Summary
What does it take to be a successful property investor? How can you start with nothing but a very ordinary level of savings and amass a portfolio that means you'll never need to work for anyone else again?
Beyond the Bricks is a window into the lives of nine UK-based investors who've done exactly that. Through long-form interviews with them, we learn exactly how they did it, what their lives are like now, and what they recommend to anyone just starting out.
Of course, "success" is a relative term. During the book you'll meet people ranging from Mark, who amassed a portfolio worth millions, to Serena, whose few houses saved her family from financial ruin. And along the way you'll meet Kim, who was unstoppable prior to the credit crunch, nearly lost everything, and found an innovative way to stay afloat.
The day-to-day life of a property investor isn't necessarily what you'd expect either. Fast cars and exotic holidays are represented...but so, too, are sprinting in pursuit of rent checks, puttering around in a dressing gown all day, and helping a tenant with cancer by driving her to hospital appointments.
This book is less of a "how to" than a "how you could". It won't give you one formula for success but many practical ideas and inspiring examples that you can use to craft your own property-investing story.
With all jargon clearly explained, this book will be an educational and entertaining listen for those who are yet to get started as well as a rich source of new ideas for more-experienced investors.

Mentoring through Mortar!
A wonderfully entertaining and insightful book about people who have made money through property. Very,very good. Loved it and there was so much in everyone's stories that it was like a biography with heaps of learning attached.
I liked the narration by the author and will be finding and listening to more of his books.

Excellent property audio book
Excellent book. Some really good case studies of UK based property investors at the top of their game. Plenty of great ideas, philosophies and insight. Very easy to follow and understand. I highly recommend this book

Dated and not relevant
Not relevant to the current times, regulations and market cycle. All subjects essentially profited from the housing boom and easy lending pre 2008. Not relatable examples in 2021 that give any sound insight. Shame.

Interesting Listen
A good book that delves into a number of case studies about regular people who invest in property. It was interesting to hear how they started, the problems they faced and how they overcame them.

Excellent content, real examples. A must read.
This book is a must read for anyone interested in properly investigating. I found it not only informative but also inspirational. A real no frills but genuine read as always with Rob D's book.

A bit dated
I am a big fan of Rob Dix's work but this is a bit dated now. the examples are quite old and not as relevant today.
