We have an old guest Ashlee Reid of Sterling Capital Group a Mortgage and Financial Advisor who speaks on what he has seen in the local property market during Covid and Post Brexit. 

We speak on the nature of the property market this year and how he has seen supply side factors currently affecting the availability of property in the London Market. He also spoke of opportunity external of London and how he sees the process that is adopted by financial institutions in determining affordability as changing, the impacts of bounce back loans on applications.

The craze seems to be crypto , with certain major digital currencies in the past 12 months returning in excess of 400%, is it a bubble? well the question remains investors are continuing to speculate if market will continue to grow or if it will crash like previous cycles.

Opportunities exist post brexit how is the UK doing in navigating these waters Post Brexit, and the trade deals and flexibility the UK now has.

The block sits down with Emil Socialize the Director of Soul Seekers, to get the lowdown on the sneaker trade and investing in trainers as an investment strategy. He speaks of the benefits and challenges of the investment  and how he sees it, if done well you can gain the ups with little downs. With over 30 years experience in the trade we ask questions around its viability and if it can reap better rewards than property.

SoleSeekers The Film, the worlds first ever feature length documentary on UK trainer culture makes history documenting the rise of collectors, inspectors and respecters of trainers, affectionately known as “sneaker heads”. People of all backgrounds, races, and religious beliefs, have banded together with one unifying purpose; to find the holy grail of trainers through the appreciation of the trainer/sneaker culture.

Award winning Director Emil Socialize (Socialize Media) directs an honest journey of the trainer revolution over the years; cleverly documenting the eras from the Football Casuals during the 70’s and 80’s, 90’s Rave and hip hop culture, year 2k Garage ravers, entrepreneurs, philanthropists and beyond.

Soleseekers The Film highlights the importance of music, fashion and UK culture to the UK trainer collectors scene in blended with stories and recollections from avid collectors Such as Kish Kash, Robert ‘Brooksy’ Brooks (Adidas collector), Magdi Fernandes plus others.

Soleseekers looks at how the Internet, the reseller markets and bots have changed the way in which collectors collect. The UK sportswear market is worth over £8 billion today and showing no signs of slowing down so it is safe to predict that the UK Soleseekers are here to stay.

Hey as they say the devils in the detail, you would hope that in the execution of the Help to buy scheme developers would in the spirit of helping those that are most exposed in the property journey, would have in place plans that protect the interest of the most venerable during their property journey. I would like us to look under the hood of what certain home builders are doing and ask if their actions can be said to be executed in the view of helping those most needing it.

Ramone Williams has lived a varied life that is driven by passion and a desire to create, spending his time between growing up in Nottingham England and spells in Central America, he has been one to rise to the challenges that life presents as a Mobo nominated recording artist, teacher of modern foreign languages and property developer we sit down with Ramone to see how he got into property and how he has created an environment conducive for investment 

In his view of working and getting to where he needs to be, having a support system that works for you and sacrifice that is needed to get from point A to B. I believe his life is a culmination of small progressive steps that can all be taken by beginners and seasoned investors. The importance of having a bigger plan, and of working with people who share the same beliefs that you do, by way of learning and honing skills and general mindset. Understanding.

Delays in our process are not denials but just temporary stumbling blocks, not unsurmountable , with thought and action. We learn of Ramones story and ask him to tell us in his own words.

I've always been a man for second chances and have kept the belief that inspiration can come from anywhere, today's guest is just that. Shack Baker is an impressive gentleman that has not been one to allow circumstance to dictate who and what his next moves will be.

Shack Baker is the founder and CEO of The Property Shack, a ground-up and airspace development company that specialises in offsite manufacturing. He’s also a creative entrepreneur, mentor and host of the property investors network in Watford. He is currently working on a 40-bed development and shooting the first series of an online production around property development and modern methods of construction.

Shack carries out talks for young people and is the founder of a community interest company that works with young adults, ex-offenders and the homeless in and around the capital. He was a regular volunteer at the former charity Kids Company. In 2019, he and a group of property entrepreneurs raised a record-breaking amount of money for charity Operation Smile that helps children and young people in middle to low-income countries all over the world who require cleft surgery.

Shack feels it is his personal calling to motivate and inspire others to be all they can be, while ferociously working his way to the top and sharing that journey along the way.
