Throwback Video | Training on Property Flips & Refurbs
Flipping and refurbishing properties have been a hit in the real estate scene. It's a good start for anyone looking to explore property investments and it's always good to recycle than spend more on a brand new.
Plus, it's easy, take a used property, have it clean, fixed and even redesigned then have it rented or sold.
However, just because it's easy to do doesn't always mean that you will get sales immediately. Every business ventures need proper training for it to be successful.
We have training coming up in May 2018 - take a look at www.daniellatto.co.uk/propertyflips

Throwback Video | Property Coaching | Controversial Why we dont take deposits and why we dont rent to those under 25
Yep – I stopped taking deposits a while ago!
And yep – we have issues with people under 25 – and you can blame the government for pulling the safety net.
Here’s why…
Deposits can be useful if you are an entrepreneur investing in housing and renting out but is that really the way to go? What if your client tries to take advantage of that deposit? And there are times that you can't do anything about it because it's their money.
Plus, there are times that you will have interested clients that are under 25, and now, we don't take them anymore? Why? Blame the government and their law regarding housing benefits in which people under 25 can't claim.

Podcast Replay | Podcast 4 – Interview with Property Investor Barry Davies on Property Investing, Motivation and Persistence
Back where it all started podcast wise ...
In this hour long podcast, I interview Property Entrepreneur Barry Davies about his rise to wealth through property investing in the UK.
I ask him about his 3 tips for getting results (which you can apply to anything you want to get results in), we discuss some of the pitfalls to avoid and he describes how he went from no money left to how his top 5 properties earn him a whopping 6 figure income each year. He's done this in a relatively short space of time.

Next Saturday (12th May) | Property Flips & Refurbishment Training in Cardiff
When I first started in property, my strategy was to buy low, refurbish the property and then sell high.
Going back 20 years though, we didn’t have the level of education we have available to us now.
- No internet.
- No podcasts
- No Youtube
- No training courses
- No Mentors
So I made A LOT of mistakes.
Fast forward 20 years to today, and we don’t need to make those same mistakes, and we even have access to mentors who have personally flipped hundreds of properties and helped their investors do so too.
So last week, I was having a conversation with Mike, a good friend of mine who has been doing property flips for 25 years or so and the conversation went on to how things have changed in the property market.
Even investors with a lot of experience are getting stuck.
And if they’re getting stuck, no wonder others with less experience are too.
New legislation, changes in the amount of properties available, it’s all changing.
But luckily, we have people like Mike out there who can spot the changes, and adapt accordingly to make the most out of the new opportunities this represents.
And luckily for the rest of us, he’s teaching it in Mayand in Cardiff.
It’s a one day training course at a price that’s so low it’s ridiculous!
Find Our More About The Property Training Day
Now Mike LOVES helping others. It’s one of the reasons we speak so often.
I love surrounding myself with positive can do people who actually have the EXPERIENCE. Someone just like me who gets frustrated when the new property trainer with 6 months experience starts selling training because they got their first deal right.
But Mike is the real deal. He’s done all these deals himself, not just learned them on a training course somewhere, but actually implemented what he knows for the last 25 years. TWENTY FIVE YEARS!!
I’ve known Mike for about 5 years now, and he’s even been one of my coaching clients.
But you know when you meet someone, and you instantly connect, and you know that the person is a good stand up guy?
That’s Mike – he knows his stuff inside out and back to front and he’s an excellent coach, trainer and presenter as well as a valued friend.
So if you’re at a more advanced level, or you want to be, then take a look.

I hope you can make one of the dates, because if you can, you’ll be in very good hands with Mike.

