In today's show, we do something a little bit different and special when we bring two highly impressive people into the Property Pros Spotlight...husband and wife team: Barry-John & Leanne Corr
-----
We've had the Corrs on the show a while ago, but what they've been doing over the last year in particular, how their business has exploded, and the amount of people that they're helping, is something you've got to see and hear about.
So we sat the lovely Corrs in the studio and captured their story: their family life; their decisions to grow a business and leave employment; how they both went through Property Protege to bring their partnership closer; the ups and downs of the property world; the successes and challenges; their projects and developments; and the huge group of people that they're helping and impacting around them.
We then headed out on the road to actually visit and film inside just some of the projects they have on the go at the moment.
Properties needing a lot of love and attention, homeowners and buyers needing assistance, conversions and developments, and a chance to let you take a look behind the curtain of the reality of property development and investing.
Completely open and transparent as ever, the Barry-John and Leanne shared every part of their story.
How they bring up their kids around money and work, how they work together as a partnership, how they work with their power team around them, the decisions and setbacks they've faced, the moments of appreciation when they look back at what they've managed to achieve; everything!
It's a fantastic show with a fantastic couple.
Make sure you watch the video version to fully see and hear all that's going on, and take the tour through some of their live projects...
In today's show, Richard sits down with Ales Spetic, the CEO and Co-Founder of Klevio.
Viewers and listeners who know all about the endless headaches in their home, office, and business life with doors, locks and keys, are going to love today's show and hearing how Klevio can clear those headaches...
-----
As a serial entrepreneur, Ales spotted a technical solution to an age-old problem in the property world: having to deal with locks and keys...
> The office manager with a team of changing staff and countless keys
> The short-term-let landlord with a relentless stream of customers, quick turnarounds, cleaning staff, and maintenance team all looking for access to the same place
> The long-term-let landlord dealing with security issues around previous tenants leaving, possible lock changes, missing keys, refurb/decorating crews, and new tenants moving in
> Being away from your home or business when a delivery driver turns up
> Or even the 3,000 year-old-problem of the teenager who constantly loses their home key!
Klevio has the tech and the intelligence to solve all of those problems...
In today's show, Richard sits down with Chris Wood from Portolio.
With the tagline of being "The Landlord's Estate Agent", Portolio has a business model and provides a service that can remove a lot of headaches for both Landlords and Investors...
-----
Chris chats freely and openly about his own career path and love affair with property.
He explains the inspirational morning that the whole idea of Portolio came about.
Chris explains how his entrepreneurial spirit then took that idea into action. Connections, networking, relationships, solving others' problems, experimenting and testing, acting as the hub between different parties with different needs and issues, and bringing Portolio to life and great success with business partner Ross MacDonald.
For the landlord looking to sell their tenanted property at a good price, for the investor looking to purchase a property with cashflow from Day 1, for the tenant hoping to carry on living in their home, and for the letting agent and solicitor who want the whole changeover handled in a highly professional and reassuring manner, Portolio is in the middle making it all happen...
