A huge thank you to everyone who joined us on Saturday for the final bonus coaching session of our first One Deal Challenge. Saturday was deliberately a little different. Rather than another structured step in the process, we opened it up and worked through your questions and your actual deals — looking at individual opportunities, challenges and how to think through the next move. We also spent some time looking at the Sentinel roadmap and some of the improvements we’re making as we continue to build the platform around the way investors actually work. And that brings our first One Deal Challenge to a close. Over the week we've gone from: Identify → Understand → Strategise → Appraise → Negotiate → Follow Up → Pipeline The important bit now is not to stop. One property was the vehicle for learning the process. The real value comes from repeating it. Start building that pipeline. Aim initially for 5–10 new opportunities a week, keep gathering intelligence, keep making offers and keep following up on the ones that don't happen immediately. As I said on Friday, this is really the end of the beginning. I've loved the format, so we're going to make the One Deal Challenge a regular Academy event — 10 times a year, once a month excluding August and December. If you joined us this time, come back next month with another deal and do it again. If you missed this one, jump into the next one and work through the process with us live. Thank you to everyone who took part in Challenge #1. Now go and find Deal #2. 🚀

Great session today; we’re now moving from understanding the deal into actually putting numbers around it. Quick recap from yesterday… Your homework was to get some form of vendor circumstance on your property. Remember, this is an evolving picture. Keep adding information to the Intelligence Feed as you uncover it, conversations with agents, listing history, price changes, market information, vendor motivation, etc. If you uncover something material, rerun your Investment Thesis. New intelligence can change the strategy, the structure and ultimately how you approach the deal. From there: 👉 Choose your strategy 👉 Generate your Execution Actions 👉 Then move into the appraisal Today: Appraisals We went through the different appraisal templates, the different valuation methods and how to start putting real numbers around your chosen strategy. The small glitches we saw during the session with the automatic population of market comparables and housing-market data should now be fixed and live. If you have any problems with it, please let me know. 🎯 DAY 3 HOMEWORK Take your ONE property and: 1. Complete the appraisal for your chosen strategy. 2. Review the numbers and assumptions. 3. Create your Offer Ladder. By the end of today, you should be moving from: “Is this interesting?” → “What is this deal actually worth to me, and at what price does it work?” Keep it focused. One property. One appraisal. One offer ladder. Any issues, questions or strange outputs, drop them in the comments below. 👇

Great first session today. The focus was simple: reduce the noise, reduce the overwhelm, and get moving. We started with the market opportunity and why I believe right now represents a particularly strong buying and accumulation phase for property investors. But opportunity alone isn’t enough. One of the biggest things I see holding investors back isn’t a lack of information — it’s too much information. More strategies. More data. More tools. More opinions. More content. The result is often overwhelm, lack of confidence and procrastination. So this week is about doing the opposite: reducing your cognitive load and giving you a clear process to follow. Today the aim is: → Baseline where you are now → Connect your investment goals and targets → Define your investor style → Set your preferred strategies → Establish your Goldmine Area → Set your target returns → Add a property into the Sentinel deal pipeline → Take that property through to Enrichment 🎯 YOUR DAY 1 HOMEWORK Before tomorrow’s session: 1. Set up your Sentinel account if you haven’t already 👉 https://app.getpropertysentinel.com/sign-up (You have a 7-day free trial and can cancel at any time). 2. Complete the activation process and baseline yourself properly. 3. Add ONE property to your deal pipeline and take it through to Enrichment. Don’t spend hours trying to find the perfect property. The objective is action, not perfection. By the end of this week, I want you to understand exactly what a deal looks like for you, and have a repeatable system for finding, assessing and progressing one. Please put any Q's on the homework on this thread as a comment, tag me in and I'll get back to you today. See you tomorrow at 11am for Day 2. 👊

One property. Five days. One decision. We kick off Monday 21st September. The idea is simple: bring ONE live property and, over five days, we’re going to work it properly — from opportunity through to offer. Here’s the week: MONDAY — DEFINE THE DEAL Choose your property. Get clear on what you’re actually looking at and what success looks like. TUESDAY — FIND THE VALUE Look beyond the obvious. Where is the value others might be missing? WEDNESDAY — PRICE THE DEAL Run the numbers, establish your walk-away and build your offer ladder. THURSDAY — MAKE THE OFFER Move from analysis to action. Structure and make the offer. FRIDAY — WIN THE NEGOTIATION Follow up, negotiate and move the deal forward. By Friday, the goal is that you have either made a credible offer — or reached a confident, evidence-backed NO-GO. BEFORE MONDAY 👇 1. Introduce yourself below Tell us: - Where you're based - Your property experience - What you're looking to achieve 2. Find ONE property to bring to the Challenge. Don't overthink it. Pick something real that you can actually work on. 3. Check the Classroom + Calendar. Make sure you've found the ONE DEAL Challenge Classroom area and can see the live session links in the Calendar. Then comment I'M IN below. See you Monday. Let's find a deal. 👊
