It’s an opportunity to meet fascinating people, share experiences and build genuine working relationships and friendships in a relaxed and inclusive environment

The positive impacts of networking in business are widely known and go further than generating referrals and increasing your connections. Heard of the saying ‘your network is your net-worth?’ Spending time with like-minded, positive and successful people increases your drive and can motivate when you need it most. Networking can help to build confidence as it pushes you to speak to the others, it provides a space where business owners can share their knowledge and become known as experts in their field, gaining satisfaction from helping others as well as gaining opportunities for new JV partnerships, deals and investments.

Every month Brentwood PPN will have different speakers with specialist knowledge in property and succeeding in business. You will have the opportunity to meet them and other industry experts in the room, giving you insights that will enable you to avoid some costly mistakes in your journey. It’s not all just about learning though, we are creating a community where you can get connected and access the group at any time so you don’t feel like you are doing it all on your own.

Sharon has lived and worked in Essex since 1985.

She is a mum of two daughters and started to learn how to invest in property in 2017.

Since 2017, Sharon has attended a range of training programmes with Progressive and built up a buy-to-let portfolio with her husband which, along with her pension, has enabled her to fund her chosen lifestyle.

We are Wendy and Simon Lee, and we have been investing in property for over 30 years. We started life living in a 1 bedroom flat which we rented from the local authority. We went on to buy that flat and continued to build a property portfolio of BTL's and HMO's, using the BRRR method. Having built up a multimillion pound portfolio we didn't want to grow it any further, and decided that flipping property was the way to go. We've never looked back!

We have developed a system for flipping property that we follow and found that we have had great success with it. Every property renovation has taught us to hone and improve our skills. We are achieving an average 30% return on our investment. Our flips sell fast, often to the first viewers, or within the first few weeks of marketing and sometimes over the asking price.

As an example over the last 14 months we've flipped 3 properties and combined they have made a profit of £201,000 with one of them alone giving us a £98,000 profit (49% ROI)

We're passionate about what we do and are keen to help others do the same. These include friends and family. One of our mentees has followed our model and purchased a property below market value, once completed he will have an expected profit of £60,000 Another has bought a property following our structure and is set to gain £100,000 profit.

We find that many people look at flipping from the completely wrong angle, not looking at the long term benefits boosting both

income and portfolio.
