Why 2026’s most hated property is really the most underrated
Flats vs. Houses? It’s one of the most heated debates in property investing. For years, the consensus has been to avoid flats. But what if the reasons investors turned against them no longer apply? Rob & Rob challenge the anti-flat mindset and explore why the ground has shifted without most investors noticing. The cladding crisis, COVID and spiralling service charges have turned investors away from flats. But with those factors fading, they unpack where the opportunity is for investors willing to go against the crowd. News story of the week Do the common assumptions against flats still hold up, and what do flats offer that other properties can’t? The major events that turned investors against flats and the changes since that have gone unnoticed Is the price gap between flats and houses here to stay? Four non-negotiables to check before buying any flat Hub Extra Links mentioned: CityAM: Downing Street rules out rent freeze Check out Speeed’s YouTube channel Enjoy the show?

Location is no longer optional
Think it doesn't matter where you buy your investment property? The numbers say otherwise... Rob & Rob use real world examples, comparing two investors who start with the same £100,000 but buy in different regions. Using Land Registry data, Zoopla yields and Savills forecasts, they show how one investor ends up £83,000 ahead after just 10 years, simply because of where they chose to buy. If you've ever felt the pull to invest close to home, this one might change your mind. News story of the week Why investing close to home could be costing you tens of thousands The data that blows apart the “growth in the south, yield in the north” myth How affordability ratios reveal where the real opportunity lies right now A 10-year worked example comparing two investors with the same starting cash – and the huge gap that location alone creates Getting over the emotional barrier of investing away from home Hub Extra Links mentioned: Share of flipped homes falls to decade low Zoopla’s UK’s highest yielding buy-to-let hotspots ONS private rent and house prices Use Google Gemini as a search engine Prefer taking in information through audio?
