Peter's New DVD

Dear Reader,

In this series of interviews, for the first time ever on DVD, you'll hear from, and be introduced to, people with whom I've worked for many years, and who've offered my readers thousands of property deals. Between them, these people are responsible for a billion pounds worth of property sales, almost all of it discounted, so you can be pretty assured that they know what they're talking about.

Now it's your turn to learn from their success, and to turn that success to your advantage. This is millions of pounds worth of hard-won knowledge and experience for the price of a 3-set DVD. You can use it to copy their business models and branch out on your own, or take inspiration from their instruction to build and develop your own property portfolio and retire early. Or you even might just wish to buy a holiday property or second home for half the price you thought you'd have to pay, or twice as big.


Whether you choose to invest at home or abroad, there's something in these DVD interviews for everyone. I sincerely believe that you'll learn a great deal about property investment from watching them, be enlightened by the experience of others, and I hope and trust that you'll find them educational, inspiring, stimulating and at the same time entertaining.

The 12 interviewees I've chosen for this first set of DVDs are gurus in their field and all come from different backgrounds and all offer diverse and fascinating products. What is common to them all, however, is that each started out as a property investor in their own right, got hooked, and then progressed to helping others buy what they themselves were investing in. Everyone here believes whole-heartedly in what they are doing, and that comes shining through in their business practices. And they've all built hugely successful and thriving businesses around the principles of integrity, honesty, transparency, innovation and customer service excellence, which cause to create the most solid of foundations.

I sincerely hope you enjoy these interviews.

Thanks for watching.

WHAT'S ON DVD DISC TWO

The Mark & Virginia Sawyer Interview

Build a multi-million pound business from scratch. Develop a global brand. Innovate and be flexible. Achieve serious off-plan discounts for family, friends and colleagues. Create an international portfolio to retire on.

Mark and Virginia Sawyer own and run The Property Association, based in Manchester, northern England. It's a property club and brokerage which sources deals throughout the world before passing on discounts to its members, which is achieved by bulk buying. Quite simply, they have devised a system for ordinary people to acquire and own a portfolio of high-value, high-growth property, with instant equity built in. The Property Association has sourced over £400 million in discounted property from five continents. Over 20,000 people have joined them as free members and around 1,250 members have become buying Associates, resulting in over 3,000 individual properties being purchased at a discount of up to 30% and all within the last four years. Estimates suggest that The Property Association has achieved an overall group saving of £60 million over market value. Mostly, these deals are achieved on off-plan property with between 6 months and two years to go before completion. So not only do members buy at a discount, but also benefit from capital appreciation throughout the build process. The Property Association say that it is possible to achieve a profit of over £50,000 before a brick is laid. Learn how to do this for yourself, over and over again.



The Lee Harley, Steve Mahony & Martin Helm Interview

Achieving excellent customer service isn't difficult, when few others can be bothered. Innovative financing and small deposits allow everyone to build their property empire. Assiduous research results in a cascade of non-stop bargain opportunities, globally. The cheapest way to buy a holiday home.

Having spent their early lives in the construction industry, Viceroyinvest founders Steve Mahony and Lee Harley are now entirely focused on searching the world and negotiating great property investment deals for members of their investment club. Recognising that the property world can seem daunting and inaccessible to the beginner, they have made it their mission to simplify the investment process so that anyone can participate, hence their tag line ‘Property Investment for Everyone'. Buying as a collective allows them to negotiate discounts of up to 25% off the open market value, and to also focus on arranging innovative financing deals on exclusive developments throughout the world. Discounts are passed on to their investors in their entirety, but their service doesn't end when you agree to purchase a property; that's just the beginning. Viceroy Invest will assist you with legal details, financing, re-sales, lettings and furnishings. It's a total one-stop-shop approach. They associate themselves only with developers who share their commitment to quality, professionalism, courtesy and high levels of service, and they have rigorous due diligence procedures to ensure only the best deals are offered to their members. Many of their overseas deals require very small or even zero deposits, yet still manage to service the mortgage interest from rental income. Genuine ‘No money down' or ‘Low money down' deals that actually work!



The Alan Forsyth Interview

Achieve 100% financing for overseas property. Whole houses can be bought for as little as £15,000. Where to find cash-positive-from-Day-One UK investments time and time again. Developing a portfolio was never easier. Off-plan discounts in high capital growth locations.

