"My property portfolio is all about building a very large retirement fund, if the truth be known! I´ve been investing for five years this Christmas and my first one has already gone up by over 200%. My whole portfolio is worth about... [pause for some maths] .. call it £1.1million. Blimey - that´s quite impressive! It´s the first time I´ve added it all up!"
"It took some balls to do the first one but I always knew it was the way forward. The most important thing is to choose the right area - and that´s where 1stPropertyInvestment comes in. On my first one, it took me three months to do the research by myself, so knowing that 1stPropertyInvestment do it all for you is great. I´ve got complete confidence in them because, even though I´m quite an experienced investor, I see what Andy [Managing Director] has done for himself - how he built his own portfolio - and it really gives me confidence. I can see that I have something to learn."
"I?ve bought two properties through them so far - the first one of which was in an area I?d already identified as really promising. Everyone at 1stPropertyInvestment is always really helpful. They understand it´s about investing, and that it´s my money I´m using, so it´s never about pushing for a sale. I´ve recommended them to several of my friends, one of whom bought five properties! I think between all of us we´ve bought over ten in the last year or so... and there´s more in the pipeline!"
