    David Liddell: From 1 BTL to a Family-Run Hospitality Empire...

    In today's show we turn on the big spotlight again - the Property Pros Spotlight!  Where we bring someone into the studio and hear the story of their property journey.  Where they've came from, what they've done, chat about their deals, and learn what kind of business they have grown. And today's guest, David Liddell, is the perfect example of what is possible in the world of property. Known for his dynamic approach to property, David is a seasoned investor and developer with a background in engineering who has found remarkable success by harnessing his analytic skills, adapting his approach, and embracing risk. In this inspiring interview, David shares the journey that led him to property investment and the lessons he’s gathered along the way. David’s career began in offshore engineering, a field he initially pursued for financial stability but found lacking in fulfillment. After a near move to Australia that fell through during the pandemic, David redirected his career, using capital from a former property sale to dive into property investment.  A key takeaway from the conversation is David’s transition from over-analysing deals, a habit from his engineering days, to a more balanced approach that combines thoughtful diligence with decisive action. This change, as he explains, was instrumental in allowing him to expand his portfolio and take on larger, more complex projects. The conversation also touches on David’s strategic shift into service accommodation, which has allowed him to establish a profitable, scalable business model. David shares the challenges and rewards of this niche, particularly in the Scottish market, where demand for short-term accommodations offers attractive returns.  For David, service accommodation isn’t just about property; it’s about creating memorable experiences for guests and supporting the local community through job creation and collaboration with nearby businesses. As Richard and David discuss David’s current ventures, including several large-scale commercial conversions, it becomes clear that his journey is far from over. With ambitious plans for growth and a clear focus on hospitality, David is poised to reshape his business and further refine his investment strategies. His plans to take these projects international, alongside his personal goal to balance family life with business, make for an inspiring vision of the future. Listeners interested in property investment, service accommodation, or simply looking for a story of ambition and grit won’t want to miss this episode.  David’s passion and wisdom make for an enlightening and motivational listen, offering valuable insights for both seasoned investors and newcomers alike.  Tune in to hear the full interview and follow David’s exciting journey as he continues to push the boundaries in property investment... https://www.thisweekinproperty.tv/david-liddell/?el=TWIP

    Lesley Treacy: Building a greener future with Dandara...

    In today's episode of This Week in Property, Richard had an insightful conversation with Lesley Treacey, Head of ESG (Environmental, Social, and Governance) at Dandara.  The interview provides an in-depth look at the importance of sustainability in the property development sector, with Lesley sharing her extensive experience and unique perspective on how the industry is evolving. Lesley discusses the growing focus on ESG, highlighting how issues like biodiversity, energy efficiency, and sustainable building practices are becoming central to modern construction.  Lesley explains the key drivers behind this shift, from regulatory changes to rising consumer awareness and grassroots movements. With sustainability no longer a niche concern, it has become a top priority for developers, investors, and governments alike. One of the key topics covered is Dandara’s ongoing work to implement the Future Homes Standard and achieve net-zero carbon homes by 2050.  Lesley touches on how this ambitious target is reshaping the way homes are designed, from using renewable technologies like air source heat pumps to improving the energy efficiency of materials and building processes.  However, Lesley also notes the challenges posed by this transition and how collaboration with suppliers and the broader industry is crucial for success. For listeners interested in the future of property development and how companies like Dandara are addressing the pressing issues of sustainability, this interview offers valuable insights.  Lesley’s passion and expertise shine through, making this a must-listen episode for anyone keen to understand the challenges and opportunities in building a greener, more sustainable future.  Tune in to hear more about the projects and innovations transforming the industry...   thisweekinproperty.tv

    Simon Massey: Protect you and your assets...

    You've bought an investment property, or you're planning to? Ok. Quick question... Have you bought a house, a home, a property, or an asset? All just words of course. But the one you choose will say a lot about your mindset as an investor. If you chose any of the 1st three words, then you maybe have a hobby. Or an interest. Or a side hustle. If you chose 'asset', then you might just be an actual INVESTOR. Serious. Professional. Focused. And if you are indeed an investor, buying assets, growing portfolios, generating revenue, and building a legacy for your nearest and dearest...then you better make sure you're PROTECTING them! All of them. Insurance is a boring word; we're talking about several layers of PROTECTION here. Simon Massey, from Express Mortgages, is a specialist with a wealth of experience. There's not much that Simon hasn't seen with investors and investments. Sadly, some of those have been sad tales of assets being lost, businesses not being structured properly, tax being overpaid, and families left with a LIABILITY rather than a LEGACY. Let's have less of those sad tales please! Let Simon help you. Help protect your assets. Help protect you. And help protect what you've built for your loved ones. In today's chat, the conversation goes everywhere. From the most obvious, like Buildings Insurance, to the more specialist and more obscure. And to questions that you might not even have known to ask yourself. Tune in to watch or listen to Simon's wisdom when it comes to protecting the things you've worked hard for, and the people that you're doing it all for...

    Craig Carson: Barratt building a better London…

    Where is the prime place in the UK to face, experience, challenge and enjoy “the game” of property, planning, building and development? It has to be London, yes? And the ‘spear’ for facing that battle needs to be credible and powerful. So how about the iconic name of Barratt? And for the tip of that spear, you’re going to need someone who has seen it all. Experience and expertise in the game for over 20 years. Knowledge of planning and development inside companies from SME developers to giant PLCs. Experience of residential-led volume developments, tricky brownfield sites, mixed-use projects, and major regeneration programmes. But they can’t just be a Solo Star. They have to enjoy building partnerships and relationships. Seeing the best and the opportunity in others. A track record of forming partnerships that find solutions, solve problems, and bring award-winning homes to the people and families that come to live in the end home or the constructed leisure space. Someone who doesn’t just know and excel in the detail, planning, design and construction with success and financial figures. But who actually cares about the residents and tenants involved. And takes actual joy from travelling past sites that he’s been responsible for building years before. Someone who thinks about the now and the present, but also thinks about the future and legacy. That person just happens to be today’s guest, Mr Craig Carson, the Managing Director at Barratt West London…

    Julie Condliffe: an inspirational journey from homelessness to success...

