Episode 277: Replacing your salary with HMO investments
Simon answers the question of what it would take to replace the average salary with an HMO portfolio.
Stuart and Simon previously asked this question four years ago and this episode revisits the question with up to date figures. Listen back to episode 86 as well for the comparison on how dramatically things have changed in the last four years.

The Business of Property
The Business of Property follows the journey of two entrepreneurs working in the property world.
Stuart is a property investor with a focus on HMOs, mostly for the student market. He prefers a hands-off approach with most of his investment properties being remote.
Simon has a small portfolio of vanilla buy-to-let properties that he mostly self-manages. To make his property management easier he created Property and Tenant Manager (https://www.patma.co.uk/).
Simon and Stuart, along with guests, discuss the ups and downs they're experiencing in their property businesses. Along the way they share property news, business tips and anything else that happens to crop up their weekly chats.
