The Latest in Commercial Property Finance with Graeme Shevas

"I'm new to Commercial Property, how do I get started?" 🤔

It's the million-dollar question we get asked time and time again. This week, Megan and I are tackling it head-on, and spoiler alert: there's no one-size-fits-all answer!

Here's what we're unpacking in this episode:
Why your starting point depends on YOU (sorry, no magic formula here!)
The importance of defining your long-term goals (where do you see yourself in 5, 10, 20 years?)
Money talks: How your available capital shapes your options
Active vs. Passive: Choosing your level of involvement

We're breaking down some popular routes for newbies:
Single let units 🏠
Value-add strategies
The CMO approach: For those who like to roll up their sleeves.

Remember, it's easy to get distracted when you see what others are doing. But the key is figuring out what YOU want, taking that first step, and building your confidence and credibility in the market.

A Commercial Property Confab: Getting Started Your Way

Ever had one of those projects where everything that could go wrong, does go wrong?

Well, buckle up, because we're diving into the world of commercial property heating mishaps, and let me tell you, we've had quite the learning curve over the past two decades! 

In this episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on some recent challenges we've faced with our own property portfolio. Today's star of the show? A heating system that's quite literally been giving us the cold shoulder 🥶

Here's a sneak peek of what we're covering:
The saga of two boiler rooms and ten gradually failing boiler heads
Balancing professional advice with hands-on problem-solving
A creative solution involving a local blacksmith
The ongoing search for reliable heating expertise 🤷
What happened when we thought we'd found "the one".

But it's not all doom and gloom! We're also sharing some hard-earned wisdom:
Why scheduling plumbing work on Fridays is a risky move
The importance of always putting customers first
And the fine art of sniffing out BS 💩 in the world of commercial heating.

Whether you're knee-deep in commercial property or just dipping your toes in, this episode offers both laughs and lessons. So remember, when life gives you lemons, make lemonade. And when your heating system fails? Well, that's what podcast material is made of🎙️.
