Property Chatter

Welcome to the property voice podcast helping you to navigate safely through the world of property investing, get the lowdown and updates, insights, and outcomes on all matters property with a splash of entertainment along the way to a property, voice the voice to trust among the crowd. Now, let’s get started with your host, Richard Brown.

Hello, and welcome to another episode of the property voice podcast. My name is Richard Brown. And as always, it’s a pleasure to have you join me again on the show today. Well, today’s our birthday, my birthday, or the property boy’s birthday. Basically, it’s our birthday. And the the name, the property voice is about six years old. So it’s about because it came into existence really slightly before April 2015. But I think the voice came to life in April 2015, the very first episode of the property voice podcast was recorded or released rather, on the third of April 2015. And I listened to it just now actually, just to find out really what it sounded like back then. And it was kind of interesting. I can’t I can almost remember recording it. I certainly remember, I believe there were 17 takes before I was satisfied enough to release it. It wasn’t very polished. It was heavily scripted. Actually, when I first started, I don’t have much of a script these days. But when I started, it was heavily scripted. I had a guest so-called guest host in the name of Kaiser, who was a robot, quite frankly. And that was a text to speech, robot, you know, voice sort of translator. And all I could really do is get Kassar to ask a couple of key questions. And then I would answer them if you’d like to try and bring a brand of interactivity to the podcast. I do remember those early days of podcasting and being very, very frustrated, not very confident, being heavily scripted, and maybe a little bit wooden, if I’m honest, in how I actually presented. Maybe that was better than in some respects. Because now I have noticed as a few items in ours that occasionally slip into the that was probably one into my talking. Because I’m thinking as I’m going rather than having this particularly heavily scripted, I’ve got a couple of talking points. But I’d like to cover off with you. Anyway.

So third of April 2015. That’s when it all began in terms of the property voice podcast. Prior to that there was the I had a news feed service, which I was sharing information, a kind of a cuase I blog. So the the origins of the proxy voice certainly were spawned before April 2015. But let’s say the official start date, certainly the podcast was April 2015. And in fact, April 2015 was a very, very busy month for me. So not only did I launch a podcast, also launched my first book. So property investor toolkit was also launched in April 2015. That went to Amazon bestseller status, I’m happy to report it as you remember, back at the time, saying I’ve got Amazon bestseller status. And Rob Benz I think I was talking to at the time is some of you might know Robin from the property, property podcast. And he she said to me, I see you got to number one is a free book. Initially, when I released the book, I launched it as a free book. I didn’t really think anyone was counting for ebooks or pay for books, but apparently people were.

So then I switched it to be a paid-for the book and it still went to bestseller status. So I’m actually pretty chuffed about that. And it also filled a lifelong, almost lifelong dream really, of wanting to write write a book I, I always I often say that that book was 30 years in the making. Now it’s not that 30 years before I knew I’d write a book on the property, but I kind of felt I had a book in me. And yeah, it took a little while to get it out of me onto paper. But so I did so that was April 2015. There’s been one or two podcasts since then there’s been one or two books since then. So just to give you some stats actually, the approaching I think it was 300 episodes now of the property voice podcast. And I you probably know by now I usually take a couple of weeks off a year runabout summertime round about Christmas time. So that’s why it’s not quite 52 times six, though it’s approaching 300 episodes and in terms of the number of downloads that’s approaching 400 Now, they hadn’t actually looked for a little while I was used to saying, as is around about 300,000 downloads. But as of yesterday, it’s now approaching 400,000 downloads. So I know it’s not the highest volume, listen to podcasts that you can get. I’m not sure it’s on any top anything less these days. But thanks for sticking around. I really appreciate you. If if you’ve been sticking around me for a little while. Some of you might have been there for all, you know, 300 episodes, who knows? And if that’s you, you deserve a medal. Thank you so much for sticking with me through thick and thin. During the time, if you like we’ve had together on the podcast, there’s been different formats of mentioned casseras. My co-host, for example. I’ve done a, I think seven series with that. No, no, I know, it’s seven series, I’ve got it written down in front of me.

