Global July 2025 Meeting 

This has been designed especially for International Investors who reside overseas and are looking to actively invest in the UK Property Market.
Networking and Education is key to becoming a successful property investor and gaining those important connections that you need to move forward in your property investing journey.

The Global pin Meeting is a online networking event that will help you take the steps to invest in the UK. We meet on Zoom 1st Wednesday of each month (excluding August and December).

Your host for the Global pin Meeting will be Andy Haynes, who is Simon Zutshi's Lead Trainer and a very experienced Property Investor.

You will hear inspirational case studies from overseas investors about how they successfully invested in the UK and you will also learn from industry leading UK Property Experts.

This month's speakers are: 

A "Monopoly" deal - without the bank! - Dan Norman

The "Monopoly deal”, like the game, involves the acquisition of a Multi-Unit Freehold Block. It was run down and a poorly performing investment, with massive potential, which was very nearly missed out on TWICE, but actually had a superb bonus, to be revealed during Dan's presentation. All achieved, without the Bank!

Dan has 26 years experience as a Landlord, Investor and Business owner in both property and licensed trade. He's owned and completed 86 refurbishment projects between £100k and £1.6M in GDV, spanning BTL & residential , HMO, Multi Unit Freehold and commercial refurbishment, along with utilisation of cash, bridged, PLO and EDC purchase strategies.

Having extracted from the late night licensed trade in 2021, he is now Director and owner of   

•    Rover Homes Ltd, providing Family and pet friendly homes in SW Birmingham and 
•    New Leaf Living Ltd - having provided over 300,000 bed nights of supported accommodation since 2013.

Dan is an active member of Simon Zutshi's Property MasterMind Community from MasterMind13 (2013) and 5 years previously as Birmingham Central pin host and was the Winner of West Midlands "Property Investor of the Year" 2023.

During his presentation you will learn:

  • How your next deal can be closer than you think
  • How mindset can (almost) kill a life-changing opportunity!
  • The benefits and challenges of larger projects
  • How to finance, without the Bank
  • How persistence is the precursor to success

AND... Overseas Investor Case Study - Peter Young

Peter Young was a top performer from Simon Zutshi's Property Mastermind Programme in 2022 and a seasoned expat, having spent 12 years living across the Middle East and Australia, and now working in The Netherlands. With a £3 million property portfolio comprising HMOs and buy-to-lets, Peter combines the precision of a master’s-qualified engineer with the strategic vision of a successful property investor and developer.
 
Drawing on his experience as a consultant in project management teams on major Oil & Gas and Carbon Capture projects, Peter brings the same analytical structure, rigour, and leadership to managing multiple heavy refurbishment projects remotely. In this session, he’ll walk us through his latest Commercial to Residential conversion in London that he and his business partners are delivering—offering a behind-the-scenes look at the due diligence essential before committing to a project of this nature.
 
Expect insights on managing risk, leveraging expert support, and applying engineering discipline to deliver profitable, well-designed developments. Whether you're scaling your portfolio or exploring your first conversion, Peter's journey offers valuable lessons on how to harness professional expertise to drive property success while minimising risk.

 

We also have our two constant speakers, who are present at every Global pin Meeting for their knowledge of expertise, networking and questions: 

Overseas Finance - Bruce Mainwaring

As foreign nationals or ex-pats it’s important that you have your finance in place and that you put yourself in the position that you are the “preferred buyer”. It’s even more important that you receive the correct advice, help and support from a trusted and reputable finance firm. Meet Bruce Mainwaring our Global pin Buy to Let mortgage specialist online each month for a finance update to keep you updated with the knowledge that you need to know.

 

 

AND... UK Property Market - Chris Dowty

It’s important to know your market. Meet Chris Dowty our Global pin resident UK Property Expert online each month for a UK Property Market update. Each month he will share his knowledge to make sure that you are armed with the most up to date information. He will also show how you can easily get access to off market investment properties and make sure that you go away with the tools that you need to execute and take action in your next steps on your own UK property journey.
