FREE DOWNLOAD How YOU Can Make A FORTUNE From Buy-To-Lethttps://bit.ly/BTLReport-POD In this episode Kevin speaks with Gary Ware from the brighter skies podcast. Gary started in property in 2016 flipping properties; his goal was to make enough money in property to become mortgage free. He educated himself well, including various Progressive programmes such as Multiple Streams of income which he now attributes a lot of his success to. As well as Gary’s own journey, they talk about the importance of resourcefulness, mental health and of course, property. Join them to hear an open and compelling conversation about what it’s really like to change your life with property. KEY TAKEAWAYS   Gary struggled with school and ended up leaving with just two GCSEs. However, he knew that he had two dreams, either to be an entrepreneur or to go into the Red Arrows. Under his Dads’ guidance he joined The Royal Airforce. After working his way up he realised he had reached his peak and still wanted to become an entrepreneur, so that’s what he did. When Kevin started in property he thought he didn’t need a wealth of knowledge, this lead to him making a very big investment mistake abroad. He lost a lot of money, his advice to anyone wanting to get into property is to get educated first. Being in the Red Arrows at a managerial level taught Gary how to manage people, put processes in place and project managing. All invaluable transferable skills for his property journey. Gary’s biggest obstacle in his property journey has been imposter syndrome. Kevin believes that imposter syndrome is actually fear but that you need to have some fear to encourage you to research and gather evidence of what is the correct steps to take to become successful. MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: is the Progressive course that Gary first took which changed the trajectory of his property journey: he says it changed his life. The course has the UK’s brightest property experts share in-depth, practical knowledge of buy-to-let properties, raising finance and how to build a mighty property portfolio from the ground up. There may be a wealth of free knowledge out there but if it was that easy to access, understand and motivate you then everyone would know everything. A lot of success it built around commitment, to try, challenge and then succeed. Kevin’s biggest wins were when he restarted after failing. Taking those first steps after making a mistake is what has built his success today. BEST MOMENTS “It was the wake-up call, follow your dreams” “I restarted and I focused on cashflow…and know I’m known as the UKs no-money down expert!” “You’re getting a generic answer and sometimes a little bit of knowledge in the wrong hands is a disaster"  “You call it imposter syndrome, I call it fear…fear that holds you back is dangerous, fear that drives you forward is good” “I don’t love property, I love what it does for me and I love securing a deal” VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk/offers/msopi-property-investing-event-tc-ggl/?gclid=Cj0KCQiAjc2QBhDgARIsAMc3SqR7wMwLKFciEZbG8Jn8hUh2CDX2xN7HrF-DQJohHHG6d7DTUEnSaVYaAnatEALw_wcB https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk   ABOUT THE GUEST Gary Ware https://uk.linkedin.com/in/gary-ware-47337874 ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.
