strategy - Listen NOW
Simon shares an important, valuable strategy that will only work THIS WEEK, so make sure to listen carefully and take action on this time-sensitive strategy as soon as you possibly can in order to maximise the rewards available. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many landlords are pulling out of the property market due to rising legislation, costs and interest rates. This is an increasing trend, but this week there is an enhanced opportunity... There is currently a surplus of student accommodation, and landlords are worried that they might not be able to fill the properties they've obtained in order to house students. When looking for potential properties to purchase from a landlord, look for properties with no lights on. This signifies that the property is unoccupied. A To-Let sign doesn't signify that there is an empty property. Most letting agents like to keep these signs visible to ensure full capacity at all times. BEST MOMENTS 'The longer you leave in taking action, the less effective this strategy is going to be' 'If there are no lights on, write down that property's address' 'You want to take action on this straight away' 'There are different types of tenants' VALUABLE RESOURCES To learn more about how you can quickly acquire property using Purchase Lease Options register for this no cost online training now at: www.PLOtraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 156Pensions And Property
Many people don't think about their pension pots as a hidden asset that can be used for investing purposes, but you can. In this episode, Simon talks about the ways in which you do this safely, and demonstrates what can be possible. KEY TAKEAWAYS A SSAS pension is a Small Self-Administered Scheme, allowing you to take more control of your pension, and get yourself a better return. It is possible to purchase your place of work through your SSAS, and then have your company rent the property through your pension, meaning that all rent paid will be tax free income. You can draw cash from your pension before the age of 55, but certain guidelines need to be followed. This can mean that you can fund your own property deals. BEST MOMENTS 'This can be incredibly powerful for you' 'You can use the money in your pension before the age of 55' 'You have a duty of care as the trustee of your pension' VALUABLE RESOURCES To find out more about how you can set up your SSAS visit: www.PensionInProperty.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 155The Importance of Contribution
Simon talks about the importance of contribution and the value it can bring to you and your property investing business. KEY TAKEAWAYS In order to grow as an individual, we need to feel as though we are contributing in some way. Many do this through charitable donations, or by donating their time. You can help like-minded investors and aspiring property entrepreneurs by speaking at property networking events. Property training opens people's eyes, raises financial awareness, and helps people to achieve financial independence. BEST MOMENTS 'To become a fully actualised individual you have to have a sense of contribution' 'If you want to help the poor, make sure you're not one of them' 'There's nothing wrong with making money' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 154Why You Should Have A Company For Your Property Investing
Simon talks about why it might be wise for you to think about why it might be wise to set up a company through which to operate your property investing business, and the main benefits you can reap by doing so. KEY TAKEAWAYS Historically, buying a property in your own name was beneficial, usually for tax reasons. Plus, many more offers would be open in terms of mortgages. In 2015, Section 24 was introduced, and meant a change in the way that property investors were taxed. This meant that any property owned and mortgaged in your own name, there was more tax to pay on rental income. Expenses can be offset through your business, which reduces the profit, leading to a lower tax outlay for you. Only legitimate expenses can be accounted for, but as many as possible should be funnelled through the company. Expenses can also be backdated, and can be claimed for up to six months later, meaning that purchases made in the outset can be claimed for. You can also lend money personally into the business, and once up and running, that loan can come back to you. BEST MOMENTS 'This was a major blow, and many investors moved their properties into a company' 'The costs have come down, dramatically' 'There are many benefits to using a company to invest' 'Your business pays for it from pre-tax money, instead of post-tax profit' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 153How To 10x Your Deal Sourcing Income
Deal sourcing is an effective strategy that allows you to find great deals and sell them on for fee. In this episode, Simon tells you how you can make sure you're maximising the income you can make as a deal sourcer. KEY TAKEAWAYS Many use deal sourcing as a way of starting their investment journey as it provides experience, helps you build contacts, and provides you with the income you need in order to do the deals yourself. Selling deals on to other investors does require you to be legally compliant. The deals also have to be great deals. It's vital that you not only find a deal to sell on, but add value to it in order to maximise the profits you can make. The better the deal is, the more people will want to buy it from you. This is how you can make sure that you're getting the most for the deal you've packaged. BEST MOMENTS 'You can dramatically increase your income' 'Instead of walking away from deals, you can make great money by passing the deals on' 'All investors should be thinking about selling deals on to other people' 'You make money, they're really happy, and that can be a great part time business making you a significant income' VALUABLE RESOURCES To learn more about how you can use Purchase Options and Purchase Lease Options join Simon for this detailed online training. www.PLOTraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 151Your Million Dollar Racehorse
