For this weeks episode, we revisit one of our most popular topics: rent-vesting. This increasingly popular strategy is the reason why so many first-time-buyers have been able to get onto the property ladder and start to build their property portfolio without having to compromise their lifestyle. To discuss that further, I am joined by Aaron Best, the member experience director at The Property Mentors.
It's time for another FAQ episode with our investment expert, Luke Harris. This week, the mentors from The Property Mentors each put forward a question that they are commonly asked themselves.

When you visit your doctor, do you ask them for a discount? What about your dentist? Probably not, because you know that a lesser fee means lesser quality service.

Today, I am joined by the Director of Property Management at The Property Mentors, Renee Whitehouse, to talk about how discounting services such as property management can lead to all kinds of avoidable problems.
