In Episode 34, Sean Spalding and Steven McKaveney are joined by Sam Dyer for what can only be described as an Aberdeen property masterclass. Aberdeen is one of the UK's most debated investment locations. Some investors won't touch it. Others believe it's one of the country's biggest opportunities. So... who's right? As someone investing in Aberdeen day in, day out, Sam cuts through the headlines and social media opinions to explain what's really happening on the ground. From tenant demand and yields to the best (and worst) areas to invest, this episode is packed with practical knowledge that every property investor should hear. Whether you're actively considering Aberdeen or you've already written it off, this conversation might completely change the way you think about the city. 💬 In This Episode: 🏙️ Why Aberdeen developed such a negative reputation 📉 Has the city really recovered from the oil crash? 📈 Where the biggest investment opportunities are today 🏠 The best areas to buy—and the areas to avoid 💰 Yield vs capital growth—which strategy wins? 🧠 How to invest confidently when everyone else is fearful 🔮 Sam's predictions for Aberdeen over the next five years One of our favourite questions... "If someone handed you £500,000 today... would you invest it all in Aberdeen?" Sam's answer might surprise you. If you're looking for facts instead of fear, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