Simon explains the fascinating concept of "The Million Dollar Racehorse" - the form of care that we should be showing to ourselves in order to help us achieve the most incredible goals in life and business. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you had a racehorse that garnered you huge wins, you would make sure it had the best care, best trainer, best diet. If you are to be a top performer, you must take care of yourself accordingly. You only have one life, and your potential is unlimited. You must realise your own value. It's vital to build our personal belief about what is possible. If we wish to replace income with property investing, then it's absolutely possible, depending on how committed and focussed you are. BEST MOMENTS 'If you had a million dollar racehorse, how would you look after it?' 'You are your own million dollar racehorse' 'We have limiting beliefs about what we can and can't do' VALUABLE RESOURCES To find out more about Property Magic live and how to get your discounted tickets visit: www.PropertyMagicLive.co.uk/podcast Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 150Property Advice For A Younger Me
Across the course of the past 27 years, Simon has seen huge success in property investing, but there have also been a fair share of mistakes, some of them costly. To mark this special milestone episode, Simon talks about the property advice he would have given to his younger self all those years ago, in the hopes that you may avoid these costly errors on your own property journey. KEY TAKEAWAYS Treat your property investing like a business. If you do this, it means you'll make money accordingly. Those who treat it like a hobby never quite achieve the same heights. Cashflow is king. You might have a very profitable business, but if you don't ensure your cashflow, it can devastate your business should the worst happen. Financial freedom comes through the long term holding of property, viewing them as assets for life, instead of get rich quick projects. Have an open mind and always be open to learning from other people. Build your network and take advantage of the knowledge of others.

Ep 149Impact of rising Interest rates
With drastic changes having taken place in the banking world, and interest rates changing due to economic pressures, many investors are wondering what the property investing landscape will look like. In this episode, Simon explains everything. KEY TAKEAWAYS Mortgage rates and interest rates are due to rise sharply. This is why so many experts have advised the securing of remortgages in the past year. If you have a fixed rate mortgage, then typically this will be higher than a variable rate, but with rates due to rise this year, locking in a rate that works for you is a good idea. With landlords' profits being eroded, we will see a rise in properties being sold so as to cash in on capital growth instead. This means more opportunities in the coming months and years. Keeping your knowledge up to speed is essential to taking advantage of the boom that's incoming. Re-educate and up-skill yourself as much as possible BEST MOMENTS 'It's not too late - rates are due to go up further' 'We're trying to factor in a safety level' 'It's all about the perception of what could happen' 'If the market starts to tip, it's going to be a great time to buy property' VALUABLE RESOURCES Claim your heavily discounted tickets to Property Magic Live here: www.PropertyMagicLive.co.uk/podcast Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iPhone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android: https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 148The Property Investor Time Bomb
A property time bomb has been ticking since April 2017, and many investors will be affected when it goes off, and yet if handled correctly, it could provide a huge opportunity for those in the know. In this episode, Simon explains everything... KEY TAKEAWAYS In 2005-2006, many obtained mortgages through self-certification, which essentially meant that no proof of income was required. This was an irresponsible lending time and led to the credit crunch that negatively impacted the global economy. When the market crashed, many found themselves in negative equity, forcing them to face repossession. This also led to greater restrictions in the mortgage market. Many mortgages were based upon the base rate of the Bank Of England, plus a small percentage. This meant that properties that hadn't made cashflow, were suddenly making very positive cash flow. As properties become less profitable, such as when an interest rate rise occurs, you could find yourself in a situation where landlords make less, but pay more tax on the "phantom profit' BEST MOMENTS 'People were buying properties that didn't really stack up' 'This is a situation you can't really get out of' 'April 2017 was when the time bomb really started ticking...' 'Section 24 means that you pay far more tax on your property investment income' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 147Lessons From A Successful USA Investor
Having just returned from the USA, and meeting some of the most successful property investors in the game, Simon is here this week to share some of the most powerful learnings he has acquired. KEY TAKEAWAYS The experience and knowledge you can gain from professionals in the investing field, is incalculable and more valuable than any other type of training. Many of the strategies we use in the UK are also used in the USA, with slight differences. Deal Sourcers are called "wholesalers". Pensions can also be used to invest in property. In the USA, sellers have agents, but so do buyers. Also, mobile homes and trailers make up a huge percentage of the property market. If looking for property on the open market, you compete with everyone else. This is why off-market opportunities are always best.

