From £150 to £6.5M Portfolio – Sree Varma’s Property Journey


Listen Later

Sree Varma reveals how he raised £2.8M in private finance, scaled premium co-living projects, and built a £6.5M portfolio in just 12 months.

In this episode of RealDealChat, Sree Varma shares his inspiring journey from arriving in the UK with £150 to building multiple successful businesses — including a £6.5M premium co-living property portfolio in just one year.

We dive into:

  • How Sree transitioned from sports business entrepreneur to property investor
  • The BRR strategy that kick-started his portfolio growth
  • Raising £2.8M in private finance without “selling”
  • Building a power team to scale quickly and efficiently
  • Why focusing on one market can accelerate success
  • Lessons from early mistakes, including missed deals and over-spending
  • The systems and delegation strategies that keep him working on the business, not in it

Sree’s story proves you don’t need huge starting capital to build a thriving property business — just the right strategy, network, and mindset.
