Sarah Walker is a property investor and landlord. She also has over 30 years' experience as a social housing professional.

In this episode, Sarah talks to Michelle about her investment model, which is structured around a business that provides supported housing for young people leaving the care system. She highlights the opportunities for investors and landlords to get involved in the social housing sector, and the practicalities of doing so.

Sarah's message is an inspirational one. Many of us are attracted to the financial rewards associated with property investment, but this is about more than making money or financial freedom. It is inspiration of another kind - a real way of making a difference in the community.

If you'd like to find out more about property investment and the social housing sector, there's a big feature on the subject in the November 2020 issue of YPN.

As well as investing in property, Karen Sutton-Johal specialises in working with people who struggle with money. Her aim is to help others develop healthy financial habits along with a positive attitude and practice around spending and investing.

As the topic of how to save, spend and invest wisely is rarely taught in schools, many of us have limited skills when it comes to allocating our income for our best interests. That applies to managing the day to day bills, as well as to setting long term goals and creating a financial buffer for the future.

Karen joins us to talk about the different relationships people have around money. It's food for thought!