Ep 146How To Get The Most Out Of Property Training Events
Attending property training events is all very well, but how can you make sure that you're getting everything you can from this empowering opportunities? In this episode, Simon talks about the hacks you can use to make sure you're making the most of the events that you attend. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you do not take notes at events, then you will naturally only absorb about 15-20% of what is being said. Note taking dramatically increases the amount of information you will retain. Always review the content soon after an event in order to evaluate the learnings, and in order to formulate your own action plan. Always try to do something small every day from your action list, then you'll be amazed at how much you can achieve in a single month. If you can pay a little extra to obtain the VIP level of access to an event, then it's always worth doing so. The calibre of people you'll meet and network with will be far more suited to your kind of purpose. BEST MOMENTS 'This is a chance to deepen your level of understanding' 'It's amazing how uncommon common sense is' 'Education isn't enough. It's about implementing what you learn' 'Your net worth is your network. The more people you know, the more successful you will be' VALUABLE RESOURCES To attend the Property Magic Global Event go to www.propertymagiclive.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 145Secrets Of Raising Private Finance
One of the biggest changes faced by most investors is that at some point they run out of their own deposit money, leading them to believe that they. must stop investing. As Simon talks about in this episode, there are several secrets you need to know about raising private finance, in order for your investing journey to continue. KEY TAKEAWAYS When using other people's money, you need to be far more careful with how you use it, and always make sure you keep your promises. Many do not see the benefits for investors when it comes to lending money. But this is a case of changing your mindset. In many instances, you are giving them a far better rate of return. You are helping them. You often have assets that can help you when investing, but you might not realise it. Consider assets such as equity in your own home or other investment properties, retained profits in businesses, or money in pensions that could be released. The best people to work with are people who are known to you already. The trust is already there. All you need to do is let them know what you're doing, and telling them about the benefits. BEST MOMENTS 'Successful investors use other people's money to invest in property' 'You can help THEM make money' 'How much money do you need in order to achieve all of your property goals?'

Ep 144What Does Financial Independence Mean To You?
Simon talks about the definition of financial independence, and discusses what it should mean to you, and why you may be closer to it than you may think. KEY TAKEAWAYS Financial independence is the art of creating an alternative income that means you don't have to work for a living. This means you're not dependant on someone else in order to pay the bills. The first step towards independence is to make a conscious decision that financial independence is what you really want in life. A problem that some have is that they set their monthly income targets a little too high. Start with what you actually need in order to cover your living costs and work up from there. To accelerate your results, you should always invest in yourself. Investing in your development is the most important investment you can make. BEST MOMENTS 'There is no excuse for not becoming financially independent if that is what you want' 'It's very easy to allow distractions in life to get in our way' 'It gives you the choice and freedom so that you can make the decisions you want' 'If you treat your investing like a hobby, then it'll cost you like a hobby' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 143Deal Or No Deal?
Simon talks about how to recognise whether or not you should pull the trigger on certain property deals - how to quickly assess a deal, and why timing matters so much. KEY TAKEAWAYS Taking action is vital at the right moment. If you wait too long then someone else could swoop in and close the deal. Indecision costs money! Never back away from a deal for fear of something that might come along in its place. It's far better to have a deal in hand than hold out for something better that might not materialise. High inflation means that banks are raising interest rates. The money you invest will have a far better rate of return. There's never been a better time to invest with other people's money. You can offer a far better rate of return than traditional routes of storing cash. BEST MOMENTS 'If you find a really good property deal, you need to move quickly' 'Does this property actually make us cashflow?' 'If a better deal does come along, you could find someone else to fund it for you' 'Anybody who has money in the bank is losing money hand over fist' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 142Is The Recession Coming?
Simon talks about the the state of the UK economy, and discusses the question on all property investor's lips right now: Is the country going into a recession, and how will this affect the property market? KEY TAKEAWAYS Interest rate rises are expected to come in the following year. Therefore it may be the ideal time to fix interest rates on your mortgages if possible. Many landlords are looking to sell up as their cashflow is being squeezed. This means there are some fabulous opportunities to snap up deals. Many wish to wait until prices improve or the market gets better. The problem is that sometimes these ideal conditions do not appear and the only result is wasted time. Always buy in an area of strong rental demand. Only buy a property if it will make you cashflow. Only buy for long term growth. BEST MOMENTS 'It feels like the country is talking itself into a recession' 'As rates go up it means cashflow is being squeezed' 'We need to have the right, positive attitude' 'In the long term, property prices will rise' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 141Your Network Is Your Net Worth
The most valuable asset in your property investing toolbox, is your network. In fact, as Simon explains in this episode, your network is your net worth. But what does this mean exactly, and how can you build a network that will dramatically accelerate and dynamically develop your property investing journey? Listen to find out. KEY TAKEAWAYS Although we may have people we see more than others, the fact is that you know far more people than you might think. Your network is dramatically larger than you may realise. Your network is made up of four groups: those we meet through proximity, people we meet through our interests, connections through business, and those we meet through educational means. Connecting with other people on the property journey is vital in terms of inspiration and growth. Investing can be a very lonely pursuit, and connecting with others can keep you focussed and moving forward. Networking is a two way street. Not only does it enrich our journey, it also adds value to the journeys of others. Always follow up, be strategic, and give value. BEST MOMENTS 'You probably know more people than you think' 'Owning property is like owning your very own cash machine' 'Investing in property can be a very lonely journey' 'Your network helps you to enhance your mindset and your belief about what is possible' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 140Are You Thinking Big Enough?