Leaving #Billionaire Bootcamp (Until The next One in Hawaii!!)
#BillionaireBootcamp – Thanks for those that reached out – I’m back at the villa tomorrow so can respond with more info for you !
The training finished last night where we burned all our limiting beliefs and our ‘keywords’ that we had identified and processed; last night under the stars.
An empowering week for sure, and an uplifting outlook for the future that will likely emerge as a big income shift.
When you look at how you’re playing now, and compare that with how you should be playing, the gaps are blindingly obvious, but it takes an expert like Chris Howard to enable you to go deeper than you’ve ever gone before and pull out all of those belief systems and strategies and work through them to see if they’re serving you, or just keeping you comfortable and where you already are.
Looking forward to getting back to Spain (later tonight via Gatwick) and getting cracking tomorrow.
For those that want the change too, you can still reach out and PM me.
- And if you have no cash to get started with, then I can personally help you fix that problem and help you begin to generate more cash via the Income Accelerator Membership (£1 Seven day trial and £147 per month for 4 live group coaching calls per month)
- If you already have some money, and want to get started Property Sourcing and making between £2,500 and £5,500 per deal, then reach out too – we have one of the best trainers and coaches in the UK who specialises in JUST Property Sourcing and nothing else.
- And if you have beween £60k and £100k and want to start making £20 profit per deal, we have one of the best Property Refurbishment coach and trainer lined up. With more than 20 years experience, he JUST DOES Property refurbishment.
And when you sign up with either of those trainers & coaches, you also get my Income Accelerator included for 12 months free of charge
It’s all happening – but only you can make that decision to move forward.
Drop me a PM if you would like any more information on any of the above, or just want to understand where to put your money in 2018.
Now, I need to go and catch my flight !

Daniel Latto VLOG | How Will Interest Rate Rises Affect Your Property & Business
Interest Rates.
They’re at an historic low, but they have to rise at some point.
Have you stress tested your portfolio yet ?
If not, then now if the time to do it.
Many newer property investors wont remember the higher interest rates that we used to have because they’ve been so low for the last decade or so.
But they can;t possibly remain that low, and it would be naive to think so.
The “It wont happen this time” brigade need to understand that it ALWAYS HAPPENS AGAIN !
Me included by the way – I love low interest rates, but I’ve also got to be careful to make sure that my portfolio works with interest rate rises that may or may not happen this year or the next.
Only time will tell of course, but now is the time to be prepared just in case.
Daniel Latto Video | Is Landlord Licensing Bogus?
Is Landlord Licensing a way for your caring council to make sure ‘rogue landlords’ don’t take advantage?
Or is it just another way to make yet more money from 99% of good landlords who abide by the rules ?
I think you can probably tell which way I’m swaying on this issue.
But it’s coming – nationwide, at some point.
Maybe not this month or even this year, but it will definitely come in as cash strapped councils need a way to earn money in return for doing fuck all.
(Yep – I swore in a Youtube Description – it’s THAT serious!)
So what can you do?
Take a watch of the video.
Why it’s not just about the HUSTLE
Filmed on the coast of the Mediterranean, Dan talks about why it’s not just about the Hustle.