So the first one was it also in April 2015, obviously, shortly after launch, when I launched a series called property investor toolkit. So it coincided with the book complemented the book if you like. And that was all about the foundations of property investing. And that’s interesting because I kind of feel like I should return to my roots a little bit, some Six years later, or the start of the seventh year, maybe with another series on I won’t call it foundations, and it won’t be exactly the same content. But I kind of feel that I should revisit and sort of circle back and do some of the foundational stuff for property investing. think maybe my thoughts have expanded have evolved, have been added to generally speaking over the years. So I think it’d be good to return to that. So I’m thinking that might be the candidate for the next series, I haven’t done one for a little while, being a little bit scuppered, actually, with COVID, etc. In fact, just between you and me, the series I did have planned or earmarked to do in 2020, was all about our call to go around the regions. And I was going to go on a roadshow around the regions of the UK. And I was going to cobble together people and do a live type of q&a. If you can imagine question time, that type of format, and then do some, you know, interviews with some of the local property boards in each of the regions. And what’s the low down and it’s each particular area. I had that planned actually, but a certain virus. So cold and scuppered that plan might return to that one day, but not anytime soon, probably.

So I’m thinking about doing the foundations again, you know, back to basics property 101 style, what do you think? Is that a good idea to go back and recover that? Or do you think you know, someone who some of the more recent listeners? Do you listen to the back catalogue? Do you go searching for relevant episodes for you and where you’re at, I don’t know, is the honest truth. So it’d be useful to hear that. But in terms of the series just so prophecy, investor toolkit, April 2015, it was followed by property cycles, and I really enjoyed the property Cycle series. Because cycles, you know, it goes deeper than you might imagine. There are not multiple cycles to cover. So that was October 2015, that I had a big series really on property financing. It was big, I had a lot of that was the first one where I had interview guest interviews, subject matter experts, as I call them, who joined me on the series. That was a lot of fun recording that that was in September 2016. And that was followed by prop-tech. So did a whole series on Prop tech. That was that didn’t start until January 2018. So there was, you know, 15 months gap, actually, between the start of property financing and the start of prop-tech. Actually, property financing was quite a long series. So probably went quite a long way into 2017, actually. But the prop-tech one Yes, I have had it said to me that perhaps that was a bit heavy going for some. Yeah, I’m trying to break through a couple of barriers occasionally, with what I do in terms of my content. Sometimes that means being a bit progressive, sometimes that means taking a few risks. Sometimes it means you know, going a little bit against the grain actually. So I do try and do that. And maybe the series on Prop tech was an example of that. But I really liked it. And of course, that also spawned the second book that I wrote, and I’m just gonna check one out was released. That was in December 18, actually, so the year of 2018 was the prop-tech year. I think I dedicated that year to the subject of Prop tech. I was immersed in it, I was surrounded by it. I was you know, deeply ingrained in it. I was writing about it. It was is very much front and top of mind. It was for a season. I think that I’ve kind of moved on from there, although it’s been reinvigorated more recently because my book prop Tech has been translated into Korean. Actually, it’s being launched in Korea and listen For some wonderful people changuk, who’s done the project over there is an amazing job he got translated into Korean, I have a copy of the book quite close to me, he sent me a batch of them. So if you speak Korean, I’ve got a couple of spare if you like one, then the next series was women in the property. In March 2019. I wanted to bring a bit of diversity into the onto the agenda, that, you know, just we’re just talking about one dimension of diversity here, I might venture more into the area of diversity. Actually, that’s another idea I’ve got for a theme. I don’t know how appropriate that is, for me to say that, but what do you think? Is it appropriate? I obviously don’t want to cause any uproar or upset by you know, bringing that in. But I just want to showcase people from different backgrounds and contexts and upbringings and speaking with different accents, etc.

