KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Progressive Property courses, especially Buy, Refurbish, Rent (BRR), were pivotal for Matt’s transformation—equipping him with new strategies, confidence, and a supportive network that enabled rapid growth after experiencing failure and homelessness.

  • Learn to maximise the value of each deal. Matt leveraged the BRR strategy to buy undervalued properties, renovate them to create equity, and refinance to reinvest. He added bedrooms and split rooms to what he made at every stage.

  • Matt’s journey shows that you don’t need your own money to attract investors. He secured funding for major property deals by using Progressive to put himself around the right people, demonstrating passion, work ethic, and having a solid plan. You can potentially start with nothing and use other people´s money.

  • With the right mindset, support and up to date training anyone can overcome setbacks and achieve success in property investing.

    BEST MOMENTS 

    "I basically ended up being homeless… quite a brutal experience." 

    "My portfolio, at the moment, generates about £11.5k cash flow a month. The value of it (Matt´s portfolio) is £3.4 million." 

    "It´s made a big change coming to Progressive and always will do because they always keeping moving forward, keep coming up with and using different ideas." 

    “Business is great, especially for cash flow, but you also need assets as well to help future proof yourself and your family.”
