Is commercial property the hidden engine room for smart investors?

In this week’s episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin continues his deep dive with commercial property specialist Simon Borham to uncover the secrets, strategies and risks that every aspiring investor needs to understand.

Following on from Part 1, where Simon shared why specialisation wins in property and in life, this conversation zeroes in on the opaque world of commercial property — where opportunities are real but far from obvious. Together, Bushy and Simon unpack:


Why commercial property is intentionally opaque, and how investors can use this to their advantage


The critical role of project management skills in property success


The art and process of negotiation that separates good deals from great ones


How rent drives value — and the hidden equity that can be unlocked through smart management


The rules of selection for beginners, including what to look for (and avoid) when stepping into commercial

Simon also explains why timing, due diligence, and price discipline are non-negotiables for investors who want to avoid costly mistakes and build sustainable wealth.

If you’ve been wondering whether commercial property is right for you — and how to secure a high-performing asset in this misunderstood space — this episode is packed with the insights you need.
