Future episodes will feature insights from leading industry figures such as Claire Yates, Heather Staff, Simon Gates and Simon Leadbetter, who will share their unique perspectives on where the industry is heading and how innovation is shaping the future of property as well as airing some controversial opinions!

We want to go beyond the headlines to understand what drives these industry leaders and how they see the future unfolding. It’s about sharing knowledge, challenging ideas and offering our listeners a deeper understanding of the property world.”
