For every vacant property he reports to Empty Property Hunters, he earns $20, plus a cut if the company buys it. Inspired by a dead pigeon that led him to his first payout, Toby’s now a pro at spotting abandoned homes in seconds—looking for cobwebs, piled mail, and overgrown weeds. He’s been doing it for two years, turning what feels like “finding $20 on the sidewalk” into a way to fund his weekly takeaway cravings while helping tackle England’s housing shortage. He believes persistence pays off: knock on enough doors, and the odds are in your favor. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
