Valter Pontes came from humble beginnings on a fairly remote island off the coast of Africa to being written about in Forbes magazine.
He attributes all his success to reading books. Lots of them!
Valter started his UK property portfolio by dropping out of university and using his student loan to sign up for a year long education course.
On the course, he learned to source property for others. And with the profits from his sourcing business. He started his own portfolio.
In this episode, we discuss my top ten UK property investment books which I reviewed in Episodes 58-68.
Valter also explains:
· Why he asks people to read 120 books before they start working with him
· Why he divides books into three categories: personal development, general business knowledge and specific business knowledge
· Why for every four properties he buys in the north, he buys one in the south
· How he sources property
· How he finds good builders in a new investment area
· Why he also invests in the U.S.
