You may have read about how a trial in Cheshire was dramatically cutting property fall throughs and completion times - Ed talks to Phil Priest (founder of 4Corners Property ) and is the man behind it all. Plus, see how you can join in with the trial. The trial has conclusively shown that simply asking buyers to pay for an upfront search reduces fall throughs to zero and takes weeks off completion! Here he explains what he’s doing and adds in a free PIP vault data room. Given the paucity of progress from the recent Digital Property Market Steering Group meeting, it perhaps reminds us that in a largely analogue world, keeping it very simple helps.

Ed Talks to Peter Ambrose - Buying & selling property - better or worse over the last three years? 26:24

2 years ago26:24

Speed of transactions has been a hot topic for years and Ed first talked to front line practitioner Peter Ambrose in Dec 2020. So what has changed, if anything, in three years from a conveyancing perspective? As CEO of The Partnership , with 48 lawyers and assistants, as well as a software business Legalito (making tried and tested conveyancing software available to all), Peter is well placed to comment and usually doesn't hold back. There's some good empirical data in this discussion, as well as some home truths. Given the substantial amount of hot air delivered on the subject, an objective overview of what's REALLY happening 'behind the scenes' is overdue.

15:20

A reflective episode from Ed in this solo episode. Ed spent many years as part of the Douglas & Gordon family so is understandably sad to see the company end this month. Ed explains how D&G stood for strong, old-school values. We hear about fond memories, mentors and legends who impacted Ed’s career journey and even how some of his biggest competitors at the time turned into life-long friends. Estate agency life was certainly very different back in the late 70s, 80s and 90s. Did you work as an estate agent during that time, in the ‘golden era’? We’d love to hear some of your thoughts on how things have changed - if you think they have? 📖 Read Ed's article: RIP Douglas & Gordon 🎧 Listen on your favourite podcast platform 🎧 Apple podcasts…

In this episode Ed talks to the original property auction expert, David Sandeman. David is the founder of the Essential Information Group aka. ‘The only place you will find virtually every property auction in the UK’. THE go-to place for auction data: www.eigpropertyauctions.co.uk David’s advice is who you need when considering taking the still somewhat esoteric leap into buying or selling at auction. With over 30 years' experience and insider knowledge, he certainly has a comforting way of explaining complicated legal processes and methods into something much simpler and less daunting, with examples. Covering controversial topics such as ‘Modern Method of Auction’, what to look out for and what not to miss… or as David explains, “ALWAYS check the clauses and for missing paperwork in the legal documents, there may be a vital page or two missing.” If you are considering entering the world of property auctions, or would like to expand your knowledge, don’t miss out on this.

No one knows the answers (and problems) better than Vanessa Warwick. As a portfolio landlord, media personality and founder of well supported landlord forum www.propertytribes.com , she's uniquely placed to give a succinct and salient view. Landlords have witnessed extraordinary times in the last 2 weeks when it comes to Tax, Legislation and Regulation.

A roller-coaster and I’m seriously thinking about jumping off.” Not only this, but landlords have dealt with incredibly tough challenges with Covid, Brexit, energy crisis and the Ukraine/Russian war impacting the sector. There are solutions and better options though - Vanessa explains what is best to do during these times if you are thinking about investing.
