#229You've probably heard lots of people in UK Property talking about creative strategies such as Vendor Finance, Control Now Buy Later or Exchange with Delayed Completion.Maybe you're a little sceptical about the true potential of these lesser known property tools, particularly as an overseas, remote investor. In this week's show,, I talk to Motiul Islam a seasoned property investor with over 20 years of experience, known for his transparency, willingness to share knowledge, and problem-solving approach to property investment.Motiul takes us through a deal he's doing in Doncaster which involves buying a multi-unit freehold block, title splitting, planning gain, exchange with delayed completion and commercial finance.During the episode, among other things, we discuss:Creative Property Strategies: vendor finance, exchange with delayed completion and purchase lease options.Investing in London vs. the North: Motiul explains why traditional buy-to-let doesn't work well in London due to low yields / high costs, but “forcing” capital appreciation through developments can be lucrative down south.Adding Value in Property Deals: Side extensions, loft conversions, and title splits to add value and increase returns in more expensive regions.Cost Barriers in London Development: Financial hurdles facing small developers including high material/labour costs, Stamp Duty, Community Infrastructure Levy (CIL), and Section 106 (affordable housing) contributions.Finding Property Deals through Networking: Networking as the primary way to source deals, with referrals, joint ventures, and people bringing opportunities.Title Splitting Example: Motiul breaks down a real-life deal in Doncaster, where a block of flats was purchased on an Exchange with Delayed Completion with plans for title splitting, refurbishments, and lease creation—resulting in significant uplift in property value.Lease Options & Vendor Finance Realities: Misconceptions about these strategies. They are always about solving the vendor's problem—not quick, easy fixes for investors.Remote Investing as an Expat: How feasible these strategies are for remote investors, including the importance of viewing properties (personally or via trusted contacts/companies).Tenant Issues & Evictions: Motiul shares a challenging experience with a problematic tenant in a London HMO and the eviction process, emphasizing the unpredictable, human side of property management.Networking & Mindset Advice: not just to find deals but to learn, support others, and solve problems.I'd Like Help With Setting My GoalsLeave a reviewJoin our WhatsApp group / access 37 Question Due Diligence Checklist / 23 Step Guide to Buying Property at AuctionInstagramExclusive Property Engine discounts (Code: EXPAT)Starter package: 30 day trialPro package 30 day trial, then 3 months 1/2 price, Ultimate package, 1/2 price 3 monthsKeywordsUK property, UK property investment, London property investment, creative property investing, vendor finance UK, purchase lease options UK, exchange with delayed completion, adding value property, title splitting, expat property investors, UK buy-to-let, networking UK property, property strategies UK, landlord advice UK, problem tenants UK, PPN Stratford, investing in London property

Darryl McLellan's recent retirement announcement caught a few racing mates by surprise. It was well known that the 54 year old was still enjoying his riding and happy to travel big mileage if the mounts were there. He aggravated an old shoulder problem in an accident at Port Macquarie last December which sidelined him for five months. After just 22 rides on the comeback trail he knew the troublesome shoulder was destined to bring the curtain down on his very successful career. “Digger” is still dealing with the frustration of having to stop before he was ready, but kindly consented to join us on the podcast. The veteran jockey says he's having fresh scans currently to determine the long range future of a shoulder he injured initially in 2009. He takes us back to a Sunday meeting at Port Macquarie in late December when a fall from a “bucking bronco” aggravated a fifteen year old injury. Darryl reflects on his very first job as an apprentice spray painter. Workmates constantly encouraged him to consider a future as a jockey. He looks back on his time with top Muswellbrook trainer Pat Farrell who enjoyed a reputation as a master tutor of junior riders. Darryl says he hadn't ridden a horse when his apprenticeship began, but was riding in barrier trials after four months. He remembers his first race ride at Quirindi and his first winning ride at Kembla Grange. He acknowledges the first better than average horse he got to ride. McLellan looks back on the thrill of winning the 1992/93 Sydney apprentices premiership. He says his nickname “Digger” evolved during his spray painting apprenticeship and has never left him. Darryl talks of the tremendous advantage he had over most jockeys by being able to ride at the limit weight. That ability brought him the ride on Magic Of Money in the 1995 Galaxy, his first Gr 1 success. He remembers his ride on the same horse in the Doomben $10,000. He thought he was on a winner approaching the hometurn. In the same year he was thrilled when Bart Cummings got him to ride a horse at a Saturday Newcastle meeting. How could he have known what Saintly was to achieve over the next 18 months. “Digger's” ability to ride light got him on Iron Horse in a very strong Epsom of 1996. He ran third to a couple of talented horses. He looks back on an approach by John Hawkes seeking his services for Lease in the Doncaster. Take Sunline out and he wins the famous Gr 1 event. The veteran hasn't forgotten his 2000 Newcastle Cup win on Silent Impact. He says he's never seen a bigger crowd at the Broadmeadow Racecourse. “Digger” values the bragging rights he derived when he won the 2001 Warwick Stakes on Lonhro. It was his one and only ride on the great horse. He looks back on his Chairman's Hcp/Sydney Cup double on the Neville McBurney trained Henderson Bay. Darryl fondly remembers an association with the hugely talented Court Command. One of several wins was the 2006 Golden Rose before the race was elevated to Gr 1 status. He remembers the barrier trial fall at Newcastle which was the catalyst for his longtime shoulder issues. He resumed about 8 months later only to be involved in another fall on the same track, aggravating the old injury. “Digger” talks about a five year hiatus and the sudden urge to resurrect his riding career. He reflects on the five years since his return to the riding ranks. Opportunities haven't been as plentiful, but he's enjoyed every moment.

