    TPP088: Why you need a property mastermind group

    enNovember 20, 2014

    Podcast Summary

    • UK's housing shortage: 250,000 new homes needed annuallyThe UK's housing shortage persists, with only 109,000 homes built in the last decade. 300,000-330,000 new homes are required to meet demand due to population growth, leading to rising property prices

      The UK is facing a significant housing shortage, with the government's target of building 250,000 new homes each year being far from met. In fact, the number of homes built in the last 10 years has only reached 109,000, and the Royal Institute of British Architects now estimates that 300,000 to 330,000 new homes are needed annually to keep up with demand. With the UK population growing by 500,000 in the last 12 months, the need for housing is only increasing, making the challenge of meeting this demand even more pressing. This housing shortage contributes to the long-term increase in property prices due to high demand and limited supply.

    • UK Housing Crisis: Planning Approvals Drop and Mastermind Groups Offered as a SolutionThe UK housing crisis persists with decreasing planning approvals and rising housing demand. Mastermind groups, inspired by Napoleon Hill's book, may offer a solution for attendees to learn, brainstorm, and achieve their property goals.

      The housing crisis in the UK is worsening, with planning approvals dropping significantly in 2006 and still not fully recovering. The number of homes needed to meet demand continues to rise, and there's a lack of concrete solutions to increase supply. The Property Hub Summit event was mentioned as an opportunity for in-depth strategy sessions for a small group of people to help them hit their property goals, inspired by the concept of mastermind groups. A mastermind group is a peer-to-peer learning and brainstorming session where members share their knowledge, expertise, and resources to help each other solve problems and achieve their goals. The term was popularized by Napoleon Hill in his book "Think and Grow Rich." The Property Hub Summit aims to be a full day mastermind event led by the hosts, with the hope that attendees will form their own mastermind groups afterwards.

    • Join a mastermind group for growth and successJoining a mastermind group offers access to valuable insights, accountability, motivation, and idea sharing, helping you overcome challenges and accelerate progress towards your goals.

      A mastermind group is a small, supportive community where individuals come together to reinforce growth and success. This type of group offers impartial advice, accountability, motivation, and idea sharing. By joining a mastermind group, you'll gain access to valuable insights and perspectives from others, helping you overcome challenges, stay accountable, and accelerate your progress. Additionally, the motivation and inspiration you'll receive from your fellow members can be a powerful catalyst for growth and success in your personal or professional life. Mastermind groups provide a safe space to learn, grow, and achieve your goals with the support and guidance of like-minded individuals.

    • Learn from peers in mastermind groupsJoining a mastermind group of committed investors offers valuable insights, fresh ideas, and moral support for personal and professional growth in property investing.

      Mastermind groups, whether formal or informal, can provide invaluable insights and moral support for property investors. Surrounding yourself with individuals who have diverse perspectives and experiences can lead to creative problem-solving and fresh ideas. Mastermind groups of 4 to 8 committed members, who keep their egos in check, can foster a dynamic and energetic environment. The formal structure of these groups can also provide accountability and help ensure progress towards goals. Overall, mastermind groups offer a valuable opportunity for investors to learn from each other, gain new insights, and find support in their investing journey.

    • Forming a Mastermind Group in Real EstateJoining or creating a mastermind group with like-minded individuals can broaden your knowledge base, enhance your skills, and help you achieve your goals in real estate through regular meetings and collaboration with diverse members.

      Forming a mastermind group with like-minded individuals can significantly enhance your knowledge base and help you achieve your goals in real estate, whether it's sourcing or refurbishing properties. The key is to find people with diverse skill sets and a shared commitment to self-improvement. Regular meetings, whether in person or online, are essential to keep the group engaged and productive. To find potential members, consider reaching out to people you've met at networking events or through online communities, such as the Property Hub. Be clear about your expectations, including the frequency and format of meetings, when posting about your group on these platforms. With just a few like-minded individuals, you can create a valuable and supportive network to help you succeed in real estate.

    • Lead, establish purpose, and set ground rules for mastermind group successAppoint a leader, set a clear purpose, and establish ground rules like attendance and confidentiality for a successful mastermind group.

      To run a successful mastermind group, it's essential to appoint a leader, establish a clear purpose, and set ground rules. The leader ensures the group runs efficiently and keeps the meetings on track. The group should have a clear purpose, whether it's growing a portfolio or developing skills, to keep the group focused and motivated. Ground rules include attendance and confidentiality, which are crucial for the group's success. Regular attendance builds trust and commitment within the group, while confidentiality encourages openness and honesty during discussions. By following these steps, a mastermind group can effectively help its members grow and achieve their goals.

    • Structuring Mastermind Group Sessions for ProductivityBegin with updates, assign hot seat for challenges, discuss pre-agreed topics, and end with goal setting for next session.

      Effective structuring of mastermind group sessions is crucial for productive discussions and progress. The leader should begin each session with a brief update from members about their accomplishments since the last session, allowing for accountability. One member can then take the hot seat to discuss a challenge and seek advice from the group, ensuring they prepare in advance for clear explanation. Remaining time can be used for group discussions on pre-agreed topics. To end the session, members should share their goals for the next session, promoting accountability. The overall length of the session depends on the group size, aiming for 60-90 minutes for weekly, fortnightly, or monthly meetings, and potentially longer for quarterly gatherings.

    • Consistent communication and dedication in mastermind groupsMeet regularly, follow an agenda, stay engaged between meetings, review progress, and assess value to ensure group success

      Effective mastermind groups require consistent communication and dedication. Meetings should last around 60 to 90 minutes, and an agenda should be circulated beforehand to keep everyone focused and prepared. Absences should not be acceptable, and communication should continue between meetings through services like HipChat, Slack, or WhatsApp. Regular progress reviews are important for motivation and goal-setting, and mastermind groups can provide a fresh perspective on your own challenges. However, it's important to regularly assess the value of the group and make adjustments as needed to ensure it continues to benefit all members.

    • Learning and Networking through Property MastermindsMastermind groups offer valuable opportunities for learning, growing, and networking in the property industry. Starting one is an effort but can be done for free with resources from the Property Hub.

      Mastermind groups can be an effective way to learn, grow, and network in the property industry. The Property Hub Plus has seen great success with masterminds, both informal and formal, and the hosts encourage listeners who are enthusiastic about the concept to consider starting their own. While there is a lot of information provided in the episode, key points can be found in the show notes at the propertyhub.net/propertymastermind. For those who prefer a more structured approach, the Property Hub Summit is an option. The hosts emphasize that starting a mastermind group is an effort but can be done for free. A useful tool mentioned is CheckerPlus for Google Drive and CheckerPlus for Calendar, which can help users manage their schedules effectively. Overall, mastermind groups offer valuable opportunities for learning and networking, and the Property Hub provides resources and support for those interested in starting their own.

    • Improve productivity with the right toolsUse calendar apps for reminders and Checker Plus for quick Google Drive access to boost productivity.

      Utilizing the right tools and apps can significantly improve productivity and help manage daily tasks more effectively. The discussed calendar app offers customizable reminders to keep track of scheduled events, while Checker Plus for Google Drive provides quicker access to Google Drive files. Both are free and can be found in the show notes at thepropertyhub.net/propertymastermind. Additionally, leaving an Itunes review for the Rob and Rob podcast is encouraged, even if the process is less than ideal.