So, diversity is very important to me. And the women in property was also important to me, it’s great to showcase some wonderful women and what they’re doing. I was joined by Helen Pollack as co-host. So that was another experiment there. Helen joined me in that series and really enjoyed that. And that was in started March 19. The next series after that was actually property heavyweights. The internal working title for that was deca millionaires. So we kind of had it that unless you’re worth 10 million or more, you can’t be on that series. So we didn’t fact-check to everybody. We didn’t ask them to show us their net worth statement or anything like that. But that was kind of the unwritten rule. So if you know, if you want to know what the heavyweights really mean, you could perhaps check that out that started in July 2019. I really enjoyed that series, again, I was joined by Helen his co-host. So that was good. And the most recent series on the podcast was full-time in property wanted to do a series on that. And it was really a contrast. Because the property heavyweight series was all about names, if you like people who’ve who should be known or would be known in, in property circles, then the full time in property series was for you everyday people really, that was my intention to showcase people who’ve just made it to go full time or aspiring to go full time. Because also there were some people in that category on that series, who I call everyday people. So it’s not that they’re ordinary, the fact that extraordinary. But I just wanted to showcase that was quite a good contrast. I felt anyway, I don’t know what you felt. And that started in May 2020. So it’s obviously been almost a year since we’ve had a series.

So I’m kind of feeling that we do one. So good. Let me know your thoughts on the series, I’m thinking of perhaps going back to the property 101 style. I don’t think I can do it around the regions and the diversity route is something that is on my mind, actually. But if there’s something on your mind, why don’t you let me know. And in fact, on in that vein, on the topic of it being my birthday, you know, my sixth birthday, it’s sometimes hard to keep going, I’m going to be very honest with you. And I’ve tried to engage differently, you know, formats and different times, I had your voice section in the early years, where I was encouraging people to write in, or actually, there was a voice message service, I used to have people who would literally leave a voice message with a question or something of that order. But there wasn’t a lot of engagement. There wasn’t a lot of feedback. There wasn’t a lot of interaction. So we’re going to drop that after a while because it was kind of hard work, really. But at the same time, I don’t get super loads of feedback. Maybe I should search for it in a different way. Then the way I do, I don’t really ask for it, I suppose. But now again, people do drop me the odd message I’ve got I’ve got the regulars who dropped me a message some of you send me things I heard you say this, this might be interesting. What about this topic, Richard, have you thought about it? Or they’re just you know, just chatting, just, you know, getting in touch and saying things so I have my regulars and you know who you are. Thanks for that. It really does make it so worthwhile to hear from you. And help keep me going. But it’d be really encouraging just to get a bit of feedback from time to time, even if you think well Richard, that wasn’t very good. You know what you’ve just been doing it to say that I don’t mind. Well, my a little bit. But yeah, I can take it all on board, I’m sure. So what would you like to cover? And there was a couple of mini-series as well. I forgot to mention that. Actually, in terms of the podcast, there was the how you should spend x mini-series. So how should you spend 10,000? What would you do if you had 10,000 in property, and 250,000 in property and then a couple of intervals in between.

So it was a mini-series on that there was a mini-series on property horror stories. I didn’t expect it would be as long as it was but I think there were at least seven episodes in the end on property horror stories coming from different angles. And I have a few ideas of taking that on a little bit further. And then most recently, we had the mini series around the sort of 2020 He wants sprint challenge around goals. So that was a bit of a quick sprint, there was an extended version of something I’ve done from time to time, I’ve had the odd episode on what I call The Diary of a property investor. And that’s where I’ll just share an update of some of the things I’ve been up to periodically, maybe at a six-month interval, sometimes a one-year interval. I’m not rigid about it. But the goals challenge was sort of a massive, you know, version of that, in a way. We’ve got different other formats of the podcast as well, there was the long-form musings one, which is now called sound bites. So the sound bites one is just whatever I want to talk about, basically. And then there were the holiday shorts mini-series as well, where I was literally taking a holiday. And I pre-recorded a bunch of forum questions and answers to share whilst I was away, as well. So there was even a secret page in there at one point, I don’t even know if that secret page is still available. But yeah, there was a secret page at one point.

