In this episode, I’m excited to catch you up on what’s been happening in my businesses over the past couple of months.

I’m a big believer in starting with the end in mind, and while setting goals and targets for your business is key, I think it’s just as important to have goals and dreams outside of business too—those are the real reasons we build businesses in the first place.

So, I’ll share some updates from my businesses, plus a peek into my personal life. I’ll talk about the challenges I’ve been facing with settling in new tenants for my HMOs, updates on my development projects, my thoughts on the autumn budget, and more!

In this episode, I want to talk about HMO maintenance. As an HMO investor and landlord, maintaining your properties is a big part of the job. It's something you’ll need to stay on top of for the long term.

Good maintenance is key to keeping your business—and your HMOs—profitable. If you let it slide, it can quickly lower the value of your portfolio and undo all the hard work you’ve done finding great deals and refurbishing properties.

I’ll also be sharing some insights from our community about common maintenance problems, why it’s important to budget for maintenance, and the best ways to manage it.

And, I’ll give you six of my best tips to help you save time, reduce costs, and manage maintenance more easily.

Topics covered in this episode:

• 02:54 Why Maintenance is So Important
• 10:48 Common Maintenance Issues in HMOs
• 16:36 Best Practices for Managing HMO Maintenance
• 27:09 The Importance of Long-Term Planning
