In this Six Rounds episode, we sit down with Steve Hammond, builder, developer, landlord, and co-host of the Developers Network in Birmingham.
Steve never planned to work in construction. One unexpected project led to another, and before he knew it, he’d built a career spanning extensions, developments, and a growing property portfolio. In this conversation, he shares the real turning points: scaling challenges, mindset shifts, and why learning to step back was just as important as learning to build.
It’s an honest look at what happens when hard work alone isn’t enough, and how the right systems, team, and thinking unlock the next level.

In this episode, we sit down with Vicky Sherwood, a pharmaceutical professional and driven property investor building a serious portfolio alongside a full-time career and family life.
Vicky is an example of how to expertly play the property game to achieve Financial Freedom. Haste not Speed, Laser Focus not Shiny Penny.
Vicky shares what it really looks like to chase financial freedom when you’ve got kids, a demanding job, and limited hours, and why she’s chosen cash-flow strategies like HMOs and serviced accommodation to create long-term control (without betting the house).
This one’s practical, relatable, and packed with real-world honesty. From early-morning graft to building a portfolio with the right people around you.

In this episode, we sit down to unpack Article 4 directions and what they really mean for property investors and developers.
We break down, in straightforward terms, how Article 4 works, why so many councils across Greater Manchester are adopting it, and the impact it has on C3–C4 HMO conversions. From tighter planning controls to protected asset values, changing supply, and rising barriers to entry. This episode explores both sides of the debate.
Is Article 4 a problem… or an opportunity in disguise?
No jargon. Just a clear look at what’s happening and how investors can navigate it.

In this episode, we sit down with Adam Lawrence, one of the UK’s most experienced property entrepreneurs, with close to 900 property deals under his belt.
Adam’s story is far from typical. From bar work and fruit machines… to Oxford University… to now running one of the largest JV-based portfolios in the country, he shares a refreshingly honest look at the realities of building long-term wealth in the UK.

What nearly 900 deals actually teaches you
Why the UK economy isn’t as doomed as people think
The truth about HMOs, leases, and the future of renting
How compounding really plays out over 10–15 years
And the biggest mistakes he’s made — including the ones that cost money