So that’s the, sorry, the podcast is just going to talk about the book next. So two books are being published, I’m currently writing the third one working title is property finance, I’m not sure I’m gonna change that and put it, I put it to the vote, and asked whether it should be property finance or property financing. And the series on the podcast was property financing. But I think the book will be property finance because if you were to go and Google property finance, you probably put it in property finance, we probably wouldn’t put in property financing. So that should be out in the spring. That’d be the third book if you like what I’ve written so I’m very, very pleased about that. It’s there are over 60,000 words, on paper at the moment, whether that’s too many, I don’t know. But there are a couple more chapters to write. So that might be getting a bit of a sort of a scalpel. And trim that back a bit. Who knows. But I’m very excited about that book, I’ve really enjoyed writing actually. And it’s not going to be the typical book on property financing, that you might imagine, I can assure you of that. And the best way of showing you is probably the typical book on property financing might have things on buy to let mortgages, bridging finance, development, finance and commercial loans, probably will, that’s just one section out of three sections of the entire book. So I think three or four chapters were actually four chapters. And the book is at least 18 chapters. So that gives you an insight of how broad I’ve gone, gone, how wide I’ve gone on this topic. And the other two, there’s one section called traditional financing, or institutional financing. There’s a second section called, what’s it called alternative financing, as a third section called creative financing. So I’ve really enjoyed it, I hope you do, I can’t wait to share it with you. And if you want to know when it’s going to be launched, just drop an email to Karen admin at thepropertyvoice.net and asked to go on the Advanced booklist. And you’ll be one of the first people to hear. So that’s how you find out about that. And then the other bit of content that I guess I’ve been working with, besides podcasts and books is the magazine articles. I’m a columnist for ypn magazine. And it’s funny enough, it’s coming up to my fifth birthday writing, I forget that you know how long I’ve been writing for YPN Jane and the narrative, you know, in particular, who I’ve been working with, and of course at the property at YPN been amazing to work with over the last five years. So really enjoying that, in fact, they’re chasing me for this month’s article 30 to get that done. But I just did a bit of account back there in the 62 articles as well. You can get all of those subscription-free, just drop us an email admin at thepropertyvoice.net asked to go on the YPN subscription list. And you can see every single article that I’ve ever written. So some really interesting ones in there, even if I do say so myself, probably can’t say to myself, but I’m going to anyway. So there’s the YPN column as well. So it’s quality content. In addition to each, there’s a bundle of blog posts. There’s a bunch of forum contributions that are out there. There are a few videos and stuff on the YouTube channel. The stuff on social media, I share from time to time, so there’s plenty of content, there’s dating back for probably half the time I’ve been in the property. Counting back the time is about 12 years now being sort of active in property. So lots happened in that period of time. There’s been a lot of change. There’s been a lot of development and progress has been some highs has been some lows. But yeah, I just thought today I just sort of celebrating if you like the birthday of the property voice and it allows me to let you know what’s going on a little bit here. And I was thinking as I was preparing this whether I you know, have I got a favorite episode, those sorts of things. What about what was what series that I enjoy the most? What was the high what was the low I decided I wasn’t probably going to go In that direction, I think I’ve enjoyed a lot of what I’ve done, I think in terms of series have really enjoyed the heavyweight series,

