Everyones Talking About Inflation! Property Investors What Does it Mean to You?

Everyones Talking About Inflation! Property Investors What Does it Mean to You?

Author: Kevin McDonnell August 26, 2025 Duration: 24:35
What exactly is inflation and why is it important to us as the general public but also as property investors? Kev explores these questions and gives straight forward, unbiased, and honest answers and talks about the real reasons why more billionaires are created in a crash than at any other time. KEY TAKEAWAYS  The measuring of inflation isn’t always that accurate. It’s not just about the goods you buy in a supermarket but everything in the economy that requires currency to exchange hands. In the past couple of years wages are simply not high enough to keep up with inflation, even the government is looking at increasing public sector wages by 6%, which is still way below the rate of inflation. Right now you can enter the property market for less, there are unique opportunities out there for investors. Buy to let investors have always had to buy with a higher deposit, if you have the cash you can invest as long as you stress test yourself. Property prices are going to come down, there will be many repossessions including rental properties. The amateur investors who overleveraged and did not plan will be the ones who suffer. It’s the ones that need to sell and that you can help where you will make money. BEST MOMENTS   “Inflation is simply the buying power of money” “Does increasing interest rates help solve the inflation problem? Yes to a point but not like it used to” “Will every landlord have future proffed their portfolio like I did? Absolutely not” “More billionaires are created in a crash than any other time” VALUABLE RESOURCES MSOPI – Multiple Streams of Income: https://www.progressiveproperty.co.uk https://kevinmcdonnell.co.uk   ABOUT THE HOST Kevin McDonnell is a Speaker, Author, Mentor & Professional Property Investor.
