A lot of aspiring investors spend months (even years!) stuck in research mode. They’ll read the books, listen to the podcasts, maybe even save up a decent chunk of capital… but still hold back from making that first move. And more often than not, the reason isn’t money, or lack of deals, or some missing strategy. It’s a story they’ve been told (or told themselves) about what’s possible. That HMOs are too complicated. That the market is saturated. That they need to buy a buy-to-let first. Or h...

From PE Teachers to Property Profits: How They Cracked the £1k/Month HMO Formula
Tash never planned to get into property. She was a PE teacher, living in Liverpool with her partner, when they won £50,000 on a game show. Most people would’ve booked a holiday. They bought a house - and not just any house, but one in serious need of work, with no real clue what they were doing. Fast forward a few years, and Propella Property (the business Tash now runs with Amy and their friend Sophie) is behind one of the best looking HMO projects I’ve seen this year. It’s a six-bed in Derb...

He Got a “Zero” Valuation on His First HMO. Here’s What Jay Did Next.
When Jay bought his first investment property, he didn’t think it would turn into a two-year battle - delayed by a party wall surveyor, derailed by a rogue contractor, and topped off with a “nil valuation” from the bank at refinance. Most people would’ve walked away. But Jay didn’t. He project-managed the second half himself, found a way through the setbacks, and still came out the other side with a fully tenanted HMO, £800 a month in cashflow, and a lot of lessons to carry on to his next dea...

Turning £20k into 12,000 Sq Ft Developments (Joe Robertson's Story)
Joe bought his first property at 21 - a brand-new, city-centre apartment for £110,000. It's not the type of project most of us would get excited about, but he obviously saw something in it, as a few years later he sold it and had turned his £20,000 deposit into a £90k profit. That was in 2011, and after years of honing his craft he’s just bought a 12,000 square foot commercial building at auction, with no prior experience in commercial, and no clear plan for what he’d do with it. Just another...

Adam's 22 Month Sprint to 4 HMOs
Adam was almost a decade into his surgical training, a few years away from becoming a consultant, and working towards his PHD, when one day he looked up and realised this wasn't what he wanted to do for the next 40 years of his life.

The Project That Nearly Broke Us (And What You Can Learn From It)
They say property investing is about managing risk, but nothing prepared me for this project. What should’ve been a straightforward commercial-to-residential conversion turned into an 36-month nightmare - a planning battle that dragged on forever, a builder who cost us £30k before vanishing, and a full team meltdown when everyone (myself included) suddenly disappeared from the business. But here’s the thing: the deal still stacks up. In this episode, I’m breaking down everything that went ...

I Almost Lost My Business (and a lot more)
“They say life throws pebbles before it throws rocks—and if you ignore the early warnings, get ready for an avalanche.” On the morning of my wedding day, I got a call from a tenant. A boiler issue. And guess what? I was still the main contact because, at that point, I was the business. A few years later, I thought I’d cracked it - I’d hired someone to manage our properties so I could sail into the sunset (literally). But what I didn’t realise was that hiring someone into a broken business, wi...

Will Labour destroy property investment? Renters' Rights Bill Update
The Renters Reform bill has been on the agenda for UK Government since it was first proposed in 2019, but with Labour’s win in the 2024 general election, it looks as though it will be reprioritised by Keir Starmer’s party under a new name - the Renters’ Rights Bill. And with the bill being brought forward by a left leaning party, it’s no surprise that the focus will be on providing more security and protection for tenants while ensuring landlords know their responsibilities.
