In this episode of the Refurbishment Mastery Podcast, Martin is joined by property investor and entrepreneur Max Scott to explore alternative exit strategies, international opportunities, and how technology is reshaping the way property investors operate.

Max shares his journey into property, from early entrepreneurial ventures to building and scaling property businesses, before transitioning into more strategic, hands-off models. The conversation covers everything from investing in Ireland to exiting refurbs on to long-term supported housing leases and the growing role of AI in business.

In this episode, you'll learn: ✔️ Why price isn't the only driver when scaling a property business ✔️ How investing in Ireland can offer strong yields, lower costs, and unique opportunities ✔️ How 20-year supported housing leases work and why they offer stability and scalability ✔️ Why specially adapting properties can unlock both demand and value ✔️ How Max structures his business to stay hands-off from day-to-day refurbishments ✔️ How AI is helping property investors save time, improve output, and scale faster

Max also shares insights from his own journey, including how his strengths as a visionary investor shape his approach to deals, partnerships, and business growth — as well as why focusing on long-term fundamentals remains key in property.
