    He called two property crashes: Is 2026 really next?
    Feb 19 2026
    An expert who correctly predicted the 2008 financial crisis says UK property prices will crash in late 2026. Fred Harrison, the economist who pioneered the 18-year property cycle theory, is doubling down on his prediction – and his track record means we can’t ignore it. Rob & Rob examine Harrison's latest forecast, unpacking what that could mean for investors right now, pressure‑testing the call against today’s market and asking what would need to happen for it to play out. (04:44) What is the 18-year property cycle? (08:50) Could the cycle be broken? (10:25) Conditions from the previous crash compared to today (13:32) What mortgage lending standards reveal about crash conditions (15:26) The silent property crash that’s already happened (19:05) The weakest part of the theory (24:00) Hub Extra Links mentioned: BBC News article - Could Manchester be a model for the UK to kickstart growth?

    ASK511: Am I wrong to be scared? PLUS: Can this trick cut my tax bill?
    Feb 17 2026
    It's Tuesday, which means it's time for another Ask Rob & Rob! (0:45) AJ purchased his first two buy-to-lets using bridging finance and is now remortgaging onto longer-term deals. As part of the process, his lender required him to take independent legal advice – something he found surprisingly intimidating. He asks Rob & Rob whether it’s normal for these meetings to feel so daunting, or if it’s just him. (05:34) John bought a property for £60K, which is now worth £120K, with no mortgage attached. He wants to move it into a limited company to be more tax efficient. His estate agent suggested he sell it to himself at the original price to avoid capital gains, but his accountant has warned that HMRC may see this as tax avoidance. He asks Rob & Rob whether this strategy stacks up – or if it’s a red flag waiting to happen. Enjoy the show? Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts - it really helps others find us!
