Overcoming Start-Up Struggles With Alex & Sam From SO Properties


Listen Later

In this episode, we're doing things a bit differently. I'm joined by Sam and Alex from SO Properties—partners in business and in life. They’re wrapping up their very first HMO deal, and I’m excited to talk to them about that experience. We’ll be talking about the journey, the challenges they faced, and how they got started in the industry.

But that's not all—we’re switching things up a little. Sam and Alex have some questions for me, so we’re going to have a mini Q&A session. I’ll be drawing on my 15+ years of experience to offer as much advice as I can and help them navigate their journey.

If you're just starting out or scaling up, this is an episode you definitely don’t want to miss.
