The Hardcore Property Podcast, with Paul McFadden

I was happy sweeping up, getting coffee, then I learned more, and started to work up. I always knew Property was for me. After starting my portfolio, I knew It was time to go full time. That leap, is hard, I know that. Leaving a secure job, to follow your dream? Isn't easy. But if you never try...you'll never know.

If you've ever considered getting started in Property, I want to invite you to come meet me and my team IN-PERSON. It's been 18 long months since we last ran a Property Jumpstart Live. What is it? This is the workshop I wished existed when I got started in Property. Let me tell you where I was at when I got started at 19... I had no money to invest. I had terrible credit. I had no contacts within Property. I had no knowledge of the industry. I had zero experience of Property, except working on site. What I did have... The awareness that Property could provide me the escape to the life I so desperately wanted out of. The knowledge that most of the top business people in the world, invest their money into Property. The hunger and drive to succeed. Unfortunately, there wasn't anything like Property Jumpstart available when I was starting out. I had to learn the hard way, through unnecessary risks, mistakes, failures and a whole lot of pain. I didn't want that for others looking to get started. So I took everything that I learned over 12+ years in the game and created a simple, easy-to-follow path for others looking to get started. That path is laid out at Property Jumpstart Live. What we cover on the 1-Day Workshop... How you can get started in Property, regardless of your circumstances. How you can become financially free in Property inside 2021. How to build a successful Property business that will serve you for years to come. The Investment Strategies that work today and will get you quick cashflow. How you can get started in Property with none of your own money. So whether you're just looking at the options available to you, if you want to go-full-time in Property or you're looking to build long-term wealth, I'll talk you through it.

What do Elon Musk, Jeff Bezos and Donald Trump have in common? Better yet, what do they have in common with you..? We all have the same amount of hours in the day.

We all have an incredible opportunity within our grasp right now. Although our first instinct during a recession is to contract and shy away from the unknown, we must fight against this and recognise the possibilities open to us. All it takes is a change of perspective.

All it takes is a little observation and out of the box thinking...

With networking being an impossibility at the moment. We all know where we need to step up... In our social media efforts. If you've not been active online... Chances are...

Game sales have risen 40-60% since lockdown. Waste of valuable time, or can we learn from gamers..? Here's what gamers know about business that most entrepreneurs don't... You need to level up in your personal capacity. If you don't improve, moment to moment... You don't get to the next level. In gaming, the only way to level up is through... - Constant and never-ending improvement. - Relentless action. - Unquestionable FOCUS. - Tapping into support. The attributes required to play at a high level in GAMING... Are the same attributes you'll find in business. At least among those smart enough to have applied them. In this video, I talk about why gamifying your life might be the key to taking your business to the next level...

Want to get rich quick? Take your chances with the lottery. If you want to build long term wealth... You need to put in the work. Here's the thing... Say you find some get rich quick scheme that works. You get a windfall of money. - You've not developed your wealth mindset yet. - You don't know how to make that money work for you. - You dont have the experience in handling it well. You'll lose the money as fast as you make it. Building true wealth takes time, and hard work. You'll only earn what you're ready to. The experience you gain along the way... Will ensure you keep it and grow.

World class entrepreneurs delegate 90% of their tasks. They spend ALL of THEIR time.... On tasks that require their unique abilities. It's easy to spend your time being busy. What's hard is having the discipline of focus... To ONLY do what you do BEST. Time is your most valuable resource. Here's some insights on how to use it well...

Often, my best clients are those who need it least. They win, for one specific reason; they DIDN'T try to get rich quick. They take their time. They tick the boxes daily. They do the work. They make the right choices, and they pull the trigger. Whereas the others, those who don't listen well, and burst out of the gates attempting to get rich quick in Property. They approach it with the wrong mindset. They look for what they can take, not give. They look for the quick buck. They jump from shiny object to shiny object. Sad to see. If you truly want to be successful in Property, let's start with getting your mindset in check...

Earlier this week I was invited to appear on the This Week In Property podcast to discuss recent events and how this affects property businesses. Labeled a special 'emergency podcast' I was brought on as a special guest to discuss the current climate that we face as people, family members, business owners, and investors. I hope this is of help to many of you out there with concerns. Listen to this weeks episode to find out... > how the very real economic impacts from this health pandemic are NOT the actual global recession that I feel is still to come. > the lessons behind thinking of the 'economic tides' being out and being in, and how they relate to the state of our business. > how the key areas of Mindset and Due Diligence are what can help you thrive and survive in these times of uncertainty. > how the current Government stimulus packages are required in the short-term but also damaging for the long-term.

My inbox has been flooded with messages in the last week. "Paul, what's the best thing to do right now..?" The impact of Coronavirus on businesses in undeniable.

Let's talk how to overcome the noise, take control, become stronger and ride the wave.

In today's episode, I've got Ellie McKay. This is quite an exciting podcast... Because I didn't even know it was going to be one.

To learn about some of the unbelievable things she's building with her partner Mark. To learn of the biggest wins and losses... And the lessons learned from it. We even go deep about raising a family and the impact of a positive driven mindset There are a few other cheeky questions in there which I think you're going to enjoy and be entertained by.

You are the problem in your property business. If you want it to grow, replace yourself, without ACTUALLY replacing yourself :) As I've said before: If you want to grow, find someone further down the line. Someone with the knowledge you want. Take what you can from them, and apply. Until you are THAT person. Then it's your responsibility to teach others. Bring people into your business. Give them your skills. Teach them what you know. Effectively replacing yourself... So, you can focus on the bigger picture.

"Paul, how many hours should I set aside to build my property business?" Great question from a viewer, but it's not the main question to be asked. What you need to ask yourself is: "What do I want to get out of this?" After all, you only get out what you put in. In today's podcast, we'll talk about how you use the time you have to work on your Property business is more important than the hours you put in, and where your focus should be if you want it to be a success.

There's a part of you that is killing your business. Reflecting on my career... The times when I've not been performing at my best... When the doubt creeps in... When I question myself...

In today's podcast we'll talk about how boredom could be killing your business and how you can adapt your mindset to overcome it.

It couldn't be simpler to make your first £1000 in Property. You don't even need to do a single deal... Most Property investment strategies require funds to get started.

People in Property often struggle to expand due to lack of cash. Funny thing is they may have access to more than they think. By refinancing the properties you have, you can get get a small pot of cash. Allowing you to get involved in multiple other deals. In this podcast, I talk about refinancing properties the right way and how to avoid the most common mistakes.
