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 Matt Robson opens up about how he went from airline pilot to building a multi-million pound property business and the mindset that turned quality properties into serious money. Never comfortable as an employee, Matt was flying for Cathay Pacific in Hong Kong making five figures monthly when the market priced him out. So he started buying back home in Middlesbrough for £100,000 - pulling 6-7 percent yields. By 2016, he had a dozen properties generating income while he slept. Mates kept asking for advice, so he built a website and started a business. His first deal: a house on a £110,000 street that he got for £77,000. What he discovered changed everything - cheap properties are a false economy. Tenants respect nice things and they hold value. Quality stock in the sweet spot compounds. Now running a multi-million pound operation, he's spotted what everyone's missing: Middlesbrough is changing. Treasury relocating. Net Zero Teesside launching. A million pounds there gets you a spectacular house. Same million in Bournemouth gets a decent semi. His philosophy: every day, get one percent better. This is the eventful life of Matt Robson.
