In this episode of Allsorts Property with Joe Burns, I sit down with Alex Carr — owner of a successful plumbing business and growing property investor with HMOs and buy-to-lets.

We talk about how Alex built his business from the ground up, the reality of running a trade company, and how he’s used that income and experience to grow a property portfolio alongside it. From managing staff and customers to refurbishments, HMOs, and long-term investing, this episode is packed with real insight for anyone wanting to build wealth through business and property.

We also get into:

• Starting and scaling a plumbing business
• The truth about working in the trades
• HMOs vs buy-to-lets
• Using trade skills in property investing
• Lessons from business ownership
• Advice for people starting out

In this episode of Allsorts Property with Joe Burns, I’m joined by Ste Hamilton for a raw and honest conversation about success, setbacks, and what happens when deals don’t go to plan.

Ste opens up about going from having it all in property to experiencing a difficult period of failed deals, investor pressure, and public criticism that impacted both his business and reputation. Now, he’s focused on rebuilding trust, clearing his name, and making things right.

We talk openly about:

• What actually went wrong behind the scenes
• The reality of property investing when deals turn sour
• The podcast interview he walked out of and what led to it
• Pressure, accountability, and public perception
• How he’s working to repay investors and rebuild his business
• The lessons he’s learned the hard way
• Why he refuses to give up despite the backlash

This is a candid discussion about risk, responsibility, and what it really takes to recover when things go wrong in property.

Whether you’re in property, business, or just interested in real-life comeback stories, this episode gives you an unfiltered look behind the headlines.

In this episode of Allsorts Property with Joe Burns, I sit down with Haseeb Akram for a powerful conversation that goes far deeper than business or fitness.

Haseeb opens up about losing his dad and how that completely changed his outlook on life, forcing him to reevaluate everything — from success and purpose to the direction he wanted his life to go in.

Although Haseeb previously built a property portfolio in London before eventually selling up and moving away, this episode became much more about mindset, personal growth, discipline and life after loss rather than property itself.

We talk about:

• Losing a parent and the impact it had
• Reevaluating life and priorities
• Discipline and mental strength
• Building Mighty Mass Club
• Business pressure and sacrifice
• Why so many people stay stuck
• The importance of purpose and consistency

A real, honest conversation with plenty of perspective and lessons throughout.
