How Royce Turville's Property Business Rocketed By Doing 3 Things

In today’s episode, I’m joined by one of my mentees, Royce Turville, to break down exactly how he’s gone from steady, stop-start portfolio growth to building real momentum - raising more finance, doing better deals, and installing the systems needed to scale without burning out.

Royce shares the full story behind his journey: starting out as an “accidental landlord”, spending years building a base of single lets, then hitting that ceiling many investors reach - where the portfolio grows, life gets busier, and the business starts to feel heavier instead of freer. We unpack what changed from 2024 onwards, how he got clear on what he actually wanted, and the simple actions that unlocked serious progress fast.

If 2026 is the year you want to properly build your HMO business and you want a real, relatable example of what’s possible when you execute the basics consistently, this is an episode you don’t want to miss.
