FPTV (EP 244) CHEAP LETTING FEES: 15 Hidden Ways They Trip Landlords Up 

Margins matter when you’re a landlord and keeping an eye on your costs as well as your income is an essential part of any successful business strategy.

But what about savings that cost you more later on? Just asbuying cheap taps or appliances inevitably means paying for replacements or repairs before too long, cheap letting fees can equally backfire.

Richard Cook and Kerin Marshall discuss why cheap fees arenever sold as coming with a reduction in service or protection, and many of the hidden costs of bargain rates only reveal themselves when it’s too late.

EP 171: THE WEALTH CREATION SHOW: A Call to Action

In the fast-paced world, ideas are everywhere—but execution is everything.

Today, more than ever, a clear and compelling call to action (CTA) is the bridge between insight and impact.

Whether you're marketing a product, rallying your team behind a new initiative, or inspiring change in an organisation, your message is only as powerful as the action it drives.

When you consistently include a call to action, you move from simply informing to inspiring and mobilising.

Does including a call to action seem like it would be beneficial to you and your business?

Luckily, you don’t need to head back to school to understand this as Lettings Director, Richard Cook and one of the UK’s most successful property investors, Jim Parker are on hand to discuss.

FPTV (EP 243) THE ASKING PRICE MYTH: Buyers Always Need a Discount. False!

 Do you believe that buyers never pay the asking price? Many sellers feel that way, but it’s not really true.

Most buyers are simply looking for somewhere to live that they love, and the homes that garner the most interest, sellfaster, and even get multiple offers are the ones that are correctly priced.

So, where does the asking price myth come from, what can it cost you, and how can you break free?

Estate agents Perrie McIntosh and Sophie Gibbens discuss this topic and provide useful hints and tips.

EP 170: THE WEALTH CREATION SHOW: Time to Take Stock

Do you ever take the time to have a go at taking stock of things in your life?

Sometimes, however organised we are, things can overwhelm us, and taking stock is what’s needed to get back to a sense of normality as quickly as possible.

Usually, we stray off course due to something out of our control taking up our time more than usual – a family emergency, illness, holidays even.

Or we can simply lose track for a few weeks as life gets busier, and we can’t stick to our usual routines for a while.

Whatever the reason – it can be really difficult to get back on track.

Luckily, you don’t need to head back to school to understand this as Lettings Director, Richard Cook and one of the UK’s most successful property investors, Jim Parker are on hand to discuss.