Podcast 102 – WEBSITE GROWTH – How Are You Tracking Your Numbers
In order to track our Website Growth, we set a new target yesterday on our website for the number of visitors we get per day.
Now it’s important to point out that this Website Growth figure is not in the thousands of visitors – what we do on my website is fairly niche.
When I had my old lettings agency for example, we received an average of 35,000 visitors a month.
Think about that for a second – that’s more than a thousand people a day running through your shop – wouldn’t that help your business !
But that’s a lettings agency which had all sorts of stuff bolted on to it. It’s not a niche coaching company.
Marketing will help your Website Growth Figures So the key here is that you should be measuring some form of data so that you can then decide how to increase the numbers you’re looking at.
So if you’re getting 10 visitors a day to your website, how can you increase that to say 20 ?
If you’re getting 200 a day, how can you increase that to 400 ?
You see one of the things I’ve noticed is that when a client signs up for our 12 months coaching package (which you should do also by the way as it’s seriously awesome!) – they generally have been on my mailing list for some time.
In other words, they haven’t just found me on Google. They generally don’t fill in that form unless they have listened to my podcasts, connected with me on Social Media or messaged me in some way.
So it’s the same for you.
What leads to a person making a transaction with you ?
Firstly the need to KNOW, LIKE and TRUST you.
Secondly, they need to know that what you do (as in your service or product) can actually help them get the results they’re looking for, or will ENABLE them to move closer to the result they need.
Now what’s interesting about this is that in real life it actual works the other way around.
Track your website growth figures daily
Track your website growth figures daily
First they’re looking for a solution to their problem.
THEN they will decide whether they like and trust you enough to make the transaction.
That’s why I keep going on about video and podcasting, because it actually does both for you.
Despite creating videos for 5 years, 2016 was the first year a lead was actually generated from YouTube.
Since starting podcasts in just June 2015 (less than 2 years ago), a large proportion of leads has come from there.
But what tends to happen is that people will see you on one medium, and then seek you out on another medium; hence the idea about multiple messages on multiple mediums.
All of this can be very time consuming – which is why so many people struggle to find time to do it.
Only, the consequence of this is that then their reach no longer extends beyond the people who already know about them in their immediate circle of influence.
You have to find a way to reach out further.
And all of this ACTUALLY starts with having a plan about how many website visitors you have.
Everything you do should driving people onto the next step. Be it an opt in on a website, or to join a group (Have you joined SUCCESS JUNKIES yet ?)
From a really basic stand point, if you’re just getting 10 people per day to visit your site, you could just start placing adverts on places like Gumtree. I mean, it’s a start right ?
Get obsessed with that website visitor number. The more people who know about you, and the more people who spend time LISTENING to YOUR STUFF, to WATCHING your embedded YouTube videos, the more people are going to hang around and build the ‘Know, Like & Trust’ aspect. Website Growth is an important aspect of your business, so focus on it.
Come on admit it – most people don’t even know how many website visitors they have.
In fact they say ‘that number is so low I don’t even bother’ which is the EXACT OPPOSITE of what you should be doing!
Imagine having 50,000 visitors a month and saying ‘That number is so high I don’t even bother’ – you can say that because you’re already well on your way.
Look, if the number is so low why bother – then why bother to even have a website ?
It’s a waste of money. Might as well send Facebook Advert traffic to a squeeze page or to join a Facebook Group.
So how about you take that investment (the website) and start using it as you should.
- Drive traffic to it
- Have an opt in box with a ‘lead magnet’
- provide content in the form of Articles, Videos and Podcasts
- Build value via email, invite them to join you on Social Media (to build the Know, Like & Trust)
- Watch those visitor numbers increase
- Ensure you have a conversion mechanism (a way to get people to speak to you so you can help identify their real problem and offer your solution if it’s a fit)
All of this starts from checking those visitor numbers on your website.
Get to it !

Becoming An Authority In Your Field
The way that I market my services and sell them is by being an authority. You have to let people know that you are out there and also you need to tell them what your values are. Then when people see your advert you can show them the value that you offer and the values that you put behind your business.
For example:
- Having videos on YouTube that solve their problem
- Having podcasts
- Posting on social media
- Facebook live videos where you interact with your audience
- Offering free signup products to solve their problems
One of the great things about YouTube is that the videos that you create are on show always. With Facebook Live people see it for maybe 2 days at most and then it is lost in the news feed. If you want to be an authority in your field, this is something you need to be thinking about.
Take a look a the video and you will see how I recommend that you do this.
Can you see how I do things differently to how other people do things? Can you see how you can create so many more pieces of content from each Facebook Live video you create?
Converting Your Facebook Live Video To YouTube Video
Here is the video that I mentioned showing you how to convert your Facebook Live video into a YouTube video.
It is by doing things like this that I have been able to become an authority in my niche. I am able to head out to the beach on a Tuesday morning with my dog if I want to. What would you do with your time if you were in this position?
You see, you may have different ideas about what you want to do with your free time when you become financially free. You don’t have to go to the beach if you don’t want to. You might like to go out hiking somewhere, go sailing or drive out to a new place that you want to explore for the day.
The great thing is that YOU get to choose!
So if you are looking to be the person that chooses what you do with your free time, become an authority in your field and really start to make things happen for you.
