In today’s episode, I’m thrilled to welcome back Mike Clay of Clay Properties. For those of you who follow my work, you’ll know that Mike is not only a great friend, but also one of my business partners. In fact, Mike has become a bit of a regular on the show!
Today, I’ve brought Mike back to talk about something very specific—raising private finance. This is a key strategy that has played a huge role in how Mike has rapidly and successfully built his HMO property business. It's also something that, alongside one of our other business partners, we’ve done on a regular basis, raising millions of pounds to fund property investments. So, when it comes to raising private finance, there’s no question—Mike knows his stuff. And today, we’re excited to share some of that expertise with you.