This week, Simon invites you to think bigger! After all, if we are going to do anything in life, why would we not do it to the best of our abilities, and maximise our impact? KEY TAKEAWAYS Mindset is very important. We need to stretch our thinking about the things that we can achieve. We limit ourselves and use excuses in order to justify our limits. Look at what others are doing and be inspired by that. But don't compare yourself too closely as we are on our own property journey. When you think bigger, you grant yourself a better ability to deal with issues when they arise. Challenges are always surmountable. BEST MOMENTS 'Why play small when you could achieve so much more in your investing and life in general?' 'You don't know what you don't know' 'What would you do if you could not fail?'

Ep 139Why You Should Not Do Joint Ventures In Property
In this episode, Simon talks about why you should NOT do joint ventures in property, and how in the long run they can prove way more expensive than you may believe... KEY TAKEAWAYS Joint ventures are where two or more parties come together for mutual benefit. They have a share of risk and a share of rewards. The main issue with joint venturing is that many become settled in this practice, and do not move onto the next step, which is private loans. The money you spend on a property should be far less than the value you create by doing the refurbishments. BEST MOMENTS 'Joint ventures CAN be absolutely fantastic...' 'It's expensive because you're giving away half of your profits' 'This is definitely a question of belief and mindset' VALUABLE RESOURCES To learn more about how you can use other people's money to fund your property deals register for this Creative Finance training here: www.CreativeFinanceTraining.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 138Overcoming Fear
Fear is one of the biggest factors in preventing you from moving forward with your property investing journey. In this episode, Simon talks you through some effective solutions that you can use to combat fear, and reach far higher levels of success. KEY TAKEAWAYS We naturally produce adrenaline in order to fuel our fight-or-flight response. This puts us on edge in risky situations, and can help us to circumnavigate danger. Many people fear the opinions of others. in property, this can lead to investors becoming reluctant to talk to their family and friends about what they do. Most fear is just in our minds and comes from uncertainty. Our imagination often makes things far worse than they are. False Expectations Appearing Real is a useful acronym to explain fear and its effects. We can combat fear with knowledge. BEST MOMENTS 'Fear is a totally natural emotion designed to keep you safe' 'Fear of failure, and also fear of success' 'Most fear is perceived danger instead of actual danger' 'Knowledge can help you overcome fear' VALUABLE RESOURCES To learn more about how to overcome you fear about using other people money register for this online training www.CreativeFinanceTraining.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 137Inflation, Interest Rates, and The Impact On Your Property Investing
Inflation is officially at 7%, and is predicted to grow even higher this year. Interest rates have begun to creep up. But how do these factors affect you and your property investing journey? In this episode, Simon talks about these rising costs, and their impact upon you. KEY TAKEAWAYS Rising costs are currently the order of the day, with everything from fuel, food and even rents rising exponentially, due to supply issues, economical conditions and scarcity. When inflation goes up, the Bank Of England raises interest rates in order to slow down the economy and bring down inflation. If interest rates go up too much, then the government will struggle to make all of their interest payments. This has led to a tricky balancing act. BEST MOMENTS 'The true cost of living has gone up much more than 7%' 'Inflation is not good for most people' 'Increasing interest rates means decreasing your cashflow' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 136Repurposing Property
In this show, Simon talks about the ways in which you can repurpose property to suit your chosen strategy - methods that don't always require as much in the way of conversion and refurbishment as you may think... KEY TAKEAWAYS Commercial property is valued upon the rental income it brings in. This means that if it's empty, or difficult to populate, then it will have a lower value. Buying an existing building for less than the cost of building a whole new one, puts you instantly ahead of the game. Rising inflation costs means that money being kept in the bank is not working for you efficiently. It's far better to invest in something like property, where the returns are far greater. BEST MOMENTS 'There are far easier ways to repurpose property where you don't have to do a huge amount of refurbishment' 'There are people with money in the bank doing nothing for them' 'it's what we call a Lend-And-Learn opportunity' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 135Should You Invest In Houses Or Apartments?
