Julie shares her journey from managing over 500 properties to becoming a leading authority in compliance and training. They delve into the importance of mindset in achieving success, the challenges of problem-solving in property management, and the unique experiences that shaped Julie's career, including her time at Citizens Advice and her work with vulnerable tenants. KEY TAKEAWAYS A strong mindset is crucial for success in property management. Embracing a "get it done" attitude and being a problem solver can lead to significant achievements, even in challenging environments. Effective communication is essential in property management. Adapting your communication style to connect with different individuals, whether they are tenants or landlords, can lead to better outcomes and resolutions. Identifying and addressing gaps in the property sector can create opportunities for success. The speaker's initiative to establish a Rent Arrears Support Service during the pandemic exemplifies how recognising unmet needs can lead to impactful solutions.

Persistence in the face of adversity, along with the ability to adapt to changing circumstances, is key to long-term success. Building a network that prioritises community support and peer-to-peer learning can create a positive environment for property professionals. The speaker's approach to networking events emphasises the importance of collaboration and shared experiences in overcoming industry challenges. BEST MOMENTS "If I wanted your job, I'd already have it." "I realised very quickly, I have no patience to sit there and stroke someone's ego." "I think a lot of it genuinely comes with maturity." "If I could just get people to sit down and talk and understand that, you know, it's not just them." "I was genuinely unemployable because I knew more and had more experience than most of the managers that were trying to manage me."

  • #024 From Redundancy to Refurbs: Darren’s Leap into Property Success
    In this episode, Emma Howitt engages in an insightful conversation with property expert Darren Burrows. Emma and Darren explore the critical mindset shifts necessary for success in the property business, emphasising the importance of collaboration, delegation, and creative strategies. Darren shares his personal journey from managing projects to building a legacy in property, highlighting his extensive experience in refurbishments and project management.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Emphasising the importance of collaboration, delegation, and outsourcing in property management is crucial for success. Many individuals initially try to do everything themselves, which can lead to costly mistakes and inefficiencies. Having a background in project management and construction can provide a significant advantage in property development. Understanding the various moving parts and being able to foresee potential issues can help in delivering projects smoothly. Effective marketing is essential for success in property. Building relationships with estate agents and utilizing social media are key strategies. Consistency in marketing efforts often outweighs knowledge and experience. Exploring innovative building techniques, such as Insulated Concrete Forms (ICF) and spray cork, can lead to more efficient and sustainable construction practices. These methods can reduce labor costs and improve energy efficiency. Being prepared for setbacks is vital in property development. A thorough planning process, including contingency plans, can help mitigate risks and ensure that projects stay on track despite challenges. BEST MOMENTS "One of the biggest mindset shifts is the ability to understand you've got to collaborate, delegate, outsource stuff. A lot of people want to try and hold on to everything and do everything themselves." "You have some huge experience, huge transferable skills, and you've got something really amazing to add onto that." "If you can get all of those boxes ticked before you even start the project, you've thought about all that... you can foresee what's going to go wrong before it goes wrong." "I'm a big advocate for looking at all the different technologies, putting it all together in one package and then just using that." "You know, you're actually being selfish if you're not sharing that because someone else is experiencing that as well."

