In this episode of Your Property Network, Ant is joined by portfolio landlord and full-time property professional Rebecca Alcock, who shares her journey from corporate life as a Chartered Accountant to building a thriving, cash-flowing property business.
Rebecca talks candidly about how she scaled a portfolio of 60 HMO rooms in Sheffield, why stability and predictability have shaped her strategy, and how her focus has evolved from aggressive cash flow to long-term capital appreciation. They explore HMOs vs blocks of flats, working within strict Article 4 areas, raising funds through private investors, and why simpler deals often outperform complex projects in the long run.
The conversation also dives into the realities of leaving a well-paid corporate career, juggling family life, avoiding burnout, building a team, and creating a property business that supports lifestyle freedom — not stress.
Whether you’re starting out, scaling up, or considering the leap into property full-time, this episode is packed with practical insight, honest lessons, and real-world perspective.
