This week The Robs are talking about what it takes for them to walk away from a deal.

Usually you’ll hear The Robs talking about taking action, but there are inevitability times when it’s better to walk away. There are certain deals that need a firm ‘no’.  

So what does it take for The Robs to walk away from a deal? And how should you decide whether a deal is really the right one for you? 

Here’s what Rob & Rob are going to cover on today’s episode:

• Price
• Fundamentals
• Rental potential 
• Neighbours 
• Leasehold houses
• Leases with doubling ground rent

This is an episode that you will benefit from no matter what stage of the property investment process you’re in. 

So hit that play button and let us know what you think of this week’s episode.

In the news this week, we’re looking at Wirral Waters, one of the biggest regeneration projects in the country. When it’s complete, the money invested into the area will top over £1 billion, if not more! 

Peel Group have teamed up with developer Urban Splash to bring a £55 million scheme to Wirral Waters. As you’ll know if you’ve listened to The Property Podcast over the past few months, The Robs are big fans of Urban Splash and everything they do - Tom Bloxham MBE even appeared on a few episodes.

This is a development of 337 modular homes, which are factory built and something that Urban Splash are renowned for. 

And in other news… it’s nearly Meetup week! These seem to come around so quickly, but next week we’re back! Some of our more popular locations like London are already sold out, but we do have some tickets left. So be quick and grab yours here. 

This week’s Hub Extra is something the whole team at Property Hub has been using over the past month. It’s a little app called Count.It which encourages you to get up and get fit with a little competitiveness thrown in for good measure. 

You can do this with your colleagues, friends or family and set up a league table to find out who’s the most active. So download the app, invite your competitors and get walking!
