The Importance Of Finding Your Why - with Claire Powell and Becca Strelzyn

SUBSCRIBE AND FOLLOW FOR MORE VIDEO CONTENT - https://www.youtube.com/c/propertywealthsystem This week, Mark Winship talks to Claire Powell and Becca Strelzyn of serviced accommodation business, Switchback Stays, and whose property journey began back in 2018 with purchasing buy-to-let properties. Claire and Becca talk about the ways in which they manage their serviced accommodation business, coping with COVID lockdown, and the importance of staying focussed upon your "why".  KEY TAKEAWAYS Taking the leap into property can seem like a gamble. We can mitigate this gamble by making sure we have a relevant "why", and by arming ourselves with as much knowledge as possible. There is always a moment in the property journey where the lightbulb illuminates, and we realise that we have found a far more fulfilling way to live and make money. Serviced accommodation is a far more hands on pursuit, unless we are willing to pay others and delegate. It's full on, but is far more challenging, which keeps things exciting. Serviced accommodation does not necessarily mean "holiday let". SA is used by many people for many different reasons, and this is why they can be found everywhere, not just in cities or coastal regions.  BEST MOMENTS 'It did feel like a milestone, but the timing was so right' 'If we wanted to achieve our goals in property we had to take the leap!' 'If we implement these things, then we can grow a business' 'I wouldn't classify it as a mistake - it was more of a challenge'  VALUABLE RESOURCES This Property Life - https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/this-property-life-podcast/id1540075591 Switchback Stays - https://www.switchbackstays.co.uk ABOUT THE SHOW This Property Life is hosted by the team at Property Wealth System.
