    (0:43) John’s had one of his investment properties for a while now, and he’s since pulled all his initial investment out. With this in mind, he’s hoping Rob & Rob can shed some light on how he would calculate the ROI in this instance.

He’s unsure of what’s going to happen with the tenancy. He wants to be empathetic but also pragmatic so he can prepare himself for what’s to come. Mark’s hoping Rob & Rob can shed some light on what he should do.

Shimi Chic ,

Practical, super helpful!

These guys know their stuff! They give really good insider perspectives, since they are property investors. I’ve learned a lot of practical info. Highly recommend!

Lots of good information!

KatherineBelle ,

The comeback will be greater than the set back!

Long time learner and listener made in London, heart in Newcastle, soul, spirit, mind and body firmly on the sands of Dubai. Your teachings from The property podcast have provided me a solid foundation upon which my analysis paralysis flounders. Every week you ignite my curiosity flame and it keeps burning till your next podcast. The ‘difficult lessons’ podcast propelled me to finally leave a five star review as not only are you both knowledgeable, giving and humble but also self-aware and spiritually aligned in a way I’d not appreciated before. Your levels of humility, self reflection and ownership are that of the so-called gurus (Eckhart - Tony Robbins) and you provide the inspirational foundation for us all to look in the mirror and face the hard truths. You’re stronger for it, I respect you more for it and this is the most powerful podcast in your collection to date. Maybe a future in the property podcast pranayama meditation and mindfulness mantras?

Plus Mark’s Dubai meet up’s and WhatsApp group management is epic!
