Summary

If you're a Founder and would like to come on the podcast, then you can apply on the link here 👉 https://dodgewoodall.com/guest John Reynolds opens up about what it really takes to build a £250M property empire from scratch - and the brutal realities that come with chasing opportunity at scale. Drawing on decades in the industry, he breaks down how he went from commission-only sales to spotting a once-in-a-generation shift in the market - turning overlooked office buildings into high-value residential developments before most people even understood the opportunity. He takes Dodge through the mindset behind it all - moving fast, taking calculated risks, and committing to deals worth millions in a matter of days. He explains the pressure of operating at that level, where hesitation costs you everything… because if you don’t act, someone else will. He opens up about the darker side of business - being undercut by powerful investors, having deals taken from under him, and learning the hard way that trust, without protection, can cost you everything. This is a conversation about instinct, risk, and learning to play the game at the highest level - without losing everything along the way. This is the eventful life of John Reynolds.
