Property Investing: What I’d Do Differently Today
Most people spend their lives chasing the next "big thing" in crypto or property, only to realize they're too late to the party. If I had to start my entire property journey again from scratch today, my strategy would look remarkably different than it did 25 years ago. This isn't about following a generic "passion"; it’s about the clinical intersection of experience, personal skill, and cold, hard profitability. From why I’d steer clear of leaseholds and flats to the specific reason 50% leverage is the "sweet spot" for long-term survival, I’m breaking down the blueprint for a resilient, scalable portfolio. We dive deep into manufacturing value through forced appreciation, the hidden benefits of inflation on your debt, and the boring—but essential—daily habits that actually build wealth over decades. KEY TAKEAWAYS Prioritise Scalable Assets: Move toward small blocks, co-living, and high-end HMOs quickly to offset rising regulatory and management costs. Focus on Forced Appreciation: Don't rely on market growth; drive value yourself through refurbishments, conversions, and operational upgrades. The "Develop to Hold" Model: Avoid the "develop to sell" trap, which can lead to bankruptcy during market downturns when properties won't shift. Strategic Leverage: Maintain approximately 50% debt on a portfolio to balance the benefits of inflation-eroded debt with the safety of a low-leverage cushion. Reinvest and Restrict Spending: Harness compounding by reinvesting profits and never spending more than 5% of your total invested asset base. QUOTES "I like to be the contrarian. I like to buy things that are unloved and try and guess where the market is going to move next." "Developing is great, but having a purely developed to sell model is quite dangerous." "Manufacturing the value to offset the friction of those extra taxes and regulatory costs is important." "Wealth building is about developing yourself and developing a thousand daily habits." "Inflation has the inverse relationship on debt. It actually reduces debt. Inflation erodes debt."

He is a system and spreadsheet geek and has developed a complex, confidential deal analyser system of buying residential, commercial and multi-let properties.

The Real Economic Impact of the War in Iran
In this episode of Mark My Words, Mark Homer provides a contrarian take on the recent escalation of conflict in Iran and the Gulf, cutting through the media noise to analyze its true impact on the UK economy and property market. He discusses the US blockade on Iranian oil, the implications for global energy prices, and why he believes politicians and institutions like the IMF are using the crisis as a convenient excuse for pre-existing domestic economic issues. KEY TAKEAWAYS The Gulf conflict's economic impact is being exaggerated: Mark argues that the media, government officials, and institutions like the IMF are overstating the conflict's effect on the UK economy to excuse domestic issues. UK oil reliance is misunderstood: The UK imports a significant amount of its oil and gas from Norway, making it less directly vulnerable to Middle Eastern supply disruptions than often portrayed. Domestic policies are driving UK inflation: Recent tax increases and public sector pay rises implemented by the government are a bigger factor in stoking inflation than the geopolitical situation in Iran. Interest rates are still trending downward: Despite the geopolitical noise, Mark predicts the base interest rate will continue its medium-to-long-term downward trajectory, likely settling at 3% or lower. The Renters' Rights Act will squeeze property supply: Upcoming housing legislation is expected to reduce the supply of rental properties, putting upward pressure on rents despite a largely stagnant residential property market. BEST MOMENTS "I don't think the impact at the moment with the current set of circumstances is as big as lots of people in the media and the government would like to have you believe." "So a lot of this lunacy has been going on with this government and the previous government, because of course this stuff was baked in years ago." "The IMF, the OBR, they're doom-mongers, and they always underestimate and make it look like things are worse than they actually are." "We are actually importing loads and loads of oil from Norway... emitting more carbon just to, you know, use oil and gas from the same place." "It's just sad for the Iranian people a lot of them that they haven't got a new regime... unfortunately it looks like that whole process is going to be delayed."
