In this episode, I’m excited to catch you up on what’s been happening in my businesses over the past couple of months.
I’m a big believer in starting with the end in mind, and while setting goals and targets for your business is key, I think it’s just as important to have goals and dreams outside of business too—those are the real reasons we build businesses in the first place.
So, I’ll share some updates from my businesses, plus a peek into my personal life. I’ll talk about the challenges I’ve been facing with settling in new tenants for my HMOs, updates on my development projects, my thoughts on the autumn budget, and more!

In this episode, I want to talk about HMO maintenance. As an HMO investor and landlord, maintaining your properties is a big part of the job. It's something you’ll need to stay on top of for the long term.
Good maintenance is key to keeping your business—and your HMOs—profitable. If you let it slide, it can quickly lower the value of your portfolio and undo all the hard work you’ve done finding great deals and refurbishing properties.
I’ll also be sharing some insights from our community about common maintenance problems, why it’s important to budget for maintenance, and the best ways to manage it.
And, I’ll give you six of my best tips to help you save time, reduce costs, and manage maintenance more easily.

We're revisiting a classic from the vault—an episode that covers everything you need to know about stress testing your deals.
I wanted to highlight this topic again because I've noticed a surge in questions from our community lately. This uptick is likely a result of rising prices, changing legislation, and a bit of market panic.
Deals aren’t as profitable as they once were, and understandably, HMO property investors like you, want to plan effectively and ensure your deals are as strong as possible.
In this episode, we outline ten key points to stress test, including purchase price, interest rates, refurbishment costs, occupancy rates, and more.
So whether you need a refresher or you’re new to investing in HMOs and unsure how to start stacking deals, today’s episode is definitely for you.

In this episode, I'm answering a question recently asked by one of our members in the HMO community. It was a great question that led to some interesting discussions, although people had different opinions.
Steven asked how to go about buying an HMO with tenants in place that needs some cosmetic work.
As you can imagine, the answer isn’t simple, and there were different views. If you’re thinking about buying an HMO yourself, whether it comes with tenants or you have the option to do so, this is definitely something to consider.
We’ll dive into this topic, and I’ll share my best advice on how to handle it.
