Lucy Ingram joins Kevin in this episode to talk about the interesting and innovative things she is doing with her property partner Steph. They discuss how their property journey started, what is has evolved into now and what they have learnt along the way.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- Lucy and Steph were both serving in the military when three years ago they decided to go into a property business together.
- They started to learn as much as they could about property, starting with free courses and books including Property Investing Secrets by Progressive founders Rob and Mark.
- They then started doing paid education, which is when they attended Progressive’s Multiple Streams of Income Course and it led to them buying their first buy-to-let properties, serviced accommodation and rent-to-rent properties.
- Lucy and Steph scaled very quickly, potentially too fast as it meant they didn’t reflect on some of their mistakes quickly enough.
- Lucy has been able to leave the military and focus on property full time, the long-term plan will also be Steph to leave too.
- As a landlord, rent to rent has a few significant benefits, for Lucy it was getting a good price whilst having her properties looked after in a hands-off way.
BEST MOMENTS
“We were spending way too much time working and not enough time together”