I guess probably was aspirational in many ways. So I enjoyed it for that reason. I enjoy. I finally, I’ve enjoyed the oddball soundbite episodes where I really just come from left field sometimes, I remember the one I call I called woo Wednesday, for example, which is just what it felt like at the time, and done a lot of mindset stuff. So stuff, which is not directly related to property. I stumbled across the podcast where I spoke about Bitcoin back in 2017. Well, you can hardly call me a pioneer in 2017. But he certainly wasn’t mainstream at that point in time. So that, you know, that was a little bit off the beaten track of property, as well. So there was a bunch of things that I really, you know, enjoyed doing. I enjoy it the most when it’s, it’s almost last minute, and just this creative spark comes out. So I don’t quite I don’t always enjoy the series as much, funnily enough, because it takes a lot more organization and planning to do a series than it does just to sit down on a Monday evening with a glass of red next to me and think, well, what am I going to talk about with you guys today. And, you know, I quite like that spontaneity, that creativity, and perhaps a little bit of pressure that comes out of not really knowing what I’m going to say, I have been thinking about it, by the way, I’ve been stewing on it over the weekend, sometimes it takes some notes. And I think this topic, that topic is not completely random and off the cuff and last minute will not always anyway, but the series is a bit more planned and measured. And sometimes it’s also a lot of work because you end up front-loading a lot of the interviews and then you drip feed them over time. And you know, if you’re into this game of content sharing, then that’s probably the right way to do it. In all fairness, but I, you know, I’m writing at the moment, so a lot of my energy and creative energy is going into writing. So that’s one of the reasons why I’ve kind of held off doing a series anyway, I do digress, there’s plenty of the property voice content out there. I’ve named-checked and referenced quite a lot of it. If you didn’t know that already. Somebody was following me on Instagram, by the way, follow me on Instagram, on the property voice on Instagram. Wherever you follow me at the moment, make sure you follow me on Instagram, because it’s I’m increasingly using it I need to use it more, share more. But that will be the sort of first port of call for your regular content, certainly on social media. So please follow me on Instagram. But somebody commented the other day Oh, I commented, I’m writing a book and I wrote 7000 words this weekend, I’ve written I think 6000 Naira and 68,000 words for this book so far. And there’s no way I didn’t know you, you were writing a book. And I said, Yeah, I’m writing this book. And actually, it’s my third book. And they were Oh, I didn’t know you’ve written any books. Of course, you know, people don’t necessarily know. So I’m kind of telling you those two books, one in the one in the waiting, it will be out this spring. That is my intention. That’s my goal. I’d like your input, actually, on a few bits, maybe a couple of proofreaders, maybe I’m going to get some views on the cover, perhaps the title and the subtitle. So I want you to get involved at some point in time. And so that’s that. The other thing I would say is this, it’s probably been a while not probably it’s been a long time, since I’ve asked for people to leave reviews. And I’m going to do that now because I don’t labor the point. But I would love it if you would leave a review for the property voice podcast on iTunes, but it doesn’t have to be iTunes people listening to the podcast in various downloading streaming devices or podcasters generally. So just wherever you listen to the property voice podcast when he leaves a review, hopefully, it’s a nice one. But you know, if it’s not a nice one, well, fair enough, that’s your opinion. But it’d be great to get some reviews and the reviews help drive people towards podcasts. I know it’s a bit of a niche, this format this particular topic, and I’m really really grateful. By the way for you. If you listen to this podcast you take time out to tune in. A lot of people aren’t doing commutes at the moment. So if you’re still listening, even though you’re not doing a commute, then you know even more credit to you. I really appreciate it. But if you are commuting or traveling and you’ve got got the headphones in or you’re at the gym or you’re running or you’re walking the dog, whatever it is you’re doing and you’re listening to my podcast every single week, or just occasionally I just want to thank you, thank you for listening. I really appreciate it six years, the motivation can run a bit dry if I’m being completely candid with you. So reviews is going to help you know to drive the motivation, a bit of engagement now and again is going to drive you to know me to do more suggestions, you know things that I can do which I would like to do which you would like to do will help motivate me to keep going. I don’t know if I’m going to do another six years. In all honesty, I was thinking about, when do I want to get to 10 years? Do I want to get to 12 years? I’m not entirely sure. So what would be great is to get a bit of encouragement in that respect. If you enjoy the podcast in general, let me know. Let the world know, for a review. And equally, if you’ve read any of my books, for example, leave a review, please, that’d be fantastic. If you would be kind enough to do that. It’s all I can really ask, isn’t it? Because the most expensive content that I’ve put out there is is my books and I think the if you bought the full-color version of the prop-tech book, it will cost about eight quid I think something like that. So it’s not going to break the bank is it the content that I put out the podcast is free. My articles on YPN are subscription-free, if you write in you know, the first book is about three, three pounds, I think it is the price for coffee, pots, that book you can get for, I think fiver for the black and white version. So it’s a low-cost material, but hopefully not low quality. And that’s certainly not my intention. So yeah, give us a bit of a boost, it would be great to do that. But there we go, I just wanted to wish myself a happy birthday. That’s what I really wanted to do today. So happy birthday to me, happy birthday to the property voice podcast. And thank you so much. I really am grateful for each and every one of you for listening in for writing in for joining in and making a contribution and making it all worthwhile, really. So I’m going to shut up now I’m going to let you get on with whatever it is you’re doing and say your evening because it’s an evening for me right now when I’m recording this, but I’m gonna let you get on and do whatever it is you’re doing. Thanks for being around, I really appreciate it six years down, not sure how many more I’ve got in me. But you know, with a bit of help, and a bit of motivation and encouragement will hopefully go for a little bit longer yet. So maybe the seventh thing we celebrate?

