    Can A Couple Work Together and Keep the Romance Alive?

    Can A Couple Work Together and Keep the Romance Alive?

    In this episode, Nick and Caroline delve into the topic of couples working together in business while maintaining romance.

    They discuss the importance of having a shared vision and goals as a couple, drawing from their own experiences in property investing. The conversation touches on the challenges of balancing work and romance, as well as strategies for communication and alignment in relationships where one partner may not be fully on board with the property business

    KEY TAKEAWAYS


    Maintaining a shared vision and goals as a couple is crucial for working together in business and keeping the romance alive.
    Communication dates, where couples set aside time to talk about feelings and personal matters, can help strengthen the relationship.
    Personality differences can complement each other in a partnership, leading to successful outcomes in property investing.
    It is possible to pursue property investing even if one partner is not actively involved, as long as there is support and alignment in the life plan.
    Networking and being part of a like-minded community can provide valuable support and guidance for individuals pursuing property investing on their own.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "It's very challenging though to actually remain a married couple with the romance as well as all the business and talking vision and all of that stuff."

    "I think the message here is very clear that you can absolutely do this on your own, without your partner helping you or hindering you in some cases. And equally, you can get the partnership aligned, ultimately, if the vision is in the similar vein."

    The Difference That Makes The Difference

    The Difference That Makes The Difference

    In this podcast episode, Sarah Blaney and Nick Claydon discuss the importance of having a clear vision and taking action to achieve success in property investment and life. They share personal experiences and recommend books and podcasts that have influenced their mindset and approach to achieving their goals, highlighting the significance of setting non-negotiable goals, doing the necessary work (referred to as "doing the reps"), and seeking help and resources to accelerate progress

    KEY TAKEAWAYS


    Before making any changes or pursuing any goals, it is essential to have a clear vision of what you want to achieve.
    Success comes from taking consistent action, doing the necessary work, and not expecting results to magically appear.
    Listening to podcasts and reading books can provide valuable insights, inspiration, and practical strategies for achieving success.
    Re-evaluate daily tasks and consider outsourcing to focus on strategic aspects of the business, working smarter rather than harder.
    Surrounding yourself with mentors and coaches can provide guidance, hold you accountable, and accelerate your progress towards your goals.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "You have to know what it is you're trying to do, why you know, what are non-negotiables? How do you want things to change?“

    "I loved The Four by Scott Galloway. It really delves into Facebook, Amazon, Apple, and Google, and talks about their identity, their marketing, the way that they're run, and the very ethos of those companies."

    "It's about lifestyle. It's not about how many properties you got or what your portfolio looks like. It's about, you know, we have one life, it can be short, you know, things can happen. You've got to make the most of it."

    "So get the vision, do the reps, make the plan, get it done, do more reps."

    Side Hustles & Learnings From Gary Barlow

    Side Hustles & Learnings From Gary Barlow

    In this podcast episode, Sarah Blaney and Nick Claydon address questions from coaching clients, focusing on the importance of having a side hustle in addition to building a property portfolio. They emphasise the need for passion, skills, and monetization when choosing a side hustle and delve into the concept of resilience and how it plays a crucial role in overcoming setbacks in property investment

    KEY TAKEAWAYS


    Building resilience is crucial for success in property investing. It involves overcoming setbacks, staying focused on goals, and surrounding oneself with positive influences.
    When feeling stuck or overwhelmed, taking small, consistent actions like viewing properties, networking, and setting clear goals can help regain momentum and motivation.
    Setbacks are inevitable in property investing. It's important to reflect on past experiences, identify what worked, and use that knowledge to navigate through challenges.
    Connecting with the why behind property investing and having a clear vision of goals can help maintain focus and drive, especially during tough times.
    Surrounding oneself with a supportive network of mentors, peers, and like-minded individuals can provide valuable insights, guidance, and encouragement in times of difficulty.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "You've got to find that fire and the passion for getting out and getting over all these obstacles, because I wish I could say there aren't any when you get more advanced, but you know, they just, the obstacles just get bigger."

    "Expect the worst but hope for the best. Yeah, that's probably a good mindset to go in with, you know, expect that things are going to go wrong. But sometimes they don't. That's okay."

    "You fall back on the experience of, well, when I felt like this last time, what did I do? And, you know, if it was okay, well, a funding problem, then what I did was I picked up the phone and spoke to XYZ and got more answers and more information which would help me through this."

    Andrea Carrington On Finding Property Deals In A Chaotic Market

    Andrea Carrington On Finding Property Deals In A Chaotic Market

    In this podcast episode, Caroline Claydon is joined by Andrea Carrington to discuss various aspects of the property industry during International Women's Month. Andrea shares insights into her property business, including buying properties for herself and sourcing deals for clients. She talks about the challenges and successes she faces in the market, particularly focusing on HMOs and social housing. The conversation also delves into the timeframes for securing deals, the importance of building relationships with builders, and the challenges faced by women in a male-dominated industry

    KEY TAKEAWAYS


    Consider starting with buy-to-lets before moving into social housing or HMOs to build a strong foundation for your property investment journey.
    Embrace a mindset of confidence and assertiveness to navigate through challenges in a male-dominated industry, such as dealing with old-school landlords or patronising builders.
    Don't hesitate to leverage the support of others, whether it's finding a safe person to accompany you to meetings or seeking advice and encouragement from experienced investors.
    Focus on changing the internal dialogue to boost confidence and overcome self-doubt, remembering that growth comes from stepping out of your comfort zone.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "I'm getting calls pretty much every day from different charities asking if I've got some stock for them, because there just isn't enough."

    "I love the viewings, I love the hustle, I love the networking, I love all of the aspects. Because I just, it's just my thing."

    "I think possibly leveraging off someone else time or space or whatever it is that you need. I think that's why yesterday I met that one of our students when she was like, because she's doing it on her own."

    "Last week, I can't, you know, I'm not good at raising money. You won't be because you've just told yourself you're not."

    Flipping Property in a Recession to make Ten of Thousands of Pounds

    Flipping Property in a Recession to make Ten of Thousands of Pounds

    In this podcast episode, Caroline Claydon is joined by property investor Jordan Kynoch, who shares the details of a successful flip he recently completed. Jordan discusses the strategic decisions and challenges he faced while turning around a distressed property in a village between Perth and Dundee

    KEY TAKEAWAYS


    Jordan's property flip resulted in a profit of over 80,000 pounds, exceeding his target and showcasing the potential for success even in a challenging market.
    Jordan's ability to secure off-market deals highlights the importance of networking and leveraging contacts in the industry to find lucrative opportunities.
    Listing the property during the Christmas period, typically considered a slow time in the market, proved to be a smart move as it attracted serious buyers and led to a quick sale.
    While the primary goal was a flip, Jordan had a secondary exit strategy in place, considering the option of renting the property if needed, showcasing the importance of having backup plans.

    BEST MOMENTS

    "I was aiming at least doing, trying to get at least 40 grand across from the flips."

    "It's a really exciting time and it's hard for people to understand how much opportunities are out there when you read the media, right?"

    "I bought it off market again and I've not touched it. I'm putting it back on to sell it straight away because I bought it at such a good price."

    "I always like to do something a bit different to the norm, because it means that you've got that extra step ahead and you've got that jumpstart."
