Rob Moore: Hardest Property Challenges, Favourite Property Strategies & Mindset Hacks

In this episode of the Progressive Property Podcast, Kevin McDonnell interviews Disruptive Entrepreneur and Progressive Property Co-founder, Rob Moore.   Tune in today to hear them discuss the UK’s biggest property event of the year, what you’ll learn and why you should attend.  KEY TAKEAWAYS  What’s your favourite property investment strategy? My personal favourite property investing strategy is commercial conversion, because that's what we do and that works for us, because it works well in Peterborough, there are good deals that need planning and we've worked out how to get the planning and we're doing one that's 85,000 square foot that could be up to 160 units. No money down is a way of buying, rent to rent is a way of buying, a lot of people confuse strategies, they think they’re going to do rent to rent or no money down or lease options, but actually no, what you're doing is a way of buying a property. Rent to rent is just circumventing needing a deposit, lease options are circumventing needing a deposit, we use all of those strategies within the strategy of commercial conversion.  How many years have you been doing property now? December 15, 2005, was the day my life changed. The last week of that year, I met Mark up my very first property networking event and in February 2006, I started my property investing career properly working in a property company and buying with Mark. That's 13 years nearly.   When was the first super conference? 2010 was our first really big event, there's a lot of people that start property training, who never really got much property and that's how progressive is different. The critics say there are too many people out there who teach but haven't done and maybe there are some, but how we're different is every strategy that we teach, we've done.  Why did you stop doing the super conference?  Those events got more and more expensive, like hundreds of thousands of pounds, this super conference will cost us 500 grand, half a million quid to run an event. The bigger the room, the more expensive they get. That was one thing. The second thing was we started to think if there's a cheap strike if there's a bomb scare if something goes wrong and three to six months of our marketing and our revenue are based on this one event, massive risk. The third thing was I like connecting with people, I'd prefer to speak to 100 people or 200 people than in 1400. I'm better in a smaller room. Every speaker loves the thought of the big stage, but I started to feel more disconnected. We bought our own training sweet over there, what's the point in going into massive events in London when you can do in smaller events here.  What’s the main thing you're sort of excited about a product?  One of them is creating multiple streams of income. We want to teach you how to create multiple streams of income.  The second thing is we wanted the quickest cash flow strategies.   What is the reason you give too much content without stopping? My Why is trying to earn respect and love from people and that just won't go away, I love property and I love business. Attend the 10X super conference and learn to be the best.  BEST MOMENTS  “The harder my challenges are, the more motivated I am.”  “All the property strategies that we teach work, otherwise it wouldn't teach them.”  “I did single let so many years, but when you've done loads of them, you kind of hunger to scale up and your time isn't worth just doing a single that when you can do bigger stuff.”  “I don’t want people to look at me and say, “Rob is doing big commercial conversions, that's what I'm going to do.” if they haven't done a single let yet.”  “There are too many people out there who teach but haven't done”  “I never teach anything unless I've done it.”  “You can learn something from everyone if you stay humble enough to look at someone.”  “To know not to do is not to know.”   “The easiest person to lie to is you.”  “It’s okay to fail and it's best to fail small and fast.”  “Mindset skill set strategy and tactics.”  VALUABLE RESOURCES  https://robmoore.com/  https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk/  ABOUT THE HOST  Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.
