	“ ” Dear Jim Thank you for a brilliant couple of days with you and your team. I greatly appreciate your generosity, hospitality and knowledge that you shared with me and that your team did as well. As you stress in your book - a lot (of life) turns on getting on and doing it - trying it, and continuing to learn as you go. With your generous help I think I am at that stage and now need to get on and have a go. I hope that I might be able to continue to use you as a guide and mentor as I go? Paul Brilliant March 2009

TESTIMONIAL

"There is absolutely nothing to beat shadowing a group of active professionals about their busy daily work as a way of learning! Total immersion! You absorb the details through all your senses and your pores as well. If you want to know the ins and outs of running a successful HMO investment business, Jim Haliburton and his team are the top of the tree. They know their stuff from years of experience and take great pride in passing their knowledge on to you. Friendly, welcoming and enthusiastic, you are swept off by one member of staff after another to join them on their round to see a range of properties.

From the viewing of a new potential property for conversion, to the building and conversion process itself, property presentation and pricing, to viewings for new tenants, to rent collection and problem solving, right through to an eviction and trashing- you can see the whole business process in all its facets. Each member of staff you are with is happy to discuss the details of what you are seeing. The whole process is a rapid learning environment that outs the depth and detail on Jims excellent course materials. Add to that a bunch of new friends and I can thoroughly recommend the process. I brought my first property from conversion to an HMO three days later as a result! "
