Good Luck Everyone







hey everyone, well its Monday the 9th and the last day of the "if we can you can" challenge and i just wanted to say a big good luck to all the finalists and no doubt we will all bump into each other soon!






Its been a busy few weeks with all the Blogging, newspapers taking photos, black tie dinners and meeting new people, i can honestly say i will be gutted if i dont win but on the other hand i can't believe i made it this far.






i have a new staff member starting next monday to run the office side of things which will take some work off me, so im looking foreward to that!






Well at least the sun is shining so im off down to the beach with the dog and surf is forecast mid week so not much to complain about really,

Rain Rain go away!


Well its been about a week since i last blogged! I have been really busy since the bank holiday weekend, not really stood still, i havn't even had time to surf! but im not complaining ya can never be too busy especially when your a new start up.




I have just taken over a large portfolio of 22 properties off one Landlord, but its a bit of a mess all the tenants are on housing benefit and in arrears for one reason or another so i have been in touch with the housing benefit & homeless prevention department for the last two weeks trying to get it all sorted while the Landlord is breathing down my neck telling me he wants his money or them evicting but its not their fault.




To top it all off its pouring down and the gutter above my office is broken so all the water is landing on my office and leaking through the windows, so im having a battle mopping it up as im typing this but im quickly running out of dry towels.




What i have found out in the last five months of been open is that just when ya think everything is going smoothly and ya out of the woods, something pops up for ya to deal with, but thats half the fun...being challenged!




Not long untill the results are in so get texting. If you want to vote for me text "challenge nathan robinson" to 07624803199 !




speak soon, nat
