7 Estate & Letting Agent Hacks You NEED To Know
‘Overall estate agents are good at helping you to get the best deal, but they are also great at ensuring the best deal for themselves’ In this fascinating episode, Kevin shares 7 tricks that are vital for anyone who is a property entrepreneur. He explains why agents use these tricks and how you can respond to make sure you are getting what YOU want from an agent, listen in now. KEY TAKEAWAYS Losing the keys If a letting agent is competing with another agent it can stop access, so they do not miss out on commission. Estate agents also lose keys to manipulate who is viewing a property because they may have a preferred buyer. Making you feel that you have to act now Agents are commission based so their focus is getting deals done. They will tell you there are other offers on the table or that the vendor is about to remove the property from the market to build FOMO (Fear of missing out). Talking you out of the best deal for you Never let the agent know your bottom price when selling, or your top price for buying remember they are working for commission. If you let them know these prices they will make the deal at the figures you have disclosed. Selling you extra advertising If your property is not selling agents will often tell you they can introduce extra advertising if you pay them more, the question you should be asking is why weren’t they doing this at the start of the sale process? Incorrect valuations There are 3 types of agents, and they value in different ways. Overvaluation – the aim is to tie you into a contract with them by offering an above market valuation that entices you to sign up with them and then managing your expectations. A correct valuation – this agent is realistic they may not have as many properties on their books but are the most honest and accurate in their valuation. A low valuation – this is aimed at getting the property it sold as quickly as possible.
Getting you to sign along-termsole agency contract or charging up front Only use one agent to market your property but keep flexible and don’t get tied into a long-term contract. High street agents usually operate on a contract and charge you at the end Online agents entice you in with a lower fee, but you have to pay up front. This means they have no incentive to sell the property. Convincing you to use their recommended mortgage broker If you need a mortgage they will be keen for you to use the in-house mortgage broker as this will be double commission for them. The mortgage broker is unlikely to be an independent and will therefore not have access to the ‘whole of the market’ for the buyer this results in a more limited choice of mortgage products. BEST MOMENTS ‘Trust me they know where the keys are’ At the end of the day, a bid is just a bid, it doesn’t mean it will go through to completion’ ‘Get 3 different quotes to ensure you have an understanding of the ways agents value properties’ ‘As you will be buying and selling a number of properties building a positive relationship with your agent is key’ ‘It costs you because you will not have access to the best mortgage product for you’ VALUABLE RESOURCES No Money Down: Property Investing book by Kevin McDonnell ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

No Money? No Problem! Kicking Off Your Property Empire
Kevin shares his expertise on starting a property empire with no money down. He challenges conventional wisdom, debunks common excuses, and reveals how anyone can kickstart their property journey, regardless of their financial situation. KEY TAKEAWAYS No Money Down is not just a technique, but a mindset and way of life that allows investors to scale their property portfolio without using their own funds. The CREST model (Credibility, Return, Exit, Security, Trust) is crucial for raising money and building successful property deals. Having money can be a disadvantage in property investing, as it can lead to analysis paralysis and missed opportunities. Surrounding yourself with the right people and changing your environment is essential for success in property investing. There are numerous No Money Down techniques, such as rent-to-rent, lease options, and vendor finance, that can be used to acquire properties. Focus on creating passive income streams from property to fund lifestyle expenses, rather than relying on earned income from a job. BEST MOMENTS "No money down doesn't mean no money. No money down is a way of life. No money down is a change of thinking." "I spent a bit of time doing what most people won't. So I can spend the rest of my life living how most people can't." "Most people make excuses instead of making money. And the thing is, you can only have one of them. It's which one you choose." "Money has never been the obstacle. It's all about the knowledge of what techniques to use and how."

