Renting.  Dread, anxiety, late night phone calls, problem tenants, burst pipes, and relentless stress.

That's some of the negative connotations that make many in the property world think of chaos.

And that's where "Arthur" steps in.  To bring sanity to the chaos.

Marc Trup, the founder of Arthur Online explains how that's achieved...

In today's show, Richard dials into the busy and successful office of Arthur Online, to hear Marc's story.

From a surprising start in the world of dentistry, through some funny chat about featuring in a BT advert with one of the UK's first mobile phones, and deep into the story of how he solved many of the problems with his very own portfolio.

And how he has built a business that now solves those very same problems for many other people.

For the tenant and for the landlord.  For the property manager and for the large portfolio owner.  And even, for the farmer and the Uber driver!

Business - a 'commercial activity', 'an activity that someone is engaged in'

Those are some of the dictionary descriptions for what business is.

In one particular area of business, I personally came together with 3 other gentlemen: Paul McFadden, Barry McEwan, and Ian Brierley, to get involved in property investing many years ago.

Very quickly, and ever since that time, it became something much more than just business...

In this special video edition episode, that group of 4 business partners and dear friends, sat down to chat.

No agenda, no topics, and no preconceived ideas.

Different people, different locations around the UK, different ages, different backgrounds, and different starting points.

But all connected at the outset with a common goal and common intentions.

Very quickly, that path evolved into a relationship much more than just business.

The chat was immediately very open, very honest, and often funny.

The group discussed the ins and outs of the ventures, the problems and challenges faced, how decisions are made, how problems are solved, and how those basic business bonds have strengthened into a tight friendship.

Property, investment, business, outlooks, family, and life.

It's all covered in the chat.

And it's all very much more than just business...
