Hi, I’m Edward

I’m a former university lecturer and Chartered Surveyor, and Head of Investment Finance for a FTSE 100 company.

On this site you’ll see live examples and methods that successful property investors and RICS regulated Chartered Surveyors use when investing in commercial property.

I’ll also review prop-tech and equipment that can make a positive impact on the speed and accuracy of your investment analysis.

99% of the content I produce is FREE.

WHY

My top 3 reasons why…

Reason 1: I have taught real estate investment in university and conference settings since 2014. Helping people understand concepts that underpin successful investments is genuinely rewarding

Reason 2: I work full time for a FTSE 100 firm in the City. I have to practise established methods regularly, be alive to new ideas, and always be learning.… the best way to learn is to teach

Reason 3: When I was a practising Chartered Surveyor, I worked for commercial property, land and development investors. The mutual benefits of sharing experience freely are undeniably powerful

Investing, the environment and social gain

Property plays a crucial role in shaping our world. Property investment should embody guilt-free practices, foster economic progress, and demonstrate how positive environmental actions can contribute to stronger financial returns.

My aim is to illustrate financially robust investment ideas using real life examples, and highlight their positive environmental and social impact.

I prioritise investments that deliver meaningful environmental and social gains….so I’m not going to endorse projects and strategies that fall short in this regard.