In this episode, Simon talks you through one of the most commonly-asked questions in property investing - should you invest in houses or apartments? KEY TAKEAWAYS The type of residences in which you invest will largely depend on where you choose to invest. For example, apartments are far more ubiquitous in London. Outside of built up areas, houses are far more common. Younger tenants tend to want apartments, as they are generally cheaper than entire houses, and are usually located near hubs of activity. Maintenance for apartments is generally very low. Initial bills might present themselves, but in general, keeping an apartment maintained is far cheaper than a house. BEST MOMENTS 'Your strategy can also affect the type of property you need' 'Long term capital growth is generally better in houses than it is in apartments' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi Find out about the Global PIN Meetings at www.globalpinmeeting.com To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 134How To Benefit From The Global PIN Meetings
Simon discusses the exciting new ways in which he is taking the Property Magic PIN meetings to a global audience, how you can become involved, and how you can benefit the most from such an exciting and invaluable innovation. KEY TAKEAWAYS In property, it really is a case of "It's not what you know, but who you know" when it comes to finding success. No one can ever know everything when it comes to property investing. Therefore, by having the finest network possible, we can always find the answers we need when it counts the most. You need to find people who are like-minded and equally as committed as you, in order to broaden your knowledge base effectively.

Ep 133The Power Of Gratitude In Your Property Investing
In this episode, Simon shares a powerful yet simple tool - the power of gratitude - that will undoubtedly make you more successful on your investing journey. KEY TAKEAWAYS Mindset is responsible for around 80% of either your success or your failure. Without the correct mindset we cannot hope to achieve success.

Ep 132Time To Take Action
In this episode, Simon hopes to inspire you take more action. In order to be a successful property investor, planning and consideration are essential, but they are nothing unless we execute on our ambitions and take the necessary action! KEY TAKEAWAYS Educating yourself not only saves you money in the long run, but also saves you time, stress, and the necessity to correct costly mistakes. Investing begins by motivating and inspiring ourselves, but also focussing on what we wish to achieve. If we don't have a grip on this, then we can't hope to move in the right direction. It's far better to start taking action with the information and knowledge you have, than trying in vain to gain a breadth of knowledge about every single issue you may face. Treat your property investing as a business and recognise that sometimes you need to make investments, but that those investments will pay off. BEST MOMENTS 'It all starts with you taking action' 'There does come a point where you need to stop educating yourself and start taking action' 'Smart people know that asking for help is a really wise thing to do' 'It's doing the right things consistently that gets you results' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 131The 6 Creative Finance Business Models
Simon shares details of the six creative finance business models that can act as accelerators when it comes to your chosen property investment strategies. KEY TAKEAWAYS Rent to rent involves your taking a property's responsibility from its owner, guarantee them a rental income each month, and rent out to a tenant at a profit. Investing in a Purchase Lease Option property is wise, and adding value to the property increases its value, making a future purchase at the agreed price far more worthwhile. Vendor finance involves you purchasing a property with the help of the owner, who helps to fund some of the purchase price. This works particularly well when you're buying at purchase price and want a quick sale. BEST MOMENTS 'This works very well when we are adding value to a property' 'With a purchase option we have the right to buy but not the obligation' 'I love vendor finance - it's very creative' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you want to learn more about how you can find great property deals in your area, you can join Simon for some online training about this at www.DealFinderTraining.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 130The 16 Core Property Investing Strategies
For the very first time on the show, Simon talks about the sixteen core property investing strategies - everything from residential buy-to-let methods and the BRRRR system, to flips and houses of multiple occupancy (HMO). KEY TAKEAWAYS The key difference between commercial and residential property is that the tenant in the commercial property is responsible for insurance and maintenance. BRRRR stands for Buy, Refurbish, Refinance, Rent and Repeat. This is where a property is acquired for a reasonable sum, value is added through refurbishment, and then sold on at a profit. Freehold to Leasehold title split, involves finding a freehold property where someone else has done the conversion work to turn the property into individual apartments, keeping it on one title. Most HMOs are very plain. The best way to succeed in the space is to make sure your HMO projects are of a much better quality. BEST MOMENTS 'There are hundreds of ways you can make money from property' 'This truly is property magic - making money from thin air' 'The key, really, is finding a good tenant' 'This is why you need to understand these strategies, so that when you spot an opportunity you can make money from it' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you want to learn more about how you can find great property deals in your area, you can join Simon for some online training about this at www.DealFinderTraining.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 129How To Successfully Work With Property Sourcers