    So you've had challenges in your life, yeah? Ever been made homeless? Ever had that happen to you and your family before you were even 1 year old? No? What about feeling that life is against you? Had that family home taken away from you because of some lack of paperwork? Some legal technicality? A battle in life where your family had to pull money together to get you overseas to try and make money elsewhere to send it back to your family? No? What about your darkest moments? How did it feel when you were at your lowest? Your own 'rock bottom'? Was it a scenario where you had to actually live and shelter inside a red phone box in the city of London? Was it like that? Did you feel as hopeless and as vulnerable as a young person in their twenties would feel in that kind of environment? No? And what about your mindset, your resilience? Have you been able to find the strength to take the darkest moments and find light in them? To take a dark feeling of "life happening to you" and empower it with a confidence of "life happening for you"? To grind through jobs and work and study, no matter what the hours or pay, and do it with a heart full of caring and gratitude? To see every potential hurdle as an opportunity? To see every rejection and blockage as a chance for you to step in and fix them? No? Well that's just a sampling of the life story of today's guest. Julie Condliffe is a powerful force of inspiration in this life. Julie has walked between the extremes of poverty and homelessness, to success and wealth. A self-taught, best-selling author, who has inspired many people through her books. A trained lawyer, who has now helped thousands of property buyers and sellers. A successful property investor in her own right, who has not only taken on the lessons from buying over 40 properties through the auction process for her own personal benefit, but who also uses that unique skillset to guide and advise an endless line of other property investors in the same arena of property auctions. It's a story and a life that will amaze you, inspire you, encourage you, and motivate you. Listen to today's show now...

    Property Pros Spotlight: Sean Spalding

    Did you know exactly what you wanted to do after school? No, neither did today's guest, Sean Spalding. He passed some Higher Exams, he had some jobs in retail and sales. He even tried searching down a few different paths with college, university, working with his dad, and even applying to join the police force. Curiously searching around for his path in life, for the route to success and supporting himself and then his family. Have you, or are you, surrounded by people and systems telling you that certain things are just not for your kind of people? Yeah, that's what Sean faced too. He could see signs and examples of how, for example, money and wealth could be achieved through property investing. However, schools and establishments, and even family, dictated that he could easily work IN property in some way, but the real profits and wealth were for some reason only reserved for other types of people. Whatever that actually means. Have you yet found the resilience and determination to just keep going, to just keep looking, and to just keep learning? Good. Cause that's what Sean did. He kept working and grafting. But he also kept his eyes and ears wide open for learnings and opportunities. In today's show, Sean speaks about the various jobs and refurb projects he worked on, and how he was always looking for how the people behind the curtains, the investor owners, were able to find and structure and buy the properties. He speaks about all the lessons and learnings through his work. He speaks about his education through Paul McFadden's Property Protege programme, and how he managed to recoup that investment from his very first deal. Are you looking for inspiration and encouragement in your own journey? Well listen in to Sean's powerful story about his various deals, about the sellers he has helped, the investors he has helped, and other property sourcers that he's done business with. It's an impressive story. And it's a story that is still being written, with a long way to go...

    Prime Property Auctions: the way auctions should always have been done...

    What things pop into your head as a seller or a buyer when the word "auction" is mentioned?   A large, stuffy room with over-emotional bidders waving paddles in the air and paying over the odds for a property they haven't properly considered?   A seller having to give away massive amounts of their property's value just to desperately get a sale that their local estate agent couldn't manage?   A buyer's panic at a host of fees to pay, with feelings more of gambling than security, and a countdown clock ticking loudly towards a short completion date?   It doesn't have to be that way!   And it's NOT that way if you're lucky enough to do business with John Morris and Luis Guarin from Prime Property Auctions.   Those stuffy rooms in a dated hotel on a specific date that you might not make, are replaced with 2024 tech of online property presentations and a simple offer process.   As John and Luis' expanding team love to say: "Every day is auction day at Prime Property Auctions!"   What words would reassure you as an investor looking to buy at auction?   What about hearing that at Prime, they have auctioneers who are actually investors!   Yes, both John and Luis are experienced property investors in their own right.   They get it!   They know all about the pressure of running due diligence, of thinking of your proper exit strategies, and also understanding and discussing the bigger picture of your own personal investment strategy, criteria and risk-mitigation.   You don't just throw a paddle in the air for someone with a hammer who couldn't care less about you.   The guys take a keen interest in speaking with and understanding your own personal investment journey, and can speak your language!   But what if you're not an investor and simply a personal buyer? Even a 1st time buyer?   Again, the team fully appreciate your desires and concerns, and are there to guide you by the hand with all aspects of purchasing, solicitors and mortgages.   They can find and share properties with you that can be your ideal personal home.   So does all that buyer assistance mean that the seller has to lose out?   Absolutely not!   What about hearing these wonderful assurances as a seller..."Sell your property within 28 Days. You set the price, No upfront costs & no sale, no fee."   Yes, that's the way that auctions should be working to help the sellers of property out there too.   And that's exactly the security and reassurance that Prime Propety Auctions brings.   Now hear the full amazing story.   In today's episode with John and Luis, you'll hear all about their approach to helping so many different people, and the full fascinating story of how Prime Property Auctions came about and has rapidly grown.
