Tej Talks: Being Better

Building a £1.5m portfolio in 2 years, £10,000 a month passive income, Social Housing contracts, and blind-buying a brothel at auction with Saif Derzi

Saif has built up a big portfolio in a short space of time. His most interesting property was an old brothel, which legally had no access to it, inevitably this scared off most investors as you wouldn't want to buy something you couldn't see - who knows what danger is lurking inside there! Saif wasn't afraid, and bought it. When he viewed it, there weren't many unexpected horrors, apart from a hole in the floor and all the old needles...


He converted it into a lovely space that now is leased by a Social/Housing Association, that pay guaranteed rent for a certain period of years, all management and repairs are covered by them. As easy as that right?


We also discuss goal setting, and how you can break your long-term goals down into weekly activities that will contribute to the success of it and why it's important to look at the bigger picture at the same time.


Saif doesn't stop - the week before this Podcast is released, he had 3 Commercial Conversions exchanged and in legals.


He's also giving away 2 30 min FREE mentoring phone calls - all you have to do is follow us both on Instagram, leave a review for the TejTalks Podcast on iTunes/Podcast app or the Facebook page, let me know and I'll enter you in the competition.

  • THE 6-Step Solution for Solving ALL Problems

    07:00
    Let’s get this straight: Business isn't for the faint-hearted. Over the years I've had to deal with so much shit — rogue builders, no-show cleaners, and suppliers who can’t keep a deadline to save their lives. But guess what? I mastered how to turn all that mess into a money-making machine, and now it's your shot. Here's just a snippet of my 6-step framework:1️⃣ Cause and Consequence — get to the root and see what’s at stake.2️⃣Map your Timelines — track when things need to happen, and set those deadlines.3️⃣ Allies in Action — your crew is crucial, because no one wins solo4️⃣ Crafting your Fix — design a solution that’s not just a patch but a full-on fix.5️⃣ From Plans to Reality — execute with precision, don’t let those plans collect dust.6️⃣ Learn from the Journey — every problem is a lesson. Get smarter, get stronger.This isn’t just about damage control — it’s about owning the process and leading the charge. If you're spinning in circles, pretending you’re “too busy” to address the chaos, then you’re not just stuck — you’re sinking. Take control, make smart moves, and turn those problems into stepping stones.
