Let’s dive into this week’s Ask Rob & Rob, answering two new listener questions… 

(0:44) Andrew's an expat investor who’s been quoted £5K for his mortgage arrangement fee, which feels steep to him. His broker says it’s due to the added risk of being overseas. He’s worried that if needs to remortgage every few years at a similar cost, it could eat into the benefits of an interest-only mortgage, especially with inflation. He turns to Rob & Rob for advice on whether this fee is fair and how it might affect his portfolio strategy.  (4:24) Adam’s curious to know w...

Since the early days of the podcast, Rob & Rob have been guided by a little something you may have heard of called the 18-Year Property Cycle. This has been a compass for many, designed to make property investment more predictable and help you make informed decisions. 

 But predictability sparks curiosity: where are we in the cycle? Is it on track... has it failed us this time around? Join us as The Robs share their views and provide answers to your questions. Will they continue to rely on the cycle, or are they finally done with it?
