    Podcast Summary

    • Exclusive investment opportunity and interest rate updateListeners can invest in Rob and Rob's business, while the Bank of England raised rates but mortgage rates remain unchanged for most borrowers, and future rate hikes may be on hold.

      Rob and Rob on The Property Podcast discussed an exclusive investment opportunity for listeners to invest in their business, while also addressing the recent rise in interest rates in both the US and the UK. The Bank of England raised rates from 4% to 4.25%, but the markets didn't react significantly due to lowered expectations for future rises. Mortgage rates have not increased for most borrowers, and the next Bank of England meeting in six weeks may determine if this is the first rate hold in ten months. The hosts also hinted at the exciting developments in their business, which they've kept largely under wraps on the show. Overall, the episode touched on the economic climate, the impact of interest rates on borrowing, and the opportunity for listeners to join them in their business venture.

    • Join the Property Hub Community as a ShareholderThe Property Hub team is offering the opportunity for their community to invest and become shareholders in their business through crowdfunding, allowing individuals to own equity and be a part of their growth journey for as little as £100.

      The Property Hub team, who have been running successful businesses for over a decade, are now offering the opportunity for their community to invest and become shareholders in their business through crowdfunding. This is an exciting way for individuals, regardless of their financial status, to be a part of the growth and success of the Property Hub Group, which includes their Fintech portfolio business, Property Hub Invest, the magazine, the forum, and even this podcast. By investing as little as £100, individuals will have equity ownership in the business and be a part of the journey from the beginning. This approach is not unusual for larger companies, and the Property Hub team plans to explore other investment opportunities in the future. But for now, they want to give their community the chance to get in on the ground floor. To learn more and invest, visit propertyhub.net/crowdfund.

    • Crowdfunding Success: Portfolio and Property Hub Raises £1M in 2 DaysThe Portfolio and Property Hub, a business offering education, resources, and software solutions for property investors, surpassed their crowdfunding goal of £1M in just 2 days, mainly from their podcast community, and are bringing their community along as fellow shareholders.

      The Portfolio and Property Hub is giving its community the opportunity to invest and become shareholders in the business for as little as £100. This is significant because last year, during their first crowdfunding round, they surpassed their goal of raising £1,000,000 in just two days, with the majority of the investment coming from their dedicated podcast community before going public on the Seeders platform. With ambitious plans to transform the industry through their Fintech offerings, the founders prefer to bring their community along as fellow shareholders rather than giving a large stake to venture capitalists at this stage. The Portfolio Group, the overall business, consists of three main parts: Property Hub, which provides education and resources for property investors; Portfolio Landlord, a software solution for managing and financing buy-to-let properties; and Portfolio Wealth Management, which offers financial planning and investment services. The business generates revenue through a combination of subscription fees, commissions, and interest on loans.

    • Exploring Property Hub's Multi-Faceted Business ModelProperty Hub is a thriving business with an education brand, investment service, and innovative app, generating revenue while saving clients money and offering significant growth potential.

      Property Hub is a multi-faceted business that offers various services to help individuals build their property investment portfolios. The first component, Property Hub, is an education brand that includes a podcast, YouTube channel, newsletter, website, forum, and webinars. It doesn't generate revenue but is crucial for driving growth in other areas. The second component, Property Hub Invest, is a business that helps individuals develop their investment strategies and secure discounted properties. It generates revenue through fees but always saves clients more than they pay. The third component, Portfolio, is an app that allows individuals to invest in property through their phones. It's a new and innovative offering with significant growth potential. Property Hub has been successful for many years, and Portfolio is poised to change the game of property investment. Despite being recognized and nominated for awards alongside larger companies, Property Hub is just getting started and has massive potential for growth.

    • Portfolio's Progress: New Tech Team, App Redesign, and Expanded ReachPortfolio has made significant strides in the past year, building an in-house tech team, redesigning their app, expanding their reach, and aiming to make property investment accessible to all.

      Portfolio, a property investment platform, has made significant progress in the past year. They have built an in-house tech and product team, redesigned the app from the ground up, and grown their user base. Simultaneously, they have expanded their reach through a weekly column in the Sunday Times, Rob's book deal with Penguin Books, and growing podcast, YouTube channel, and email list. These achievements have put Portfolio in a strong position, with a larger audience and a capable team. Their goal is to make property investment accessible to more people by removing the barriers of time, hassle, and funds. Portfolio's turnover of £1,000,000 annually and nomination for banking awards reflect their ambitious plans to become the go-to platform for property investment.
