Acknowledgements

My journey to this point in time would not have been so exciting and fulfilling without the support from my wonderful wife, Rachel. You have been, and still are, many things to me; my loving, caring and considerate wife of 27 years; mother of our children; companion and friend; and diligent business partner. Thank you for your patience while I have been writing this book. I love you very much.

I am thankful for the support of my children; both now young adults with a lifetime ahead of them. You have given me so much joy and happiness and I look forward, with great excitement, to see where your paths lead you.

This book could not have been written if I had not started investing in property: so I would like to thank Tim who started me and Rachel on this path; and Jonathan, Neil R and Neil W who helped us purchase and manage our first few houses. Without knowing it, you all transformed our lives; we are so grateful.

Since I retired from my day job, I have met, and have been influenced by, so many fantastic people from various backgrounds: property colleagues; business owners; inspirational speakers; entrepreneurs; all of whom I owe a great debt to, for shaping my thoughts and giving me experiences that have led me to write this book. In particular, I thank Steve Bolton, Daniel Priestley and the KPI community for starting me off and actually making this book happen.

I also thank my friends and colleagues who reviewed my draft manuscripts and helped me to develop this book into what it is today. In particular, my thanks go to Lee and Gervaise Cerio, Francis and Jane Dolley and John Cato for your help in giving me direction from time to time. You all provided great insights, encouragement and added value brilliant.
