Cheeky Bricks - All About Property

Show Notes

Jono, SJ and Richard talk about stamp duty in an episode recorded the day after the UK welcomed a new PM to number 10. What changes would the team encourage Andy Burnham to make? What could replace it?

Later, Richard’s Star Property selection is a castle, leading to a discussion about mottes and baileys – and SJ would like to apologise here for misinforming listeners because, as we all know, the motte is the mound and the bailey is the courtyard below - and Jono’s West Country Wisdom walk involves not one but two boat trips.

We hope you find these podcasts useful (and entertaining!). Tell us if you have any questions or suggestions about stamp duty, if you’d like to suggest another topic for the team to tackle, or if you’d like to send us a Property Porn brief:

Here’s the Property Porn brief for Episode 14: Assuming property is still cyclical, then some would say it could well be a great time to invest in London? You have inherited £3m from a great aunt who squirrelled away a few shares in Tesla 20 years ago.

And finally – SJ ran the Leeds marathon 2026 for the motor neuron disease charity The 4Ed Foundation. There’s still time to donate! Thank you: https://www.justgiving.com/page/propertyvision-marathonteam Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