  • #023 Redirecting Energy: Turning Comparison Into Positive Action in Property Investing
    In this episode, Emma delves into the detrimental effects of comparison on your property journey and offers practical strategies to overcome it. Emma emphasises that comparison can lead to frustration, self-doubt, and distraction from personal goals. Emma shares insightful quotes and encourages listeners to focus on their unique strengths, practice self-compassion, and redirect their energy towards actionable steps that foster growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS Comparing yourself to others can lead to frustration, self-doubt, and wasted energy. It's essential to recognise that everyone's journey is unique and to focus on your progress instead. Be aware of what triggers your feelings of comparison, whether it's social media, networking events, or conversations. Understanding these triggers can help you manage and avoid them. Focus on your own goals and measure your progress against your past self rather than others. Celebrate your milestones, no matter how small, and use key performance indicators (KPIs) to track your achievements. Be kind to yourself and recognise that everyone's journey is different. Allow room for mistakes and growth, and avoid harsh self-criticism by treating yourself with the same kindness you would offer to others. When you catch yourself comparing, pause and redirect that energy into productive actions that move you forward in your property journey. Focus on tasks that contribute to your growth and success. BEST MOMENTS  "Comparison is the thief of joy." "You don't know what their situation is. You don't know whether they have just been given a whole massive chunk of money." "A flower does not think of competing with the flower next to it. It just blooms." "The only person you should try to be better than is the person you were yesterday." "Energy spent comparing yourself to others is energy wasted. Invest it in your own growth."  HOST BIO Emma Howitt is a seasoned property coach, mindset expert, and entrepreneur with many years of experience in transforming lives through property investing.

  • #022 The Real Reason You’re Not Seeing Results in Property (And How Persistence Changes Everything)
    In this episode, Emma delves into the crucial role of persistence in property investing. She explores why some investors thrive while others falter, emphasising the importance of understanding that success often requires time and patience, akin to the gestation periods seen in nature. Emma shares insightful quotes and anecdotes, including the bamboo tree's growth process and the significance of small, consistent actions over time.  KEY TAKEAWAYS Success in property investing often hinges on the ability to persist through challenges and setbacks. Understanding that there will be ups and downs can help maintain a steady course. Every goal has a gestation period, meaning results may not come immediately. It's important to remain patient and continue working towards your objectives, even if progress seems slow. Consistent, small daily actions can lead to significant results over time. Establishing a routine and setting key performance indicators (KPIs) can help maintain focus and drive. Developing a strong mindset through daily habits like affirmations and visualisation can rewire your subconscious and enhance your ability to succeed in property investing. Emphasising the importance of enjoying the journey rather than just focusing on the end goal can lead to a more fulfilling experience. The relationships built and lessons learned along the way are invaluable. BEST MOMENTS "The day you plant the seed is not the day that you're going to eat the fruit." "Most people overestimate what they can do in one year, but underestimate what they can do in ten." "Success is not final. Failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts." "You have to keep going. And imagine if you just stopped and you are a millimetre away from that gold." "It’s not just about what you do, but it’s also about what you think."

  • #021 The 3 Costly Mistakes Stopping Your Property Success (And How to Avoid Them)
    Today, Emma takes a look at the three biggest mistakes that new property investors often make, emphasising the importance of logic and data over emotion in investment decisions. She discusses the necessity of thorough research and due diligence, highlighting how understanding market trends, tenant demand, and local area dynamics can significantly impact investment success. Emma also stresses the value of building a trusted team of professionals to avoid rookie errors and make informed decisions.  KEY TAKEAWAYS When investing in property, it's crucial to rely on facts and figures rather than emotional attachments. Understand the numbers, location, and return on investment to make informed decisions. Never underestimate the importance of due diligence. Research the area, market trends, tenant demand, and potential risks to ensure that your investment strategy aligns with the location. Surround yourself with a reliable team of professionals, including solicitors, estate agents, and contractors. Collaborating with experienced investors can help you avoid costly mistakes and make smarter decisions. Establish specific investment criteria that you will adhere to, focusing on the desired return on investment. This will help you stay disciplined and avoid impulsive decisions. Success can lead to complacency. Instead of learning the hard way, study the experiences of other investors to understand common pitfalls and how to navigate them effectively. BEST MOMENTS "Use logic and data, not emotion. We have to really cut off this emotional element." "Risk comes from not knowing what you're doing." "Don't do it alone. Make sure you build a great trusted team." "The stock market is filled with individuals who know the price of everything, but the value of nothing." "Success is a lousy teacher. It seduces smart people into thinking they can't lose."
