Kevin is joined by property investor and previous guest Sophia Botchway. Sophia gives an overview of her property investing journey, what she has been up to since her last episode with Kevin and shares why she is on the episode solo this time! She also shares tips for getting investors’ money to help you build your property portfolio and how to manage your time to create the lifestyle you want. KEY TAKEAWAYS  Sophia’s portfolio has more than doubled in the past 9 months. The team mostly focus on single lets by investing and refinancing using investors' money. Sophia and her daughter learnt to invest in their local area. They live in an expensive area but always find ways to add value. Networking is essential to find investors willing to give cash. They have the money but not the time and want to get better returns on their money. Your attitude and passion are two of the biggest things to help you to get investment, followed by knowledge. Sophia has set up a networking event in her local area as well as an estate agency! There is no such thing as not enough time, it’s all about priorities. You can make time if you want to. Sophia’s biggest difficulty is that there are more deals than she can handle so anyone who says they can’t find any deals aren’t looking hard enough.
