Michael Lawson is a Dubai based investor who rapidly scaled his portfolio whilst holding down a successful career and living about 3,000 miles away - and when I say rapidly, I’m talking to the tune of 15+ new purchases per year. 

How does he do this?  Well it’s a family business, and he has his mum back on the ground looking after more of the customer facing tasks while he focuses on the business growth and strategy; he keeps his attention on just two postcodes in Fife that he knows like the back of his hand - an approach I’ve always favoured rather than trying to cast your net too wide; and he’s kept things as simple as possible, with a portfolio made up predominantly of single lets. 

One of the reasons I love hosting this podcast is the constant reminder that there are so many different ways to make a successful career from property, and Michael gives us yet another perspective on how things can be done, so I’m sure you’ll get a ton of value from our discussion today. 

He also let slip after we stopped recording that he’s getting married next week, which will be before this podcast airs, so Michael, by the time you’re listening to this you’ll be a married man and I just want to wish you a huge congratulations and all the best to you and your new wife.  Now, let’s get into the show.
