KEY TAKEAWAYS Andy attended Multiple Streams of Property Income in 2015, and it was a turning point in his life. Andy discovered the techniques to leverage, how to create passive income, the proven property strategies, the networking opportunities, and the unrivaled joint ventures partnerships progressive had to offer. Andy has now attended 25 Multiple Streams of Property Income Events and each time picks up new pieces of information. In 2015 Andy signed up for the Rob and Mark VIP mentoring programme, and also attended the Cayman legacy with progressive and it helped him gain clarity within his business. Andy understood the idea of systemising and leveraging, and before he knew it he was earning the same amount of money each week without working. Now a valuable joint venture partner Andy is mentored by Mark Homer and mentors others himself sharing his knowledge of the property industry. Andy now focuses on modular construction and has partnered with a factory to produce ready-built homes with the first development scheduled for completion on the 13th of August. The modular homes are all done in a quality controlled environment and what usually takes 10 weeks to do can be done in 24 hours.   BEST MOMENTS “Was my own worst enemy and ended up doing everything in my business myself, I was working 100 hours a week” “We want to do more and build our businesses but because we have an entrepreneurial mindset it’s hard to let others in and leverage out tasks” “As long as people are doing 80% of the standard of work you’re looking for you can leverage out the tasks” “Modular housing is a game-changer in the construction industry” “I now personally mentor others, it’s the simplest way to becoming a developer” “Your first development is the most important one” CONTACT METHOD [email protected] Facebook ABOUT THE HOSTPeter Jones is a Chartered Surveyor, an author and a serial buy-to-let property investor.
