WHY is such a powerful question and according to Mike Bristow once you know WHY something works intuitively through experience you should be asking WHY in a different context around the emotional intelligence that drives a far richer viewpoint on life. In this episode, you will discover what Mike’s passions are, how important absolute focus is and what his views are on legacy, cricket, property, crowdfunding and winning.

KEY TAKEAWAY

“Whatever you're doing, make sure it's right for you because that's where you can get your passion from, the energy to give you passion. Enjoy it. Do it with passion. Do it with grace as well. I think if everyone did that, the world would be a more energetic, passionate and friendly place to live.”

ABOUT CROWDPROPERTY

CrowdProperty (www.crowdproperty.com) is the UK's leading specialist property project online lending platform. 

CrowdProperty is a fintech/proptech online-lending innovator, exceptionally efficiently matching the demand (quality property professionals undertaking quality property projects) and supply (retail/institutional investors) of capital for value-creating property projects, delivering a better deal for all – borrowers, lenders, the under-supplied UK housing environment and spend in the UK economy. 

Actual property development and investment experience lies at the heart of the business meaning hands-on, expertise-led due diligence and loan monitoring. Lending is focused on the SME property professional market, a key segment for supplying much needed UK housing stock, which is poorly and inefficiently served by traditional funding sources. CrowdProperty funds property professionals undertaking any sort of property project (including auction purchases and bridging), structuring the perfect funding product and doing so with greater speed, ease, certainty and expertise than anyone in the market. As property people providing property finance, we intimately understand the market needs. 

CrowdProperty is authorised and regulated by the FCA, is an HMRC approved ISA / IFISA manager, attracts significant SSAS Pension and SIPP Pension capital and is a founding member and only property specialist platform in the Innovate Finance 36H Group (and formerly on the board of the P2PFA / Peer-to-Peer Finance Association). CrowdProperty became the first and only property P2P lender to become Brismo Verified, independently validating CrowdProperty’s market-leading performance, showing significant outperformance of Brismo's UK P2P Index.
