A few weeks ago I was travelling around the country supporting the Brad Sugars “Business is Booming” Tour of which we were national sponsors.

This means that I had to get up early every morning (before 6.30am) which I must admit I found a real shock to my system as I am just not used to it any more. It is just me or is it unnatural to be getting out of bed when it is still dark? [Read more →]

In the current market conditions it is vital that you should only invest in property that makes a positive cash flow. Although we expect property prices to rise in the long term, it is a good time to buy “As if” prices were never going to rise again! This will make sure you focus on only buying good cash flow property.

Thanks to the use of Purchase Lease Options, we can now gain significant cash flow from a property that we do not own or even have a mortgage on. The very best type of property to acquire on a Purchase Lease Option is a property suitable for multi let which the current owner is trying to rent out (usually unsuccessfully) as a single let property.

This is a very profitable strategy that I normally only share with delegates on my 12 month Property Mastermind Programme however I have decided you give you an outline of how you can make this strategy work for you >> [Read more →]

Toward the end of 2007 UK property prices had reached their peak and the two groups of buyers that stimulate the market (first time buyers and property investors) had stopped buying due to the prices being too high. This lack of demand caused UK property prices to fall to the level they are at today. No one really knows if the UK property market has now bottomed out or indeed if there are further price falls to come, but judging by our experience last weekend I believe we are starting to see the green shoot of recovery…..So what was this experience…… [Read more →]

As property investors we need to make sure that we look after our Credit score. Gone are the days when a buy to let mortgage was just dependant on the rental income from the property. With lenders very cautious about whom they lend money to, your personal credit score will be taken into account when you buy investment property. [Read more →]

Are you finding as many deals as you would like? If not, why not? What are your reasons (or excuses) for not achieving what you want?

The reason I ask, is because I want to share with you a post which was put onto my Property Mastermind Forum by one of the home study delegates: [Read more →]

We held a FREE prize draw which closed at 9am on Tuesday. The prize was a place on my next Property Mastermind Programme (PMP) which starts in October.

The lucky winner will not have to wait until October to start buying lots of property as the winner, (and all the other investors who have already reserved their place on the next PMP) will attend my one day BMV Quick Start seminar in August, and the winner will also receive the Brain Transplant Pack (pre course study material) so that he/she can get their first deals even before they start in October.

So thank you to everyone who entered.

The winner is…… [Read more →]

I think the heat has finally got to me! Or at least that’s what the guys in the office said to me yesterday when I told them my idea about giving away a free place on my next Property Mastermind Programme. [Read more →]

Ever since I read the International Best seller “Real Estate Riches” about 6 years ago I have been inspired by Dolf De Roos who is a truely creative property investor.

What I loved about “Real Estate Riches” was the way Dolf De Roos explained the simple concept of looking for the angle in any property deal. Most amateur property investors just see the property and don’t thnk creatively about how the cash flow could be increased. Dolf is a master at this, on both residential and commercial property.
