Inflation: The hidden force that will build – or destroy – your wealth

Rob & Rob are back this week with part 2 of ‘Fundamentals February’ and this week they’re discussing the crucial topic of inflation.

The Robs have talked about inflation in the past, but it’s still a topic that gets overlooked regularly. Today they’re going to prove why inflation is one of the most important parts of the property process.

In this week’s episode The Robs discuss:

• What is inflation?
• How does it work?
• How can it affect you?

Ultimately, inflation can either make you very rich if you adapt with it, or, if you choose to do nothing, it could break you. Year-to-year you barely notice, but over time it’s huge!

So, now you might be thinking:

• Why does it happen?
• What does it mean for you?

Tune in and all will be revealed. You’ll want a pen and paper to hand for this one.

In the news this week, the government have been a busy lot! We’ve got a triple whammy of announcements:

1. Electrical checks are now mandatory every 5 years
2. Landlords now have to be a part of a redress scheme
3. Only 1 in 10 landlords have their property fully managed

For this week’s hub extra we’ve got an app for you called 1Blocker. This is only for Apple users but we’re pretty sure there will be an Android version somewhere. It is an app you have to pay for but it will change your life. When surfing the internet on your phone 1Blocker will stop all the ads and videos you don’t want to see from being loaded, allowing you an easier and quicker browse of the online world.

We’d love to hear what you think of this week’s Property Podcast over on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram. You might even have a topic you’d like us to cover in the future – if so, pop us a message on social and we’ll see what we can do.

If that wasn’t enough, you can also join our friendly property community on the Property Hub forum.
