Optimising your Property Business into 5 key areas, systemising and outsourcing with Claire McNeil

About Claire:Claire left the corporate world after a 20 year career. Working her way up through an FTSE100 company into senior leadership roles, she picked up many skills along the way. From operational management of people and performance, large and small teams, in office and remote workers through to building functions and departments that provided a service across the whole 35,000 employee business, she developed expertise in the operational running of a business.After leaving her career Claire initially moved into property, starting her business New Beeginnings which provides single let family homes in Liverpool. In 2020, during the pandemic she began doing some consultancy work, initially to help out a pal in his property business. She soon realised her skills and experience could help other property business owners and soon Hive Creation was born.About your host, Tej:Tej graduated from King's’ College London with a BSc Biochemistry in 2014, he then pursued a career in Medical Education and Marketing. Soon after his second job… he was fired! A moment of relief and freedom was what he felt, not sure what his mother felt when he told her he was jobless at 23…He then went in search of a more ethical path, a business he could set up where the reward was equal to the work put in. “If they are making pounds, why am I making pennies?” - was his thought process, not happy with slow progression and bureaucracy (& having to wear smart shoes everyday). This lead him to opening a Recruitment business (not sure where the ethics went) which doubled in profit every year, for 4 years. He hated it. Golden handcuffs they call it.Fortunately, he used the cash he’d built up from that business, to educate himself in Property Investing. Soon, he’d stopped the business and transitioned into Property Investment full time. He then had a slow start -Purchasing 15 properties in his first 9 months, using over £650,000 of Investor Finance, he built a £1,200,000 property portfolio and created £30,000 of profit from flips. This gave him ‘financial freedom’, but it was the most stressful period of his life. Growing quickly is very painful.Let’s not forget that his Podcast grew to be the most-reviewed UK Property Podcast, peaking at 4,000 unique downloads per episode.His Podcast (Tej Talks) now sits at 660,000 downloads in over 100 countries and has 489 reviews, rated 5/5.Links:https://www.facebook.com/clairemcneilhivehttps://www.instagram.com/clairemcneilhive/https://www.linkedin.com/in/clairemcneilhive/Tej InvestsTej TalkseLearning Hosted on Acast.