Well, here we are, is the end of the first call on the proxy voice apprentice program. I’m just slowly now so get it right. And we’ve got most of the compliments from the group where there’s one, unfortunately, couldn’t join us today. But you might hear him on a subsequent episode, we just finished a two-hour session. And so everyone’s probably feeling a bit tired and beaten up. But I’ve made them stick around, just so that you can give a brief introduction about themselves, which is 13 days into the 100-day program, it’s going to tell you a little about a little bit about themselves. I’m going to kick off with Sergio over to you.

Okay, so my name is Sergio. I’m 2929 years of age and I’m based in London. My main goal is to achieve 5000 pounds per month by age 35. My objective for the 100-day program is to clarify what the best strategy is for me to achieve this goal, which it looks like it’s going to be either a flip Brr or financing more complex deals with JV partners. But also, I’d like to start the process of buying my own home and add some value to it. And as well to find on raise private investor finance. So far, after my conversations with Richard, this has helped me to widen my horizon on becoming aware of more options that I didn’t know they were available for me. And really being part of the program. I think it’s going to increase my time thinking about property. It’s going to help me because I will have support from my group and it will also accountable to it which it’s definitely gonna speed things up. And that’s it. Perfect, thanks, Sergio. Yes, welcome to the group. And if you ask for accountability, we’re gonna give it to you. So thanks very much. Welcome, Sergio. And next up we have

Lee. Hi, I’m Les. I’m age 30 from Bournemouth. Not sure my strategy at the moment my portfolio is okay. could probably retire. But I have pretty big ambitions on maybe what to do in the future. I spoke with Richard roughly about an acceleration plan. So by age 35, I’m hoping to get roughly 200,000 pounds net a year from various property strategies. So yeah, that’s me.

Thanks, Rachel, sweetie. Please welcome to the program. We’ll work on those various strategies, I’m sure looking forward to it. No worries. And so next up, I’m not sure what order you’re going to do it how you’re going to do it. But we’ve got none and Emily, we manage. So I’m Emily, I’m 35 years old. And this is my beautiful fiance, Nana, Nana. Yeah.

I’m 35 years old as well.

Yeah. Now we have a company in the UK, we live in Sweden. So we overseas investors. And we also have a podcast and a YouTube channel. And our goal is to do full-time property to spend more time with our kids.

