FPTV (EP 242) LANDLORD BUDGETING: How Much Rent Should You Save Each Year?

Finding the sweet spot between saving for a rainy day and actually enjoying your rental income is every landlord’s dream for a peaceful and profitable life.

Maintenance and repairs come with the territory of owning a rental home, but a smart approach can really protect your property, maintain a healthy cash flow, and even create happy tenants.

But how much should you set aside each year? Letting agents Richard Cook and Kerin Marshall discuss this subject and provide useful information to help make things better for landlords in Scotland.

THE £34.22M FIFE BANK OF MUM AND DAD IN 2025: A Blessing or a Barrier?

In the past year alone, Fife parents gifted a staggering £34.22 million to help their children onto the property ladder — but is this generosity propping up the system or highlighting its flaws?

With the average first-time buyer in Fife having nearly half of their deposit from their family — the Bank of Mum and Dad is quietly shaping the future of homeownership in Fife.

Whether you’re a parent, buyer, or just curious about what this means for Fife’s housing market, Estate Agents Perrie McIntosh and Sophie Gibbens discuss this article which explores both the help and the hurdles behind one of our biggest unspoken trends.

EP 170: THE WEALTH CREATION SHOW: Time to Take Stock

Do you ever take the time to have a go at taking stock of things in your life?

Sometimes, however organised we are, things can overwhelm us, and taking stock is what’s needed to get back to a sense of normality as quickly as possible.

Usually, we stray off course due to something out of our control taking up our time more than usual – a family emergency, illness, holidays even.

Or we can simply lose track for a few weeks as life gets busier, and we can’t stick to our usual routines for a while.

Whatever the reason – it can be really difficult to get back on track.

Luckily, you don’t need to head back to school to understand this as Lettings Director, Richard Cook and one of the UK’s most successful property investors, Jim Parker are on hand to discuss.