The Rollercoaster Journey of Life and Property with Jamie Brookes
Jamie joins Kevin on the podcast to talk about what prompted him to change his life and start investing in property. He shares the knowledge that has helped him build and grow his portfolio and also reveals why buy-to-let is his favourite property investing strategy. KEY TAKEAWAYS After travelling to the USA Jamie realised that he needed to change the direction of his life. Once Jamie decided property investing would give him the lifestyle he wanted, he started doing two flips a year alongside his Dad whilst still working full-time. After a few years, Jamie and his Dad split the money they had made and Jamie started investing on his own. One of the negative sides of flipping properties is the waiting for the sale, it can take anything from weeks to months to complete. HMOs as an investment strategy can be a lot more maintenance and work than many people realise. You have to keep it at a high spec to continue to keep it at full capacity to generate the income you need. Jamie’s next step is to move to the U.S and expand his business. Having a good social media presence means potential clients will already feel like they know you, there is a relationship being built before you even speak let alone approach making a deal. Positive procrastination can come from fear, it’s better to just start the process of property investing, you don’t need everything to be perfect to get started. BEST MOMENTS "I decided that I would get into property someway, somehow” “I prefer to by-to-lets, I’m not overly keen on HMOs” “I didn’t have a leg up, at all” VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

Election Special - Can they secure Investors Votes on July 4th?
Kevin shares his candid views on the upcoming UK election. For the first time ever, Kevin reveals he will be voting Conservative, explaining his reasoning and urging listeners to carefully consider their vote. With a potential property boom on the horizon, Kevin stresses the importance of making informed decisions both in the voting booth and in property investment. KEY TAKEAWAYS Kevin believes voting for smaller parties is a wasted vote, as either Labour or Conservatives will ultimately win the election. Despite disliking both main parties, Kevin will vote Conservative as he believes they have a slightly better plan than Labour. The smartest economists work in the private sector, not in government, which contributes to the country's problems. A property crash is currently happening, with 1 in 4 people in mortgage arrears, but a massive property boom is expected to follow. The wealth gap will continue to grow as printed money during the pandemic has ended up with the wealthy, who will invest in assets like property. It's crucial for individuals to carefully consider their vote and make informed decisions about property investment. BEST MOMENTS "If you vote and there's many people, and I've had this debate on social media this week with people where there's like, Oh, I'm going to vote reform or I'm going to vote liberal Democrats or I'm going to vote whatever. Um, I hope this message gets out before the 4th of July election, you are wasting your vote." "The smartest minds are not in the government. They're not in the Labour Party. They're not in the Conservative Party. They're not in the Reform Party. They're not in the Liberal Democrat Party. They are in the private sector." "We are in a crash. The thing is, 25 percent of people are crashing, and 75 percent are absolutely fine. And people listen to this and they'll go, Oh, well, I don't see a crash. That's because you're not crashing. You're absolutely fine." "Vote not for the party that's going to solve the problem, because they're not going to solve the problem. Vote for the party that's not going to make the problem bigger."

Wealth Secrets: Unlocking your route to Financial Freedom with Kevin Whelan
Kevin is joined by wealth creation expert Kevin Whelan to discuss innovative strategies for building financial independence. From leveraging the power of SSAS pensions to exploring the seven pillars of wealth, Whelan shares eye-opening insights and practical advice that will inspire listeners to take control of their financial future. Tune in to discover how you can create multiple streams of recurring income and set yourself and your family up for generational wealth. KEY TAKEAWAYS Wealth creation means generating multiple streams of recurring income to create life certainty in an uncertain world, not just for yourself but for the next generation. There are seven key assets you can use to build wealth: home equity, pension, investments, property portfolio, business, intellectual property, and joint ventures/collaborations. SAS pensions allow small business owners to take control of their pension funds, invest in various assets, and even lend money back to their own businesses for growth. Adding your spouse and children (once they turn 18) to your SSAS pension creates a powerful vehicle for tax-efficient contributions, wealth-building, and generational financial education. Intellectual property is a valuable asset that most people underutilise, you can find ways to repackage, repurpose, and redistribute your expertise to multiply your value. Joint ventures and collaborations allow you to combine different people's strengths, perspectives, and resources to ethically serve others and create wealth together. BEST MOMENTS "Wealth only comes from the application of education plus commitment to take some action. You can't just learn, which is what most people will do." "SAS allows people to build wealth today, not wait for tomorrow." "We have the right and responsibility to educate our own children about money. They're going to live on average now to a hundred. So they're either going to have to get the lesson, otherwise, they're going to be working until they're 80." "One of the best things I ever did in 2016 was setting up my SSAS, my pension, my future for my kids." ABOUT THE GUEST Kevin Whelan is one of the UK’s leading experts and authorities on creating wealth. He’s an economist, author and the founder of WealthBuilders, an organisation dedicated to helping ambitious employees and time-poor business owners create multiple streams of recurring income independently of their job or business. Kevin teaches a simple, step-by-step, easy to follow processes that anybody can use to build wealth. Kevin and WealthBuilders are on a mission to help 50,000 families completely transform their wealth and become financially independent He has a credible track record in helping business owners create streams of recurring income both inside and outside of their company and assisting employees to jump off the corporate treadmill.

