Carole Neales joins Kev in this episode to talk about the 57 projects she has completed, which has resulted in over 246 units and all in just 6 years! Carole attended progressive property events in 2015 and shares how this helped her build her knowledge and talks in depth about her unique property portfolio in social housing.

KEY TAKEAWAYS 
Carole works with charities and supports many people through her property portfolio as the units she manages are social housing.
Working in the hotel business as well as events means that Carole had always worked in customer-facing roles, she likes people and her favourite thing is talking!
After seeing vulnerable children and having empathy for those struggling financially, Carole wanted to do something she could help society whilst also making good investments.
Most landlords aren’t bad people, they want to help people.
Bad tenants come from all walks of life. Carole doesn’t believe she has had any more issues with damage and rent arrears with her social tenants than private landlords would get.

BEST MOMENTS  

‘Everything we do whether it’s needed or not we make sure is HMO compliant as there’s always going to be more than 2 people in the property’

‘Some of us are quick to judge people that have fallen on hard time’

‘Landlords are really great’

‘Because I work with them so closely, I get preferential rate’

How I Built My Property Portfolio From ZERO to Over 246 Units with Carole Neales

Join the conversation with Emerald Fisk, a former personal trainer turned successful property investor who shares her inspiring journey in this episode. Discover how Emerald went from having no money and support to building a thriving property portfolio through networking, education, and the right mindset. Learn about the challenges she faced, the opportunities she found, and the lessons she learned along the way. Emerald also shares valuable insights on the current property market, creative financing strategies, and the importance of investing in your local area.

KEY TAKEAWAYS 
Networking, education, and the right mindset are crucial for success in property investing, even with no prior experience or funds.
Joint venture partnerships can be a powerful way to leverage other people's resources and expertise to get started in property.
Embracing challenges, stepping out of your comfort zone, and believing in yourself are key to overcoming obstacles and achieving your goals.
The current property market presents massive opportunities for educated investors, while tired and uneducated landlords are selling up.
Investing in your local area can be more advantageous than chasing cheap deals in unfamiliar locations.
Creative financing strategies, such as no money down investing, can help you build a portfolio without using your own funds.
Surrounding yourself with like-minded people and learning from their experiences can help you develop a more open and growth-oriented mindset.

BEST MOMENTS  

"If I can do it, anybody can do it. You always need the right network around you, the right mindset and the right education. That's the three things that you need." 

"It's very hard to network when you don't have a conversation." 

"I see the educated people taking advantage of everything that's going on at the moment, and I see the uneducated people wanting to leave the property market." 

"If you're in the more expensive areas, that's great. Find people that want to work with you in those areas." 

"If you've got a closed mindset, the only way you can change that is go and spend time with other people with a more open mindset."

Perseverance and Necessity Kick Started my Property Journey - A Conversation with Emerald Fisk

Wendy Brumwell, a successful commercial conversion property investor joins Kev in this episode. Wendy talks about the strategies she has used in the past 11 years of her property investing journey and shares the lessons she has learnt along the way.

KEY TAKEAWAYS 
For ten years Wendy knew what she wanted to do in property but she thought she had to have the cash to do it. She immediately realised this wasn’t the case when she attended her first property investing course.
Permitted development ‘PD’ is planning that is already set at a government level. This means as long as you meet all of the criteria outlined then you already have agreed planning permission.
Wendy takes time every morning to do something for her whether such as reading or exercise. She does this to set up her day.
Wendy learnt so many lessons from her self-build project that she now wants to do it all over again!
Anybody can do property, including commercial conversions. They just need the right education. 

BEST MOMENTS  

"You spent ten years saving it all up, I spent ten years messing it all up”

“Sometimes being an entrepreneur, if you enjoy what you do it doesn’t feel like work”

“I learnt so much from it that I would do it again and do all those things differently”

"You can start with smaller projects and work your way up"

Turning Properties into Profits: A Conversation with Wendy Brumwell, Commercial Conversion Entrepreneur

Kev is joined by Justine in this episode. Justine shares why she chose to start running progressive property networking events and all about her property investing journey. Justine also talks about why mindset is paramount in building your own property business. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS 
Justine has over 30 years of experience in property investing. She stresses the importance of diversifying and being adaptable to remain agile and profitable in the property space.
Mistakes were part of Justine’s early journey, she recognises that these could have been avoided if she had focused on property education before getting started.
Learning in person and from others has a far higher implementation and success rate than simple reading books.
You have to have a forever-pupil mindset in property investing and all business ventures, there is always something you can learn.
Justine’s strategy is focused on building her lifestyle, so HMOs for example wouldn’t be a workable strategy for her.
Hosting a PPN event helps Justine remain accountable
Anyone can build a property business, they just need the right mindset and the dedication to learn. 

BEST MOMENTS  

"Good luck to you if you want to do it on your own but you’re only going to get so far”

“Everybody has their own strategy that works for them, mine is about lifestyle” 

“It feels more like a community”

"It's about having the right mindset, anybody can do it you just have to have the belief"
