Episode 30 6 Rounds with David Dixon: From Classrooms to Cashflow

💼 What does it really take to leave a career in education and build a life on your terms through property?

In this episode of The Financial Freedom Podcast—brought to you by Property Portfolio Building and sponsored by Property Filter—we sit down with David Dixon, a former assistant headteacher turned full-time property investor, mentor, and backgammon competitor (yes, really).

David shares how he transitioned from the classroom to a cashflowing property portfolio, why he pivoted from HMOs to low-maintenance units, and how financial freedom has enabled him to focus on family, purpose, and passion.

🎧 Expect practical tips, personal truths, and property wisdom built over 25+ years of real-world investing.

💡 You’ll learn:

✅ The unexpected lessons from managing difficult tenants and how to protect your mental health

✅ Why converting HMOs to self-contained flats changed David’s business—and life

✅ How he’s supporting his son’s unique needs while continuing to grow his portfolio

✅ The importance of “T-I-M-E” when it comes to being a great dad and business owner

✅ And yes, how to win at backgammon 🥇

This one’s equal parts strategy and soul.
