In this episode, Paul walks through a real consult where an "8% rental yield" turned out to be a real return of just 1.33% once tax, costs and inflation were stripped out. The numbers don't lie, and the headline yield the seller quotes is rarely the return you actually get.

In this episode, he covers how to turn property from a poor investment into a powerful one, including HMOs, buying inside your pension fund, interest-only loans, the capital allowances 95% of landlords never claim, and the corporate and local authority tenants most investors completely overlook.

If you own a rental property, or you're thinking of buying one, this is the episode to watch before you do anything else.

In this episode, Paul walks through a real-world example of how financial planning can lead to a massive reduction in the tax you pay.

Paul explains the difference between a salesperson and a true planner, and how dovetailing reliefs can drop your effective tax rate to as low as 0%. He also covers why surplus cash on your company balance sheet is a hidden risk, how it can disqualify you from Entrepreneur and Retirement Relief.

If you're a business owner, high earner or anyone with surplus income, this is the kind of planning the high-street market won't show you.

In this episode Paul looks back at 10 years of returns across the four main asset classes and reveals why two of them actually lost money in real terms once inflation is stripped out.

But the real question isn't "what's the best investment?". It's "what's the best investment for me?" Your age, timeframe, existing assets and tax position change the answer completely. And as always, tax is the silent killer of returns.