Deal sourcers can be an invaluable way of finding deals that may otherwise pass you by, but as Simon explains in this week's show, in order to get the most out of their services, you must know how to work with them effectively. KEY TAKEAWAYS As a property investor, the most important skill you can develop is the finding of great deals for yourself. Therefore the biggest block between you and success is not being able to find them in the first place. You don't need to personally find deals if you don't want to. Deal sourcers find great deals and perform all due diligence, then package the deal and sell it on. Many sourcers actually don't know what they are doing. Anyone can set themselves up as a sourcer, and haven't yet gained the true experience necessary, so be careful about the sourcers you use! Always ask a sourcer how long they've been doing it, and also enquire as to the education and training they have received. BEST MOMENTS 'If you can learn just one thing, that would absolutely be it' 'Even if you buy a deal from someone else, you still need to know how to stack the deal yourself' 'If you have great deals then there are always people who can fund them for you' 'There's nothing wrong with paying sourcers' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you want to learn more about how you can find great property deals in your area, you can join Simon for some online training about this at www.DealFinderTraining.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 128How To Value A Property
Valuing a property effectively is one of the most fundamental ways of ensuring that your investment portfolio can make a profit. After all, if we over pay, then the returns may be diminished. In this episode, Simon talks you through the most effective ways in which you can accurately judge the value of a potential property purchase, so as to always maximise your returns. KEY TAKEAWAYS The most reliable way of valuing a property is through like comparison - the comparing of similar properties to the one in question. Other factors such as the current condition of the property will affect value price. Also, think about the property's location, and the immediate surroundings, which all play a part in determining price. Estate agent valuations are traditionally the first type of valuation that take place. But bear in mind that most agents will overvalue a property in order to win your business. Whenever you buy a property and apply for a mortgage, the bank will instruct a surveyor to value and potential rental income. Before this takes place you may obtain a private survey in order to confirm your own valuation. BEST MOMENTS 'Valuing a property is definitely more of an art than a science' 'Property is worth what someone is willing to pay for it' 'Estate agent value is a good starting point' 'Just because something is listed for sale, doesn't mean it will sell at that price' VALUABLE RESOURCES Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 127The Success Habits Of Successful Investors
This week, Simon discusses the habits that all successful investors have in common, and how by adopting them for yourself, you can steer your own investing journey towards a more success KEY TAKEAWAYS Successful people have habits, routines and rituals that turn normal investors into successful ones. By embracing these rituals, you can accelerate your growth. Be very clear on what you want to achieve and why you want to achieve it. Without this you may lose motivation. Refine the searches you make when you are looking for deals. By boiling your queries down to the essentials, you are far more likely to find great deals. Always follow up on an enquiry. Circumstances change quickly. If we follow up then we can discover that deals have a way of opening up to us once more.

Ep 126Do You Need To Set Up A Business For Your Property Investing?
Simon talks about whether or not you should be thinking about setting up a business for your property investing, and the pros and cons involved in doing so. KEY TAKEAWAYS In April 2017, the government introduced as a new tax legislation known as Section 24. This affects people who own properties in their own name, and taxes the income from property in a different way, generally working out to be more expensive. An investment business is where you buy properties to hold for the long term, the profits of which come from rental income. A trading business is where properties are bought, refurbished and sold on. They rely on short term gains and profits come from each transaction. One of the main benefits of having a company is that all your expenses can be put through the company itself, including phone costs, car costs and training costs.

Ep 125A Little Bit Of Knowledge Can Be Dangerous
Simon discusses the concept of how "a little bit of knowledge can be very dangerous", and how those in property investing, who possess merely a fraction of the knowledge required in order to succeed, can often limit their development by not investing in themselves, and in the guidance of experts. KEY TAKEAWAYS Factors such as equipment designed to meet regulations, are not always compatible with the requirement of these regulations. Broadening your knowledge can safeguard you from making costly mistakes. Whenever you undertake any adjustments to your property, always seek the advice of those who know what they're talking about. Never assume you know best. No one can ever know everything about property, and there's no reason why you should. Many areas are unimportant for much of the time, but when they do suddenly become important, always seek the guidance of those who know better. BEST MOMENTS 'Sometimes people go out there with all the best will in mind' 'It comes down to making sure you have a power team around you' 'You're never going to know everything about property' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about HMOs you can register for some free training here: www.HMOcourse.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 124Are You Looking After Your Tenants?
