Whether you are a seasoned property investor, entrepreneur, accidental landlord or just starting out on your property journey, networking is an invaluable resource that can provide you with a wealth of knowledge and experience. 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.
