My Successful Outcome:
We will have met our growth target for the Investment Business.
We will have developed and implemented a marketing / business development plan for the Lettings Business and proven that we can grow this business organically.
We will develop the business in a sustainable way, that doesn’t rely on me doing the work. With systems and procedures in place and people trained to carry out the work.
My Values:
- Achievement
- Excellence
- Education
- Continual learning
- Organisation
My Guiding Principles:
- Put more effort into developing the business. Develop systems and procedures and dedicate time to training people to carry out the work.
- ??
- ??
My New Beliefs:
- We will be more in control in all aspects of the business, with staff that work for us. I'll look to offload or outsource the work that sits outside of our immediate core competence
- I will move off the tools and not spend every day on site. We will focus on the key projects that use our strengths.

| We are also aiming to add 8 of our own properties to our B2L portfolio by end 2024. | 50% | 15/4/24 - Expect deals to be concluded before end April. 29/4/24 - I think the finance for achieving the 8 flats this year is pretty much there, we just need settlement from the farm to be concluded. 17//6/24 -We are waiting on 2 properties transferring from the farm. This will leave 6 still to be found. 1/7/24 - I had a meeting at the farm over the weekend, just to finalise our agreement and I have now instructed a solicitor to bring the 2 properties into Lettings' portfolio. This should be complete by end July. 23/7/24 - We had initially agreed to value the 2 properties at lower than market value, but my aunt and uncle's new accountant has stopped that. So I now need to bring them across at full market value and I will then remortgage both in the short term. 29/8/24 - We now have a mortgage broker on board to help with finance and I will update on progress when I have more. 12/9/24 - We've had a bid accepted for a flat in Drumchapel and my dad also has a flat he want to sell to me (which will happen before the end of the year) and I will update at our next meeting. 25/9/24 - The lender won't provide a mortgage for the 2 farm properties, so they need to be taken of our list.

Next step is to focus on the finance side of it. I will meet with both of them next week to move this forward. 29/8/24 - We did have our meeting but Sharon had identified one or two anomalies in the system, which she needs to clear up before handing over to us to start using.
