We took a little break from creating YouTube videos but now we’re back with an epic episode, sharing the top five underrated places that you should invest in. In the past we’ve given you our location hotspots but we think these areas could be little hidden gems so it’s certainly worth the watch.   Hub Extra This week’s Hub Extra comes from our Podcast Producer, Dan and it’s an app called Blinkist. If you’ve ever read a book that’s along the lines of a self-help/motivational/business related book then chances are these books will have lessons you’d expect to learn from them. A lot of the time, the things worth knowing about could be summed up in a long blog post rather than a book filled with waffle. Well, Blinkist cuts through all the waffle and presents you with the need-to-know information. So if your spare time is quite valuable and you don’t want to read a full book, give this app a go.   Let’s get social We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future - if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do. Make sure you’ve liked and subscribed to our YouTube channel where we upload new content every week!
