Property Magic Podcast

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!'

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. BEST MOMENTS 'Too many people treat property investing like a hobby' 'Property development is amazing at the right stage of your property journey' 'True wealth is created from long term capital growth' 'You don't know what you don't know' 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.

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.

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.

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. BEST MOMENTS 'If you want to gain specialist knowledge, the best way is to find someone who knows what they're doing' 'I'm continually investing in myself' 'If you go off market, then you have exclusive access to that seller' 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.

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.

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?' 'You can choose how you spend your time' VALUABLE RESOURCES To take the hidden assets test go to www.hiddenassetstest.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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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. Ultimately, we grow into the person that we believe ourselves to be. We become what we think about. If we practice positivity then we energise and accelerate growth. By focussing on gratitude, we elevate ourselves from a place of negativity and into a place of growth and empowerment. BEST MOMENTS 'This will have a big impact on your mindset' 'You become what you think about' 'A is for attitude. B is for belief.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!'

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?'

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.

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.

If you run out of money, then there's not always a need to stop investing. As Simon explains in this week's show, you can use other people's money in order to take advantage of the best property deals. It's just a case of knowing where to find them, and as Simon explains, they might be closer than you think. KEY TAKEAWAYS Always make sure that everyone know what you do as a property investor, with a focus on informing everyone that you help investors to get a great return on their money. In order to the do the very best property deals, always look for motivated sellers. They're far more motivated, and can often be in more of a rush to get rid of the property. The person that can lend you money in order to refurbish or add value to a property, might be the property owner themselves. This loan can be factored into the amount you pay them for the deal. This is known as vendor finance. The more people you tell, the more likely you are to gain access to deals. We can give a far better return on investments than many traditional means. BEST MOMENTS 'If you use other people's money then there's no limit to the number of deals that you can do' 'The person who could lend you money to do your property deals might actually be the seller of the property' 'Many property investors see what they do as a dirty secret' 'If you don't tell people wha you do then how on earth are they going to be able to help you?'

In this week's show, Simon talks about a concept called "Add Value Before Purchase", and explains how it can not only save you money when it comes to buying a property, but also ensure that you get a better return on your investment. KEY TAKEAWAYS Adding value before you buy a property is done through identifying an opportunity and securing it with a purchase option. Cash-only deals signify that the property may be un-mortgageable for various reasons. This generally means that the property will be available at a discount, and is perfect for the 'Add Value Before Purchase' principle. Fixing a problem with a cash-only property allows you to then secure a mortgage on it, but at the new value, which will be higher. Most traditional mortgage lenders will not lend based on value, but on the purchase price, which may be lower. Look for specialist lenders who will look at the value of the property, rather than the purchase price. BEST MOMENTS 'You buy it based on the higher value rather than the purchase price' 'You can find and secure these deals below market value' 'You are forcing the appreciation of the property!' 'I want to give you a slight twist that will make it even more profitable for you' VALUABLE RESOURCES Access the Purchase Lease Option Training by going to: 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.

In this episode, Simon shares the ways in which you can secure your next property deal in just four weeks - a crucial set of strategies for anyone looking to snap up the best deals in the shortest possible amount of time. KEY TAKEAWAYS December is the time of year when many slow down and look to spend time with family and friends. But while most are relaxing, it's a great time for you to accelerate. Estate agents are due to be less busy, so it's a great time to build relationships. Sellers also need to get their properties moving, and so enquiries will be reduced, meaning they'll be highly motivated. January is a boom town when it comes to finding tenants. Many reserve the month for a fresh start and lots of people are looking for rented accommodation. You can let agents know that you're credible by showing them proof of funds, obtain a decision in principle (DIP), or give them your solicitor's business card, which proves serious intent. BEST MOMENTS 'This is a great time to be securing your deal' 'Wouldn't it be great if you could get a deal agreed before Christmas?' 'Start to build those connections' 'Be honest and upfront' 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.

When it comes to your property investing goals, it's always wise to formulate your own magic number. In this episode, Simon explains the concept and tells you how you too can arrive at your own magic number, as well as the different levels of financial freedom you should aim for. KEY TAKEAWAYS Your magic number should comprise the passive income amount you need to make each month in order to replace the money you currently earn. There are three levels of financial freedom: Financial independence - you have enough coming in to replace what you currently earn. Financial freedom - having enough to enjoy a better life. Total financial abundance - you have more money than you know what do with, and are saving money regularly. There is a vast difference in the amount you need to replace and amount you want to ultimately earn. If you aim too high at the beginning, then the journey can seem insurmountable. Working out your magic number gives you clarity and direction. Subsequent work with a coach or partner can then get you there. BEST MOMENTS 'it's a truly magical place to be' 'This is what the first goal should be for most investors' 'I'm really passionate about making my students financially independent' 'Make your first goal something you know you can achieve' 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.

Property investing can be a very lonely journey, which is why we often find ourselves in need of support. In this week's show, Simon talks about why it's crucial for you to gain the support of your partner when you begin your investing journey, and the ways in which we can do so. KEY TAKEAWAYS Share your vision with your partner. Explain why you are investing in the first place, and tell them what you are trying to achieve. Short term sacrifices now could provide long term benefit for you and your family for the rest of your lives. The benefits will also positively impact future generations Do all you can to build the belief that your family might need in order to fortify their support for you. You can do this by looking at case studies together. Ensure that you are changing your family's minds about the potential of property, through education. We need to change their mind-set from a homeowner mind-set to an investor mind-set. BEST MOMENTS 'Often I meet people who really want to start investing, but they just don't have the support' 'You're not just doing this for you, but also for the benefit of your loved ones' 'Share with them what's in it for them' 'What will your property investing mean for you, and for your loved ones?'

Simon shares a powerful concept, SOI (Speed Of Implementation) - a concept that will make you a far more successful investor if you fully embrace it. KEY TAKEAWAYS When you learn something, you should implement it immediately. This is the concept behind SOI. Many get distracted and fail to take the necessary action. Unsuccessful people fail to commit and spend far too long making decisions. When they do commit, they often change their minds. In property you need to be decisive. Deals and opportunities are often lost because decisive action is not taken swiftly enough. With knowledge comes certainty, but certainty only matters if you have the will to act on it. When you have an idea, act upon it immediately. Count down from 5 to 1 and then act. This prepares you mentally, and acts as a barrier against negative doubts and thoughts that may put us off. BEST MOMENTS 'If you use this it will make you more successful in life' 'The success you achieve is directly associated with the action you take' 'By gaining specialist knowledge you'll get certainty' 'That could've been you or me, but we didn't take action!'