Tenants are the lifeblood of your property business, but are we taking care of them effectively? In this episode, Simon talks about the value in making sure they're kept at the heart of your property venture, and how a few small steps can ensure that they become a valuable tool in helping you to grow. KEY TAKEAWAYS If you look after your tenants, then not only are they more likely to stay where they are, which can lead to a great reduction in the dreaded void periods between tenants. Many landlords view tenants as a thorn in their side, but this perspective is ill-judged. If we view them this way, then we'll treat them this way. Managing a few properties yourself is very easy, but as you begin to grow, this becomes unmanageable. The more time you spend in managing tenants, the less time you have to acquire new property. Always have good communication with your tenants, especially when it comes to maintenance. Communication is the best way to engender trust. BEST MOMENTS 'Ultimately, you're going to make more money' 'I'd fallen into the landlord trap!' 'Property investing is a vehicle to do what you want to do' 'Your tenants are your customers' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here http://www.PLOTraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 123High Cash Flow From MEGA Deals - Part 3
In the last of a three part series dedicated to Mega Deals, Simon continues his discussion on Mega Deals, and tells you how they can be achieved through providing a return on someone else's financial outlay. KEY TAKEAWAYS Most people don't even bother to look for higher-value properties because they do not believe they can be bought. But we can use other people's money! With Mega Deals, the extra rooms you have mean that you generate a far greater rate of profit, meaning more cash flow and a very good return on investment. You don't always have to stick to your local area when it comes to investment. All you need is a great power team - one that can take over the management of the property, and you can easily invest remotely. BEST MOMENTS 'That's enough to replace most people's income in just one deal' 'If it's a big enough deal, then it doesn't have to be your money' 'If you have a good power team, you can absolutely invest remotely' VALUABLE RESOURCES To access Simon’s free HMO training materials go to www.HMOCourse.co.uk Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 122High Cash Flow From MEGA Deals - Part 2
In the second of a three part series dedicated to Mega Deals, Simon continues his discussion on Mega Deals, and tells you how you can achieve them with properties you don't even own. KEY TAKEAWAYS Most investors are looking for smaller deals, as they believe they have to use their own money. This means that the competition for these deals is greatly reduced. Look to rent a property from an owner, with the money that you pay for this rent being lower than you can rent the property for. This way, you can generate a profit immediately from your tenants. Purchase Lease Options provide a far better return for property owners, as they continue to receive an income during the lease, plus fix the purchase price they want. The first step in securing any deal is to always best understand what the seller is hoping to achieve. BEST MOMENTS 'Purchase Lease Options work particularly well with Mega Deals' 'With a PLO, we can continue to give them a monthly income' 'I can give me the price I want if you give me the terms I want' 'It's really important that we don't become fixated by a particular strategy' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here http://www.PLOTraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 121High Cash Flow From MEGA Deals - Part 1
In the first of a three part series dedicated to Mega Deals, Simon talks about what a Mega Deal is, why you should be doing them as often as possible, and how you can do them on property you don't even own. KEY TAKEAWAYS A Mega Deal is a larger property, usually containing ten or more rooms, and which can be rented out by you. Because of the high number of rooms, a high profit can be made (between £3,000 to £5,000 per month) You don't need to do many Mega Deals in order to hit your target of replacing your income and making your living solely from property. A single Mega Deal can get you to that target. Mega Deals can be funded using other people's money. Many people shy away from these bigger deals, because they do not realise that they don't have to find the money from their own resources. For properties worth between £500,000 and £2,000,000, the competition in the field falls rather rapidly. This is the sweet spot as larger developers are usually looking at properties worth more, and other landlords and residential buyers are usually on the hunt for cheaper. BEST MOMENTS 'That's why we call these things a "life-changing deal"' 'You might only need one Mega Deal to replace your income' 'It's a far better use of your time' 'The whole point about Mega Deals is to give you massive monthly cashflow' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here http://www.PLOTraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 120How To Build Your Relationship Capital
Simon explains the concept of relationship capital, and talks about not only why it's so important to your investing journey, but how you can make sure you are constantly building it. KEY TAKEAWAYS Property investing is all about building relationships - from sellers and agents, to your power team and your buyers and renters. Relationship capital is all about people coming to know you, coming to trust you, coming to like you, and eager to do things to help you. Always look for ways to connect with people, and look for the "givers gain" - the ways in which you can help and value to someone else without reward. This will establish you as a good person and make people want to work with you. Consider the people you know, and think about reaching out to them. You never know how some people's circumstances have changed, and how you may be able to mutually benefit each other. BEST MOMENTS 'Property is a people business' 'The stronger your relationships, the more successful you will be in life' 'Your network is your net worth' 'Reach out and reconnect' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here http://www.PLOTraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 119How To Gain A Competitive Advantage In Your Local Market