Alan bought his first property, a four-bedroom house he rented out to fellow students, while studying Business and Accounting at Edinburgh University. Shortly after graduating he sold the house and, with the profits, purchased several properties in Leeds, cementing a career in property investment. Fast becoming one of the most popular investment property sourcing companies, Best Property Deals, originated by Alan Forsyth, concentrates on good value and good-yielding investment opportunities primarily located in hotspots in the North of England and Scotland.  All the properties sourced and marketed by Best Property Deals provide a net income for investors, that is: people receive back more in income per month than they pay out in mortgage and other costs, which obviously increases over time. The company's staff invest in most of the deals themselves, which adds confidence, and they take care of the management and can assist with the finance and the legal side. Very much a one-stop-shop approach. Overseas, they again concentrate on areas where they themselves invest, such as the Baltic States and Bulgaria. And you know they offer good deals, because they sell ... fast.

WHAT'S ON DVD DISC THREE

The Dominic Higgins Interview

Turn your property investment hobby into a full-time/part-time business. Never work again. How to become a property developer with no training. Retire early and live well on your global rental income. And how anyone can achieve this with no previous experience.

Dominic Higgins is an example of how to become a self-taught property investment expert without the need for a formal career in property or expensive weekend courses. Dominic is an ordinary bloke. And that's what makes his story so inspiring. He spent most of his working life in the music industry, promoting new bands for major music company Sony BMG. Dominic started investing in property as a hobby, a sideline, with money raised from re-mortgaging his home. At the same time, he met Peter Parfait at a Property Auction News (PAN) One Day Conference. Dom became a regular subscriber to Peter's PAN and Hot Property Alert newsletters and immersed himself in property investment-related books, internet sites, networking events and exhibitions. But property investing became more than a hobby for Dom. and he has since left his full-time employment and is now a property professional full-time. Not content with maintaining his portfolio of buy-to-let investments in the UK, managing his multiple off-plan purchases abroad and over-seeing his investments in various property syndicates, Dom has now ventured forth into development in his own right, focussing on the exciting market of Montenegro. Additionally, he works as a consultant to Property Investment & Advice, a UK company which sources high yielding properties for clients mainly in the north of England and which also allows investors to share in the developer's profits from various property projects mainly in East London. Learn how Dom turned a hobby in property into a full-time, highly rewarding and lucrative profession.



The Peter Jones Interview

Peter Jones is a Chartered Surveyor with over 25 years' experience in the property profession.

Starting with virtually none of his own money he built a multi-million pound portfolio, comprising some 50 properties, in just over 4 years. Peter is also the author of many best-selling books and reports on property investment.

The Howard Gooddie Interview

Why properties at auction represent such excellent value, which are the very best and how to spot them. Then ... how to beat the competition and snatch them. How to use an auctioneer to your best advantage. The ins and the outs, the ups and downs, the good and the bad and the ugly of the property auction game. But mostly, how to identify and bag a serious bargain.

Howard Gooddie, now retired, was head of auctions at Longden & Cook Commercial in Manchester. His father and grandfather were auctioneers before him and Howard grew up immersed in the world of auctions. During his boyhood Howard was a 'lotter' and clerk at many of his father's auctions, and his first property sale was in 1957 when he was 25. Legend has it that his audience consisted of only five people; of whom three were bank officials. In 1979 Howard returned to the auction world and started running quarterly auction sales, progressing to monthly sessions four years later. The firm's auction catalogue expanded rapidly when it started selling many lots on behalf of the British Rail Property Board. Novelty and innovation have always been part of Longden & Cook Commercial sales. The firm was the first to pioneer holding auctions simultaneously in London and Manchester; the first to show pictures electronically of the properties being offered, they introduced bidding paddles to property auctions, and were pioneers in placing their full catalogue on the Internet. Howard Gooddie has conducted over 200 composite auction sales and has offered nearly 12,500 lots, inspecting virtually all of the properties himself. He is a member of the auctioneering skills panel of the Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors, where he is also a Fellow, and holds a Master of Arts from Cambridge University. Howard has contributed to Peter's newsletter Property Auction News for many years, and has had published a book entitled Buying Bargains From Property Auctions, which has become a best-seller.
