Property Education Makes All The Difference - with Alan Quinn

SUBSCRIBE AND FOLLOW FOR MORE VIDEO CONTENT - https://www.youtube.com/c/propertywealthsystem This week, Mark Winship talks to Alan Quinn, an experienced property investor who ignited his property career in the wake of a business sale, and who has built a diverse portfolio across many different strategies. Alan discusses the importance of property education, creative ways to finance property deals, and where to start on your own property investment journey. KEY TAKEAWAYS Wisdom can be taught, but it is far better absorbed if we learn by doing. On-the-job experience will always be far more effective than simply being told how things work. Be aware that certain strategies, such as subletting, can incur hidden costs. Make sure you consult those with knowledge on the subject, and prepare in an adequate fashion. There seems to be far less motivation to part with land than there does to part with property. Land seems to be easier to hold on to due to the low costs in simply doing nothing. Creating a solid, passive income, allows for a certain amount of freedom, not only in life in general, but also in investment terms. It can allow for deals that take far longer than usual, and which are not so reliant on instant profits. BEST MOMENTS 'It was pre-internet, and pre-buy-to-let' 'I fell into serviced accommodation and I can honestly say that it was a very well-considered strategy' 'It's about knowing what you don't want, as well as knowing what you do want' 'I can make cash purchases with using a loan from my pension fund, and buy the property within a month!'