Unleashing Property Success From Doubt to Deals
Kev is joined by John and Sarah Crew who share their journey in property investing the past two years. This episode might just inspire you to get started or give you new ideas on what you can do with your property portfolio in your area. John and Sarah also talk about how important the network and knowledge gained from Progressive has been in their recent success. KEY TAKEAWAYS On his days off as a firefighter, John began helping his builder friend. Sparked by an interest in their Victorian property, John and Sarah then began to renovate and used money they had saved to start their own buy, refurbish, refinance strategy. They first attended a progressive event in 2020 which made them realise they would need to use other people’s money to build their portfolio. All locations have an abundance of property deals, you just have to learn how to find them. Build your profile in your area and network, if people know who you are and what you’re looking for the deals will be easy to find. If you find good deals then finding an investor to back you won’t be difficult. You are providing a valuable service. The purchase price of a property in BRR is one of the least important factors, the main focus is actually on the redevelopment value. John and Sarah are still working full time but this will change within the next two years when John and Sarah plan on both taking property investing on full time. The best time to start investing in property is right now. BEST MOMENTS “We decided to use a bit of money we had to start the BRR strategy” “There are more deals out there than you could ever imagine” “I don’t think necessarily you have to physically be everywhere but you have to put yourself out there and make sure people know what you’re doing and what you’re looking for” “It was quite a scary concept, using other people's money. Now we feel comfortable with that” “We’re working towards something and nothing will get in our way” VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

Fleeceholders: Are Leaseholders pulling the WOOL over our eyes? Service Charges Scandal
Alana joins Kev in this episode to talk about leaseholders and service charges. They discuss why this may be the next scandal and how the government, councils and owners can tackle the problem. They also talk about why new builds are never a good investment strategy as a house buyer and the inflated prices they charge. KEY TAKEAWAYS Some developers are claiming the leasehold charges are for the upkeep of things like roads and playparks. Developers may build parks to get planning in areas that previously would be refused. These leasehold properties on new builds aren’t transparent. Many house buyers are completely unaware of what they are buying into. Kev believes that these types of leasehold charges on new houses should be banned. We pay enough council tax that councils should be paying for roads, parks etc… New build houses are always sold for an inflated price. Legislation should be targeting the bad 5% of tenants and landlords, not the good 95%. Most current laws and legislation are hurting the good tenants and landlords. BEST MOMENTS “New build developers are advising houses for sale but they are being sneaky” “This just screams dodgy to me” “You’re almost living on a toll road when you move into one of these estates” “They’re creating a legacy for generations to come” “It’s kind of a legal-robbery” “95% of landlords are great but it’s the 5% that give them a bad name” VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.

