Where has the time gone??

I cannot believe it's the end of October already, where has the time gone?

Here's an update of my property journey so far:

My property business started in October 2010. From renovating an Victorian cottage house and now selling sites for development, I've been extremely privileged. Thank you for the congrats of 4 years!

Slowly but surely I am building up my business and I can't wait for the future!

I started sourcing great sites in February, well it was actually the 31st January 2014, but it seems so much longer then that! It took time sussing out the market and knowing the right sellers but I soon got the hang of it. For the first few months I was up util 4-5am putting the sites together. It was tiring!

Since April, I've been averaging sales of 1-2 sites a month- whether it's land or pubs I get them sold. Each month I find genuine sellers who are wanting to sell. I often meet new and different characters which is pretty intriguing. Some sites receive offers straight away yet some takes a matter of time.

I am currently putting new small to medium projects together- gradually building up future sites with excitement. I have targets set and I'm hoping to achieve them by 2015. I do not give up and never will. I have different ventures in mind and starting to put them together.

You can continue my journey with me by following me on Twitter, just click on link on the left hand side.

If you're a woman in business then get in touch. One thing I must do is more meet ups!

Also, to all my present contacts and new contacts, get in touch as there are some great sites coming up in Kent and North London.

Just to let you know, I have access to some of the most prestige homes in London too. Serious buyer's only, however, and if you're on a short term stay in London because of a business trip then just get in touch. I have great accommodation for you!

All best in your property journey!

As you know I have started to add my favorite Home of the month time! Amazing views over London!

This amazing penthouse over looks the shard. 

Selling sites and busy times

Hi Everyone!


Where has the time gone? My update is finally here!

Since posting my last property journey update, I have been extremely busy. I have sold some great sites over the past two months and things are definitely looking up. If you are new to my property blog then take a look at how I first started my journey.

I admit it has been tough and can be stressful at times but it's all worth it. I never give up on what I want. That would be too easy!


Sites I have sold range from small sites to acres of land. Ranging from workshops, shops, yards, old homes, pubs, nightclubs and very large pieces of lands.

Every month I send out my list of sites to my buyers so they can see if any sites suit their needs. As time moves on I hope to build more honest, future projects! 

If you're one of those buyers then just get in touch and snap up my sites quick. All my sellers are genuine and want to sell their land as soon as possible. 

Stay tuned and keep eye out for my future sites. You can email me for the latest list at: jabrant70@gmail.com

I promise I will update you soon on my property journey.

Exciting times are ahead so dont go anywhere!

About time!

Hi everyone!


Again I have been busy working hard. I keep meaning to keep up my writing about my journey in the property world, so here I am.

To start with, I have accumulated some great contacts and I'm doing pretty well with projects on the go and new sales. If you have read my blog from the beginning then you would know that I started on my own in 2010 renovating old shell properties to fresh new homes. Then I started  sourcing sites in February 2014. I love meeting new buyers and sellers and finding about different people.

If you're a new contact then you can read my journey from the beginning. It was a long one! I make it clear that  I am straight forward and do the best I can.

I spend a lot of time with my sellers and buyers building up a relationship on trust, honesty and loyalty. Unfortunately. there are some people that are neither which I have learnt along the way. What these businessmen dont realise is that it will come back to them eventually one day. We all live in a very small world! Remember!

To me, keeping up communication with my clients is so important. I either let my buyers do the deals or I do them for them. Most buyers want to do the deals themselves and understandably so. What matters is that I listen to what they want and see through the deal from the start to finish!

I have also built up a great team of tradesman so if you ever need a job done then just get in touch. Remember, you can email me at: jabrant70@gmail.com

If you, or you know someone, who is looking for an amazing luxury house in Belgravia then let me know. I met a developer that started off like me and now develops amazing properties using the best and finest craftsmanship. You need to visit to know. But this is for only private and serious buyers! I have a selection of many prestigious homes for sale.

Working as hard as ever!

Hi everyone!

I hope all is going well for you and you had an excellent Easter. Just a quick blog post to remind you that I am working as hard as ever. I did really well last month and sold more projects then I ever have. I love my job- there is never a dull moment. It's hard work and long hours but it's definitely worth it. I never imagined it would be easy as that would be boring!