Send us a textSeries 2 - Episode A TikTok star roofer from Doncaster, England faced losing his foot after it went completely numb playing in the snow with his 12-year-old son.Terry Hill is well-known in the city for his alter-ego 'Donny Knight'. He is remembered for dressing up in a suit of armour during an England match and jumping off a bus shelter and amassed thousands of followers on TikTok as Donny_Knight, a roofer who travels the world and shares his experiences. But now he has been forced to quit his job and stop travelling after a completely life-changing ordeal prompted by his foot going numb while playing in the snow in January.Terry, 59, said: "I had just come back from a brilliant few months of travelling all over the world From Egypt to Thailand and more, and I decided to stay home for a while to celebrate Christmas with my family. “We had snow for two days in January so I thought I would take my son and go sledging. We got up to the hill and I remember struggling to walk up it and then I couldn't feel my feet when we got home."I experienced this pain a while ago on a family holiday and over the last few years, I have found it hard to walk but it had been fine for a while." Worried, Terry booked an appointment to see his GP who told him he needed to go to hospital. Terry went the next day and within 20 minutes of him explaining how his feet were numb, he was seen by the doctors.There, they told him he was at risk of losing his left foot and was sent for a CAT scan in order to establish exactly what was going on.To Terry's shock, the numb feet were actually a symptom of him having blocked arteries and he needed urgent heart surgery - specifically, an Aorto-Bifemoral Bypass Surgery."This is a rare operation that is only done for five people a year," said Terry.Within three weeks, Terry went under the knife and had seven stents put into the top of this leg. Soon, Terry was feeling back to his usual self but it didn't last long.He soon began to feel in pain again and became out of breath if he talked too much. He was so weak he says he could barely move.Now Terry has been forced to give up working and travelling and has made the reluctant decision to reach out to the city for help.Listen to Terry's un-censored story and how Terry is today post operation.#HeartTransplant#eatingdisorder#RareCondition#HealthJourney#LifeChangingDiagnosis#MentalHealth#Vulnerability#SelfCompassion#PostTraumaticGrowth#MedicalMiracle#BBCSports#Inspiration#Cardiology#Surgery#Podcast#Healthcare#HeartHealth#MedicalBreakthrough#EmotionalJourney#SupportSystem#HealthcareHeroes#PatientStories#CardiologyCare#MedicalJourney#LifeLessons#MentalWellness#HealthAwareness#InspirationalTalk#LivingWithIllness#RareDiseaseAwareness#SharingIsCaring#MedicalSupport#BBCReporter#HeartDisease#PodcastInterview#HealthTalk#Empowerment#Wellbeing#HealthPodcast#DNAwww.whostomanddick.comCheck out our website at www.whostomanddick.com

Reform is flirting with traditional Labour support - workers and union members. Ten local authorities are now controlled by Reform - including Doncaster, taken from Labour - plus three mayoralties and a new MP. After Nigel Farage's almost unbelievable success in local elections last week, is this the strategy to take him all the way to Downing Street? Niall Paterson is joined by our political correspondent Liz Bates, and reporter Alexandra Rogers, to unpick what Reform's flirtations mean for Labour. Producer: Soila Apparicio Editor: Philly Beaumont
Today, Reform have won the Runcorn and Helsby by-election by just six votes - one of the closest parliamentary elections ever. Sarah Pochin overturned Labour's large majority to become Reform's fifth MP after a recount. Elsewhere, Reform wins its first mayoral election in Greater Lincolnshire, and Labour narrowly holds three mayoral races in North Tyneside, the West of England, and Doncaster - with Reform second in all three. This is still an emerging picture, with plenty more results to come.Adam is joined by Chris Mason, Laura Kuenssberg - as well as Richard Fuller from the Conservatives, Luke Pollard from Labour, Adrian Ramsay from the Greens and Daisy Cooper from the Lib Dems.

Votes are being counted across England, but there is a clear early winner from these local elections: Nigel Farage. His party triumphed in the Runcorn and Helsby by-election this morning, overturning a 14,000-odd majority and winning by just six votes! Elsewhere, Andrea Jenkyns triumphed in Lincolnshire; Reform came second in a number of mayoral races; and their 38 per cent vote share in Runcorn matches the best-ever performance that Ukip achieved in a by-election. So far, the story is one of teal triumph – at the expense of the two main parties. Labour are already pointing to the difficulty incumbents often face at local elections, and will claim victory after narrowly holding out in three mayoral races: North Tyneside, the West of England and Doncaster. The Tories, however, appear to have totally capitulated – but with widespread results for councils across England expected later, that could all change. Oscar Edmondson speaks to James Heale and Lucy Dunn. Produced by Oscar Edmondson.
