Join us this week as we talk to buying agent Karim Bazzi about what buying agents do and why there seem to be so many buying agents in Prime Central London.

We discuss the impact of the internet and how it compares to using a buying agent, what clients think buying agents do vs what they really contribute to the relationship and the three main markets that are best suited for buying agents.

We chat about off-market or pre-market properties and the advantages of working with a buying agent in comparison to managing the process yourself and Karim shares his top tips on what to look out for when choosing a buying agent.

Michael Handford-Arnold joins us again to explain what to consider when you are putting your house up for sale.  We discuss seasonality and how to make the outside area and/or street work for you (think cherry blossoms in Spring and cosy fires in Winter). 

Staging can start from the very basic things like cleanliness, uncluttered spaces and basic maintenance and work all the way up to getting in professionals. There are a number of excellent staging companies and decluttering services who can assist you with this. We have some personally handpicked ones listed in our experts directory to get you started. 

We discuss how to avoid making your space too sterile while keeping a balance between clutter, pets and children and how to show off potential furniture placement by adding in suitable options like a small desk with a printer on it for a home office space.

As always we love to hear your thoughts. Let us know your experience of staging a house for sale and if there are any tips you would like to share with us. Connect via email at [email protected] or follow us your way on our social media platforms.

Join us in discussing the spectrum of learning difficulties with Dr. Nanda Shaheen.

Suppose there was a veteran society for those with a deep understanding and instinct for early years learning and special learning needs, then Dr. Nanda Shaheen would be a founding member.

Dr. Nanda Shaheen started her career in Washington DC, where she taught children with dyslexia, ADHD, and dyspraxia. Over the last 30 years, Dr. Nanda has gained unrivaled experience teaching young children in Washington DC & London.

We talk about how learning difficulties tend to show themselves around the ages of six or seven. Dr. Nanda mentions that one should never expect a single solution to fit all and how, as a doctor, one needs to look at the bigger picture: the family environment, the school's teaching style, and the learning style of the individual child. The solution has to be tailored to the individual child and the unique environment of that child.

We also discuss some DO's when it comes to parents: being open-minded, taking to as many professionals, doing the research, and asking many questions until the solution seems to be working.

With a focus on Mental Health Awareness this month, we interviewed breathwork practitioner and coach Artur Paulins.

Join us as we discuss how using your breath properly can relieve anxiety and stress and increase your performance and focus. Breathwork is applicable to everyone, from children to the elderly and it is a tool that you have access to all the time.

There are different types of breathing for different situations, and a consistent daily practice can help you to cope better in stressful situations. Being able to reconnect with yourself helps with emotional reactivity and can alleviate symptoms like panic attacks.

With this in mind, Artur has shared with us his free Bite Sized Breathwork which is a five minute audio that you can download and use anytime, anywhere. You can download this here.

As April is tax month, we are joined this week by Alan Kennedy, an expert in taxation with many years of experience assisting high net worth clients. 

Alan talks us through the difference between Buy to Let for individuals and for companies and what to consider when planning for this. He discusses the balancing act between personal tax rates and interest element tax rates and what to think about when deciding if you are going to invest as an individual or a company.

We also discuss what are the potential Capital Gains Tax implications of an individual investment versus a company portfolio. And what actually constitutes a valid company portfolio from a tax perspective and the challenges around incorporation as a process.

Even if you already own a property at an individual level, this interview will give you some guidance on how to maximise your tax deductions and set up your tax process as efficiently and effectively as possible.

As always, we love to hear your thoughts. If you would like to work with other Experts like Alan, we invite you to join our platform and connect with us at  [email protected] or on our social media channels.

Join us in discussing the world of invisible personal security with Kate Bright of Umbra International. 

Kate talks about how you should never underestimate the power of the personal assistant and how she got into the security world initially.  

We discuss what it takes to train and work as personal protection for high net worth individuals in a male dominated industry and the various skill sets that women bring to the business, and how personal protection varies for different clients, with the common theme being that the security needs to be discreet and blend in seamlessly with the client and their family.

On this week's podcast we chat with Susie Hollands, Founder and CEO of VINGT Paris.

Susie shares her insight around the Paris property market and how different it is to the London market in terms of available stock, rental investment options and how Capital Gains Tax can positively affect long term ownership. We talk about how Paris has limited availability of stock and what a challenge renovations can be with the current lack of contractors and raw materials. 

We discuss famous football players and how the Paris market, while much more resilient than a market like Manhattan or London for example, is seeing an increase in American buyers due to the strong exchange rate at the moment.

Join us for Susie’s global overview of the overall French market and the local London market and the impact of events such as Brexit and the pandemic. 

As always, we would love to hear your thoughts. Please feel free to contact us if you have any questions, or you would like to work with Susie who is one of our trusted Experts.
