KEY TAKEAWAYS

• Dan emphasises the importance of treating property as a business and implementing systems to scale and grow effectively.
• Starting with rent-to-rent to test the waters, then moving on to joint ventures and larger deals, Dan highlights the importance of progressing through different investment strategies.
• The current market conditions, with uncertainty and potential policy changes, present unique opportunities for property investors.
• Dan advocates for the concept of "living off the steam," where the aim is to work once, earn forever by investing in low-risk, low-return assets for long-term financial freedom.
• Finding what you enjoy and excelling at it is key to long-term success and fulfilment in property investing, according to Dan's perspective.

BEST MOMENTS

"I've sort of completed the game up to the level I want to get to, and I'm really looking at what my next passion is, purpose is."

"The aim of the game is to live off the steam. So without going too much into it, the only aim of the game is to live off the steam is to work hard, earn once and then live forever."

"You're going to work anyway, why not find something you enjoy? Do it really work really hard? Make some good money, save it, be diligent, be shrewd, invest it, and play the long game."

"Life is definitely too short. It's all about living. So try and find what you're doing. And I think sometimes just in property, people think, well, I'm not really passionate about property."