Networking is time well spent. I definitely recommend going to meetings, they are worth it. You learn a lot about how to manage your time and outlook to keep you and your business healthy. Meeting different business people and new contacts is helpful for both you and your business. The more you meet the more you will grow in confidence.

I have had to learn along the way but believe it or not I do smile or even laugh at myself sometimes. At the end of the day, you have too!

Hi everyone!

Sorry it's been awhile updating my blog. I have been extremely busy sourcing new sites and property for my new clients.

I have had a huge interest and and am connecting my seller's to my buyer's.

I have got alot of properties in central London and SouthEast please see attached or send me your email address so I can send to you, some are under way with new projects. But am always getting new sites too!

Sourcing is exciting aswell as hard work! I am constantly looking for sites and properties that need a lot of work, so if any one has info pass to me at jabrant70@gmail.com confidential.

My clients are looking for central London and Borders plus around the UK. I have pubs projects and large sites upto 19 acres. I am building strong relationships with my buyer's and Seller's and all my clients details are strictly confidential!

Please get in touch with me if you need big projects as I do have the sites and homes.

Direct selling and buying is becoming more popular with sellers so to get direct buyer's with no hold ups pure buying! Mainly also clients want to keep private too, so with this it is much faster and easier to sell.

I am also building great relationship with agents too.

To all new investor's if it be new development's or wanting residential homes keep checking my blog as I will be adding amazing properties.

One of my contact is renovating amaizing properties in Chelsea and Knightsbridge, see latest project and also to side the main website.

Hi Property People!



I have not blogged for awhile so about time to let you know my next journey.

I have been in the property field for 3 and half years now and I am learning new experiences everyday. I have spent hours in ice cold rooms in snowy conditions, Knocking down walls, putting new walls up, filling large holes in walls, tiling and labour work. I have worked alongside with my builders. Of course fetching coffees too, oh yes! I know you are laughing but it is true just ask one of my guys. The best part has been painting all my properties and adding finishing touches and being proud of turning a unlivable cold, ugly shell of a house and flats to a great standard fresh properties. 

I have come through some scrapes and bruises! But I love what I do.

I am with LinkedIn and making new contacts and clients. I have a few early projects on the way which is exciting and building relationships with both Seller's/Agents and of course buyer's!

If you do not know me well I have linked my letting agent Sunny who owns Ashton Reeds use to be Bexletts in Bexley Kent, he deals with all new properties I own. He can vouch for me I hope! Joking he will. He is also a multi-landlord like me.

Also I will be adding properties and Land for sale so please take a look as they are amazing! I will give details to genuine buyers who get in touch with me.

I will be adding properties I have available and again get in touch with me if you see a property you like!

Keep networking as it is invaluable. I have learnt so much and teaching ones that are new by just reading my journey!

keep coming back and chat soon!!

Enjoy my blogging

Property Network meetings.

Hi Everyone



I still want to know and learn more and build my business up. 

I Went to a investors network meeting which is a great way to meet likewise people.

For anyone going into property I would urge you to go to one of these meetings. There are a lot around the country. The one I went to is PIN Property Investors Network in Dartford Kent. There are loads another all over.Everyone was friendly and welcoming. It helps to build contacts that are in the property field whether it is in lettings/estate agent, property insurance to landlord/property developers and investors. It opens your eyes and you can learn a lot from others. We are all still learning. 

These meetings are a great source to interact and meet new potential property associates and investors. Its a great working relationship. Go to one! 

At the end of the day we all want to be successful. Where there is a will there is a way.

Investors

How was your first day back to work, daunting?

Moving on up is hard but I always believe my moto where there is a will there is a way! I always think that. 

My aim is to do as many properties as possible, if you are interested in the property market get in touch. I am always looking for people to invest. See my contact page.

I would like to know your views on property investment and if you prefer property to shares or shares to property. Who do you trust the most with your money?

My money is where I want it. Yes there is risks. But there are risks in any investment right??

What risks have you taken and have they worked? 

Hi Everyone


All back to business tomorrow!


I am looking at getting another property to add to my portfolio. I would like to hear from investors/landlords. 

I'd like to share experiences and obstacles! 

I know people that have bought properties as its current value and then when properties crashed they lost out. Buy BMV (Below market value). Where to add angle and potential is key. I like to add value always!

Don't forget the rates are going to rise soon! Be prepared get your mortgages changed so as fixed rate. Get advice and see your mortgage adviser.

Happy New Year to all!
