It’s the property podcast episode you’ve all been waiting for. Rob & Rob’s interview with Mr Robert Kiyosaki, author of Rich Dad Poor Dad. Rich Dad Poor Dad is possibly the most famous personal finance book ever written. We know it’s been a staple educational tool for most property investors getting started on their property journey. So when Robert Kiyosaki asked if he could come on The Property Podcast, it was a no-brainer. Whilst Rob D was busy enjoying a day at the zoo, Rob B was busy picking Robert Kiyosaki’s brain. And he’s definitely not a guy who’s short of an opinion. On today’s property podcast episode In this episode you’ll hear Robert’s thoughts on certain topics - some attention grabbing ones, and others that are pretty controversial. So in next week’s episode Rob & Rob will be sharing their reactions to what’s said in today’s podcast. You won’t want to miss it! Rich Dad Poor Dad was written over 20 years ago and has proved to be a timeless book that could have been written at any point during that time frame. One of the questions Rob B wants to know the answer to is…. if Robert now thinks differently about anything he wrote back then, and is there anything he would change now? We’re not going to spoil the whole show for you as it’s truly a fantastic episode and one that you should definitely listen to. It’s not every week we have property royalty on the show. This week’s news In the news this week, ‘lenders pile into the ‘Airbnb mortgage’ market as staycation boom continues’. Most people across the country have opted for a staycation this year to avoid quarantine measures for going abroad. This has both been great for the local economy but also property investors who were severely struggling over the lockdown period. Now business is thriving again. Previously, there have never been that many mortgage products available for holiday lets, as you need a certain specific mortgage which is completely different to a buy-to-let mortgage. However things seem to be changing. Lenders have noticed an increase in demand for holiday let mortgages and have now jumped on the bandwagon. So if it seems that if you were planning on going for the holiday let strategy, now is the time to do so. Hub Extra Now you might not be surprised that this week for Hub Extra we’re recommending the book, Rich Dad Poor Dad. Because if you haven’t read it already then you definitely need to! Even if you’re not yet ready to start investing, there’s a lot that you can learn from it regarding personal finance. We’re also recommending that you give this podcast episode a listen where Rob & Rob re-read the book and go over the five things that they still agree with, but also the five things they don’t agree with. If you want to read the book then maybe do that first before listening to the podcast episode so you can come to your own thoughts on it before listening to The Robs.
