We bought our first ‘investment’ property in 1980 for £7000. At the time it wasn’t really our intention to enter the property business as we were clothing retailers, but amazingly we were offered £60,000 for the property just a couple of years later. We then realized that there was a lot more money and a better lifestyle to be had from property investing, rather than persevering with our 24/7 retail business.
From the proceeds of that sale we acquired our first ‘Buy to Let’ property, well before the term had been invented. And although our friends at the time said we were MAD, ‘what do want with a dilapidated building in Mid Wales for’? Being a very ambitious young couple and used to taking certain risks, we saw an opportunity all those years ago to secure an income for the future. We have now built up a solid property portfolio in the U.K, as well as acquiring land & property in Eastern Europe. Having recently relocated to Mid Wales to enjoy a better lifestlye, we have now started our own letting business: www.lounge-lettings.co.uk Mainly to offer our clients a professional letting service for their investment in Mid Wales.

Now that our friends have eaten their words and with almost 30 years of experience under our belts, as well as having acquired many valued contacts along the way. We are now passing on our experience and knowledge by dedicating our time to this exciting new business, ‘1-world-properties.co.uk.’Our focus is to help individual and novice investors establish a portfolio for themselves, by using 'creative financing methods' in the U.K. and further a field in exciting new markets.
