Student Successes
A very honest account from this student of how after our property auction course, he walked away from a property he was due to exchange contracts on, and, after just a couple of months, bought a property prior to auction which increased in value by 60% in 8 months without any works.
Have a listen.
BTW, he's gone on to buy many more!

Property Auctions: Repossessions, Bankruptcies and Bargain Properties – LIVE and ONLINE
This is a one-day in-person property auction course in a prestigious Central London venue and is also available LIVE online for those unable to travel or live overseas.
Training Objectives:
Buying property at auction is a proven strategy for acquiring investment properties significantly below market value, whether the overall market is rising, falling, or stagnating. Properties can be flipped, developed, held or refurbished as part of a ‘Buy, Refurbish, Refinance and Rent’ (BRRR) strategy.
Why pay over the odds through Rightmove and Zoopla (retail) when you can buy at auction (wholesale)?
Our workshop programme is designed and delivered by trainers who deal in the auction market daily. At the workshop, we will source target properties LIVE and look at the deal, legal pack, finance, and tactics for success.