So what we’re hoping to learn in this program is more about different financing objects, objects, and different types of security towers, private investors. And our aha moment. So for was when we had this, we thought that we had to create a vision board, but it was instead a gold board. So yeah, we’re looking forward to it. Then, like Emily mentioned to you have the podcast, I guess, Rachel, we put it in, in the notes.

will indeed, but you can say what it’s called and what your YouTube channel is, and people can go find it for themselves.

Okay, so the YouTube channel is miracle properties, Ltd, as some companies are called. And the podcast is the painter Florida podcast. And Richard is actually on a day you should listen to this episode. Yes.

There you go. So if nothing else, I’ll share a link to that into listening to it. So we’ll make sure that they are in the notes for this for the show that we share this recording on. So thanks very much welcome both Nana and Emily and Emily, I know that you’re very heavily pregnant. So thank you so much for making it today. Were probably within maybe hours or weeks you You’re welcome both of you.

You’re welcome. And I guess that brings up Daniel, then Daniel, you’re up next.

So Hi. Thanks, Richard. So my name is Daniel, I’m 52 years old. And I live in the Cotswolds. So my rough plan or my goal for this, I’ve had a lifetime in it. And its sales, I’ve had highs and lows in that career. And although it’s a fairly lucrative career, I’m no longer excited by it. And I’m looking for an exciting career in property in a way out. I’ve had one property for a number of years, which was quite good for us. But I realized during that time, you know, my wife likes to do so much more and could learn more. So that’s why I’ve joined this program. I don’t know what my strategy is yet, because really at the start, and I’m a sponge for knowledge, but it looks like it might be BTS. HMOs short term, let’s my objective of this program is to understand the processes understand how to model deals, how to evaluate how to pick, you know, good property investment strategies, and work with other people, I was really keen on the networking side of this, to hear other people’s experiences and see how they’ve gone about their journey. So that’s the aim for both remote and for me. I mean, on one of the first calls I had was Richard, we quickly took an example of one property that we assessed in Gloucester. And Richard said, simply, if you took this deal, and you looked at the short term, let viability of this and he quickly taught through that deal to a point that actually was a fairly small investment, with a good wind in it, and it runs to the right way, you know, there, you’ve immediately got a strategy for one BTO which can make you some good money. And that was a, you know, that was new to me. So that’s what I’m looking forward to. So that’s me. That’s it, Daniel, thanks very much for that share. Yes, I remember that. Yeah, whizzing through a deal, it was a bit of a high-risk thing to do in life. But there was a lot of fun. So and talking about a lot of fun, it’s been a lot of fun to have you all on this call today. It’s gonna be a lot of fun and how old he has been to work with you. I’m looking forward to the next, the remainder of the 100 days with 13 days in. So obviously, we’ve got 87 days remaining. I nearly got that wrong as a pretend to be a finance guy. But it would have been quite embarrassing if I didn’t know how many days remaining, wouldn’t it but we can all relax down now because I’m going to stop the recording. I really appreciate you sticking around to the end of the call the group Call today to do that recording so that people on the podcast could get a small insight into you at the start of the journey and could manage and watch your journey over the next 100 days or so. Thank you very much, everybody. There we go. So this Jonah is going to be over the website the property voice.net. If you want to talk to me rather than Karen, my assistant Kara is on admin at thepropertyvoice.net Richard me podcast at thepropertyvoice.net you want to talk about anything from today’s show or your property and generally speaking, a bit of forewarning, I’m kind of getting a bit buried with emails at the moment. So if you have written to me and I haven’t responded is that’s the reason. There’s a lot going on at the moment. The spring challenge, the latest apprentice program has just launched writing this book. Yeah, there’s quite a lot going on so got quite busy. So if you’ve sent me a message you haven’t replied send me another one. Just to remind me. That’d be great or WhatsApp is my sort of thing of choice these days. But you need to know my mobile number to get me on WhatsApp. So there we go. What else can I tell you? That’s it. Really. Thanks a lot for listening.