In this episode, Simon shares the ways in which you can gain a competitive advantage in your local property market, how your mind-set can impact the way you think about the constantly shifting trends in property, and how it can often be used to your benefit. KEY TAKEAWAYS Whether the market itself is coming down or going up, advantages can be had by wise investors, who can see the potential benefits of both scenarios. Your jumping off point with property is always a matter of mind-set. By crystallising the way you see the market, you will be able to alter your approach accordingly. Be very clear about what you want and why you want it. You need to fully commit to your success as no one else will seek it out on your behalf. Most investors want to buy below market value. In a booming market that is quite difficult. In a market that isn't so strong, these deals are far more available, meaning that a declining market is actually a good thing BEST MOMENTS 'As long as you're holding long term, it doesn't really matter if you buy a property now' 'Your mindset and your beliefs about what is happening will affect the actions you take' 'There are people doing creative strategies!' 'Success leaves clues' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here http://www.PLOTraining.com Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 Register at Mindset For Property at - www.mindsetforproperty.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 118How To Make The Most Of 2022
It's the new year, and with the challenges of 2021 behind us, it's time to look forward to the opportunities of 2022. Simon talks about the ways in which you can make the most of the year ahead, and accelerate your property investing journey from the get go! KEY TAKEAWAYS Work out what you want to achieve in 2022. Be very clear and very specific. You can't take a journey if you don't have a destination. Think about why you want a particular goal. What will it do for you and your family? Each goal needs a reason to be. Make a decision and commit to it. Treat investing like a business instead of a hobby. If you commit and put the work in, the rewards will be much greater. Stop allowing excuses to steal you dreams. There are no valid reasons for you not being able to achieve success in life. BEST MOMENTS 'It's incredibly simple but it absolutely works' 'If you don't know where you want to go, how on earth will you get there?' 'What would you do if you could not fail?'

Ep 117How To Offer More For Properties That Actually Cost You Less
In the second part of Simon's discussion, the focus switches to the ways in which you can offer more for a property as a buyer, while still paying less in the long run, thereby allowing you to close deals and provide a win-win situation for all concerned. KEY TAKEAWAYS Being able to offer more than your competitors gives you a massive advantage when it comes to closing deals and bolstering your portfolio. A purchase lease option allows you to use the money being generated by the property itself, in order to purchase the property from the seller. A purchase lease option will not work upon people simply selling the property in order to free up the cash for other purposes. We must target those who simply do not want the property any more and who plan to put the money away in the bank. Instead of trying to buy properties at a discount, we can instead give the seller the full asking price in exchange for our terms - mainly consisting of being flexible when it comes to receiving capital. BEST MOMENTS 'You can offer more than the competition so that the seller wants to sell to you!' 'By structuring the purchase in a certain way, it actually doesn't affect the money in your pocket' 'These people might be open to creative financial strategies' 'A PLO is a powerful yet misunderstood strategy' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here: http://www.plotraining.com/ Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.

Ep 116How To Sell A Property For More Than It's Worth
For anyone who has property you wish to sell, then Simon is here to tell you how to maximise the price that you can get. But also, if you're buying a property, this week's show will help you to better understand sellers and how to close those deals with no extra cost. KEY TAKEAWAYS There are two fundamental groups of people when it comes to selling property - those who are selling because they need the money for something else, and those who simply don't want the property any more. At the moment, those putting money in the bank is actually losing money as inflation is higher than the interest rates being offered. Purchase options are very powerful as a strategy but hugely misunderstood. They can be used when buying and selling a property. It's also how you can achieve a higher price than usual. The two groups of people you should target in order to see property for more than it's worth are tenant buyers and property investors. BEST MOMENTS 'This gives you a massive competitive advantage' 'These people might be open to a more creative financial strategy' 'We all want to get as much as we possibly can when we sell something' VALUABLE RESOURCES If you would like to learn more about how you can profit using Purchase Lease Options then you can access the brand new online training by Simon Zutshi at no cost here: http://www.plotraining.com/ Property Magic: How to Buy Property Using Other People's Time, Money and Experience by Simon Zutshi To find your local pin meeting visit: www.PinMeeting.co.uk and use voucher code PODCAST to attend you first meeting as Simon's guest (instead of paying the normal £20). iphone: http://bit.ly/pinAPP1 Android https://bit.ly/pinAPP2 ABOUT THE HOST Simon Zutshi, experienced investor, successful entrepreneur and best-selling author, is widely recognised as one of the top wealth creation strategists in the UK.
