Whether you're new to property investment or a seasoned investor, we're here to guide you every step of the way. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿⚽️🏠 #TrackCapital #PropertyInvestment #Resilience #InvestSmart #EnglandFootball #BounceBackStronger

🤯 The genesis for what ultimately became Fifth Wall came from reading about a jaw-dropping deal in The Wall Street Journal: Blackstone's real estate group (where I had worked) invested in VTS. This article → https://lnkd.in/e9HQUfue I remember reading about it in the and was like, "Holy...this is an amazing deal on so many levels." Blackstone, the biggest name in real estate, is going to play kingmaker for this company. An investment from Blackstone - Gave VTS a competitive age against another software business - Sends a signal to the rest of the industry to adopt them This deal totally inspired Fifth Wall's unique model of venture capital, taking in non-traditional investors (real estate owners and operators who were the largest customers of the technology we were investing in). Fifth Wall eventually piled on and invested in VTS...but congrats to Nick and Ryan and the whole team over at VTS because this deal was awesome to see. #proptech #lessonslearned #venturecapital

👉 Proud of crossing the $1B threshold for total transaction value in one-year for the first time! 🚀 👉 Thrilled about the 12 acquisitions (including a New Platform Creation that began in August) we (Soundcore Capital Partners) completed in 2023, I'm even more excited for 2024. We already have four more companies under LOI that we expect to close in Q1 and have a new platform Fresh Idea fully activated with direct outreach and company visits underway! 👉 With rushed + blind reupping that supported aggressive fund size increases and AUM gathering (= lower returns) by many GPs, which was oddly celebrated by so many, the vast majority of private equity firms grossly overpaid for (and over levered) companies between 2016-2022. With interest rates rapidly up ~550bps and leverage less plentiful, and therefore exit multiples are down, hardly any of those buyers want to sell for negative arbitrage, which resulted in a stagnant M&A market and ultimately means little DPI (stands for Distributions to Paid-In and represents how much value has been returned to LPs relative to how much capital has been called by a GP) in 2023. In stark contrast, consistent purchase price discipline allowed our firm (Soundcore Capital Partners) to exit 36.4% of our portfolio in 2023 and in turn generate substantial DPI to our LPs. #results #business

There are many great stories out there which can help to embolden and inspire people to great things. Lee and Ceri had many pivotal moments along their journey which lots of people would recognise and could relate to their own circumstances. From accidental landlords who spotted an opportunity, their story for me really illustrates the power of FOCUS. Not only did they Follow One Course Until Successful, they emersed themselves in their chosen field, learned everything they could about their market and became recognised experts in their local area. 2 of my favourite books on self development align with this subject, The One Thing by Gary Keller and Essentialism by Greg McKeown. Diversification is often spoken about as a key strategy to wealth preservation but in order to establish yourself in any business or pursuit, you really have to live it, day in and day out. I love sharing these success stories and would welcome you to share yours, there is a link at the bottom of the article. #investinhmos #successstories #investmentproperty

As a self-learner, I read a lot and try to learn as much as possible from successful people. Several investors inspired me along the way. In my latest post, I share some of the lessons learned over the years. Thanks to Paul Andreola, Ian Cassel and Philippe Bergeron-Bélanger for inspiring me to become a better investor!
