TPP349: Rob D built 10 apartments: The results, lessons and pain

This week on The Property Podcast, The Robs are doing something a little different. Rob B is interviewing Rob D on his own property development exploits.  One of our most popular podcast episodes this year was when we discussed our project in Crewe, which was a rather eventful and emotional journey to say the least. If you haven’t listened to that episode, you can do so here.  But amazingly, that wasn’t enough to put off Rob D. He’s just done a property development project just outside of York.  In the episode you can expect to find out: What exactly this development was What the results were  What went wrong What went right  And what lessons Rob D learnt from this project So sit down, grab a brew and tune in as Rob B picks Rob D’s brain about this new property development.    In the news this week, Savills have predicted that house prices are going to increase by £35,000 in five years for some parts of the country. No shock that it’s actually in line with what Rob & Rob have been saying throughout the year, and the highest regional growth will be in the North West, which will go up by 24%.  Maybe now you’ll take that leap into investing in one of the areas that The Robs picked as their 2019 property hotspots.    And if you haven't watched it already, last week we published our latest YouTube video, the essential guide to property tax which will walk you through the various taxes you have to pay and some ways that you can avoid them. So make sure you go give it a watch, hit that subscribe button and turn on notifications so you don’t miss our next one.    For Hub Extra this week we’ve got a podcast that Rob D just can’t stop listening to. It’s called The Missing Cryptoqueen from the BBC. Now before you jump the gun, Rob D isn’t interested in getting involved in crypto currency, or a massive scam, which is what the podcast is all about.  It’s only an 8-part series but it’s a really interesting one. To give you a brief overview, it’s about a woman who created a new crypto currency which was going to be bigger than Bitcoin. She secured billions of Euros from people all over and then just vanished, and nobody knows where she is. It’s very fascinating so definitely give it a listen!   We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
