Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas!

In this episode, I’m revisiting what I consider one of the most valuable I’ve ever recorded. I’ll be sharing my proven five-step system for building and scaling a sustainable HMO property business.

The truth is, it’s not hard to find a good HMO and make some profit. But to do this consistently, and scale it into a business that gives you time, freedom, and flexibility—that takes a process. I’ve been refining this system for nearly 15 years, and it’s still the approach I follow and teach to my mentees today.

If you’re new to the show, this is a great episode to start with. And if you’re an experienced investor, it’s a perfect chance to refresh your approach.

• 03:00 – My Five-Step System for HMO Success
• 05:51 – Finding the Right HMO Properties
• 11:56 – Funding Your HMO Business
• 18:05 – Fixing and Refurbishing Properties

Have we hit the goals we set ourselves back in January? Have we smashed those targets, or have we fallen short?

It’s become a bit of a tradition on this podcast for me to break down my goals and share exactly how I’ve done against the targets I set. I really enjoy these episodes because, not only is it part of the accountability process, but it’s also a great way to keep things completely honest and transparent with you.

Social media—Instagram, Facebook, and the like—often turns into a highlights reel. And, if you’re not careful, the same can happen with a podcast. But that was never the intention for this podcast. It’s all about keeping it real—the actual ins and outs of running a property business and building an HMO portfolio.

So in this episode, I’m going to share everything with you. I’ll tell you exactly how I’ve performed against the targets I set earlier this year. If you’re curious and want a peek behind the scenes, then make sure you stick around.

Topics covered in this episode:

• 03:00 – Why Goal Setting and Regular Reviews Matter
• 05:51 – Looking Back at 2023
• 14:49 – Finding Balance Between Work and Life
• 21:00 – Business Growth and Financial Results
• 26:46 – Challenges I Faced and What I Learned
• 30:05 – Setting Goals for the Future and Key Takeaways