Tennant Vs Landord - A Podcast Showdown
Kevin engages in a thought-provoking debate with tenant Alana Jackson James. They explore the complex relationship between landlords and tenants, discussing rent increases, costs, and the challenges both parties face. Kevin also shares invaluable insights into the property market, government policies, and the importance of financial education. KEY TAKEAWAYS Landlords are not simply raising rents to increase profits; they are facing significantly higher costs due to interest rate hikes and maintenance expenses, often only passing a small percentage of these increases onto tenants. The government benefits from higher property prices through increased taxes, such as inheritance tax, capital gains tax, and stamp duty, while landlords and tenants struggle with affordability. Landlords play a crucial role in providing housing for those who cannot or do not want to buy, and removing them from the market would lead to a severe shortage of available homes. The government and media often use the landlord-tenant debate as a vote-winning strategy, distracting from the real issues and lack of effective solutions to the housing crisis. Financial education is essential for both tenants and aspiring property owners to make informed decisions and create a stable future, as the school system fails to provide this crucial knowledge. Empty homes owned by councils could be a key solution to the housing shortage, but there seems to be a lack of political will to address this issue effectively. BEST MOMENTS "Higher rents does not make me more money as a landlord. Very simple thing. Higher rents are because of higher costs." "The system does not teach us financial education in school. And they don't teach us financial education in school because they don't want you financially educated." "Attack the easy person to hit. It's like the bully in the playground, go for the little guy. So let's attack the little guy." "Too many people are too book-smart and not street-smart. And what that means is they get stuck in a job exactly in the system the government want you in. Yeah, giving you enough every month to survive but not enough to thrive." "Cheaper prices, cheaper rents. Cheaper interest rates, same profit margin, solved the problem. But who actually needs higher prices? The government. The government need higher prices. Why? Because they get a tax for higher stamp, higher price, more stamp duty. Higher price, more capital gains tax. Higher price, more inheritance tax." "Sometimes you have to do what you don't want to do so you can do what you want to do.I worked really hard doing what most people won't so that I can spend the rest of my life living how most people can't."

Cash in a Property Crash - Why is NOW the right time to get into Property
Kevin is interviewed about his new book, "Cash in a Property Crash". Kevin shares critical insights on the current state of the UK property market, predicting a significant crash following the election. He reveals strategies for investors to not only survive but thrive during this downturn, and talks about the importance of education and creative thinking in property investing. KEY TAKEAWAYS The UK is in a property market correction and heading towards a crash, with many people struggling to afford their mortgages due to rising interest rates. Financing property deals is more about mindset than actual money; the wealthy control debt and leverage other people's money and properties. Property investing should be treated as a business, focusing on building a portfolio during a crash rather than saving for a single property. The system is designed to keep people in the middle class, paying taxes, and unaware of financial strategies used by the wealthy. Creative property investing techniques, such as lease options and vendor financing, can help investors acquire properties with little to no money down. Self-education is crucial for building wealth, as formal education primarily prepares people for jobs and paying taxes. BEST MOMENTS The great thing about property is anybody can do it. The jobs you do today are probably a lot more difficult than property." "The system doesn't survive without the middle class. And the system doesn't want people to be financially savvy, because if they're financially savvy, then they'll stop paying the taxes "I didn't put any money into my office deal, but on my home, I didn't just do my home with no money. My home, I was paid to purchase it." "Self-education makes you a fortune. Formal education makes you a living."

From People Management to Property Management: Do Tenants Behave Better Than Colleagues?
In this episode, Jackie Gammage joins Kev to share her knowledge and insight into property management. Jackie talks about her journey into property including the mistakes she has made. She also offers invaluable advice on mindset and skillset and talks about why everyone can benefit from the value of their own transferable skills. KEY TAKEAWAYS Jackie found it difficult to get started in property. She now recognises this was because of her own mindset. She was risk-averse and fuelled with fear which prevented her from taking action. It’s easy to get stuck in life, to stay comfortable. But not taking action prevents us from moving forward and achieving what we want. You will already have some of the skills needed to become a property investor, you just need to work out what they are and then build upon the areas where you need to learn. To achieve what you want you need to focus on it daily, create the steps and plan needed to make it happen. Surround yourself with people who have similar aspirations. Read and learn as much as possible to improve your mindset and self-awareness. BEST MOMENTS "I found that the more senior I got the less fulfilled I was becoming” “The fear of going into something new stopped me from taking action” “We’ve all got transferable skills and we don’t realise it” “Who is the person I have to become to get what I want?” “You become your environment” VALUABLE RESOURCES https://www.facebook.com/jackie.gammage.9 MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.
