Being in a foreign country didn’t stop our guest, Flora Russo, from chasing her passions. Today on the Fire In The Belly Podcast, Flora shares with Pete stories on her move to UK (from Italy) and her interesting property journey.
Some wouldn’t even imagine starting a business in a place they don’t know. But Flora is strong-willed and quick-witted. When she had the inkling she would flourish in property investment in London, she learned as much as she could. She mastered the buy-to-let property strategy and then expanded her property portfolio in just two years.
Do you have the guts to the same? Learn more about Flora and property sourcing when you tune in today.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
When Flora’s passionate about something, she moves quickly—she doesn’t need convincing from others. When it comes to earning, she grinds hard. Her only problem, though not that big, was that traditional schooling didn’t really work for her. If she doesn’t see that she’s getting the value (as she should), she loses interest. So, she learned on her own by getting herself out there.
Where is your place? Flora is an Italian entrepreneur who’s staying in London. Though her loved ones and friends are back in her hometown, she doesn’t see continuing her life and career there anymore. She explored, tried to learn different cultures, and found somewhere she can be herself. Wherever she’s happy, it’s where she stays.
Working for yourself, having a business of your own, sounds very inviting. But let’s not kid ourselves, it’s not that easy. With hope and positivity should come action. Have a thorough plan beforehand.
Flora also focuses on single-let for families. It’s key to research the area beforehand. Flora had to talk to the neighbourhood, observe as well as keep up to date on the latest property news.
Flora is now an expert in buy-to-let’s and is very excited to explore other strategies. She wants to expand her portfolio into something big so that someday, as she says, she doesn’t have to worry about getting out of bed to work.
BEST MOMENTS
“I learned so much after what happened… about what I really want to be and what I don’t want to be.”
“We should teach more about business at school and how to manage your money because that’s probably most the important thing to know in life.”
“Does money really make you happy? Of course, it does… but it’s not everything.”
“I’m going to do everything I want in life.”
“I leverage as much as possible because I believe I have to focus my time and energy in finding new investors.”
