Robin Bonn

My name is Robin Bonn and I’m honoured to be your host of the pin Brighton meeting.

I first entered the property world almost twenty years ago as a classic ‘accidental landlord’, which gave me a valuable grounding in tenant experience, asset management and the buy-to-let model. I steadily developed my skills and education, including graduating from Simon Zutshi’s 12-month Property Mastermind programme.

I’m now the co-owner of Clevernest, a specialist property investment business focused on high-end co-living spaces for working professionals. Alongside my wife and co-founder, Inga, we acquire, develop and operate beautiful HMOs – initially in East Anglia, and since moving to Brighton, we’ve been actively building our portfolio closer to home.

Alongside property, I’ve also spent the last decade running a strategic consultancy advising the leadership teams of the world’s biggest advertising agencies. I’m also a Marketing Week columnist, bestselling business author, international keynote speaker and host of a top-ranked industry podcast.

In property, I apply the same values that underpin my commercial work – integrity, partnership and clarity of strategy. I prioritise strong relationships with investors, agents, tradespeople and local communities, believing that long-term success is built through fairness, transparency and mutual wins.

We have a fantastic pin Brighton team of experienced local investors, covering a wide range of strategies. Join us on the third Thursday of the month to learn from inspiring speakers, build your network and grow your confidence as an investor.

We’re friendly, inclusive and very much here to help. On behalf of myself and the team, we look forward to welcoming you at our next pin Brighton pin.
