Episode notes
US Policy Could Shift Global Capital
- Donald Trump's proposed US ban on large investors could redirect capital into the UK property market and push prices up.
- Rob Bence warns this is speculative and unlikely to require immediate action but notes the logical flow if it happened.
Target Doncaster For Strong Yields
- Look at Doncaster and its surrounding towns for high yields and low entry prices with strong transport links.
- Target areas with good train and road connections and industrial employers to maximise rental demand.
Newcastle’s Timing Has Arrived
- Newcastle has moved from 'one to watch' to a live opportunity because rents have risen sharply.
- The combination of low prices and recent rental growth now creates genuine yield plus capital growth potential.
