Property investing for lawyers (and other professionals!) With Ruth McCarthy, Director at SPI Capital and former Head of Real Estate at JMW, a Top 100 National Law Firm and Anna Clare Harper

In Anna's words:

Something specific this week on the podcast...Let me know if it’s useful for you!

We work with so many lawyers and investment professionals who spend all day helping their clients make money, and struggle to invest for themselves.

So I wanted to share something that dealt with the issues - specifically those facing lawyers, but almost everything covered applies across professions.

The lovely Ruth McCarthy, Director at SPI Capital and former Head of Real Estate at Top 100 National Law firm JMW shared her experience - both having been a lawyer, and also having been exposed to real estate throughout her career.

Key topics include:

• Why lawyers are so great at helping their clients make money, but struggle with their own investments
• The most common mistakes lawyers make around investing such as buying overpriced off-plan and new build flats that often end up underperforming
• How lawyers can get round the common issues that hold them back

It makes sense not to put all your money in one investment.

Traditionally, many investors have chosen residential property as their ‘diversifier’.

But is property still a good way to diversify, when prices are high?

I spoke to Rebekah Tobias, Head of Business Development at Family Office Marcol - who invest across Real Estate and Private Equity - about this.

Key topics include:

What is diversification and why is it important right now?

How can you diversify your portfolio?

Does residential property investing still make sense as a diversifier?
