Deanne Nelson
Senior Property Consultant

I’m Deanne Nelson, an Entrepreneur and Property Consultant passionate about helping others grow through business and investment. I bought my first house at 18, and that experience lit a fire in me. Since then, I’ve built businesses, scaled property portfolios, and mentored others to do the same. I believe every challenge holds the seed of a new opportunity.


My Story

My path wasn’t always smooth, life threw personal challenges my way, but I chose to dig deep and turn setbacks into stepping stones. Starting in childcare, I learned the ins and outs of leadership and team building. From there, I transitioned into property, scaling my investments and diversifying into business sectors that allowed me to create economic opportunities for others.

Now, with a strong portfolio and a wealth of practical experience, I help others grow through consulting, coaching, and mentorship. Whether it’s property deal analysis, portfolio building, or mindset mentoring, I’m passionate about sharing what I’ve learned to help others achieve their version of success.


“I believe smart property investment can create lasting impact for generations.”

Ade F-Stone
Senior Property Consultant

I’m Ade F-Stone, property investor, entrepreneur, and strategic dealmaker. I started in retail, building a national business, before shifting my focus to property investment and development. My goal is to help others spot opportunities, structure smart deals, and grow with confidence. For me, success is about resilience, vision, and making bold moves.

My Story

I’ve always seen challenges as opportunities. My entrepreneurial path began with a nationwide mobile phone business, where I built a retail brand that scaled to over 70 locations in partnership with T-Mobile. After successfully exiting that venture, I shifted into property — growing a multi-million-pound portfolio and championing innovative deal structures like the “Buy-Refurbance-Refinance-Rent” model.

Now, I focus on commercial property, bridging finance, and new developments. I support clients through strategic deal structuring, funding solutions, and block management, always aiming to stay ahead of industry shifts. My mission is to empower others to see opportunity in change and invest with confidence.

Property Investment Tips for First-Time Investors

November 16, 20252 min read

Getting started in property investment can be both exciting and overwhelming. First-time investors often face questions about financing, property selection, and long-term strategy. With the right approach, your first investment can lay the foundation for a profitable property portfolio.

1. Define Your Investment Goals

Before buying any property, clarify what you want to achieve:

  • Are you aiming for long-term capital growth or steady rental income?

  • What is your target return on investment?

  • How quickly do you want to expand your portfolio?

Clear goals will guide your property selection and investment strategy.

2. Research the Market Thoroughly

Knowledge is power in property investment. Consider:

  • High-demand areas with strong rental potential

  • Market trends in house prices and rental yields

  • Upcoming regeneration projects that may increase property value

Use online tools, local property reports, and speak with letting agents for accurate insights.

3. Budget for All Costs

Many first-time investors focus only on the purchase price, but total costs include:

  • Deposit and stamp duty

  • Legal fees and mortgage arrangement fees

  • Insurance and maintenance

  • Letting agent or management fees

  • Furnishings

Factoring in all costs ensures your investment remains profitable

4. Consider Property Type and Size

Your choice of property affects tenant demand and rental yield:

  • Flats or small houses: Often easier to rent, ideal for first-time investors

  • Family homes: Slightly higher management but may attract long-term tenants

  • Avoid specialised properties until you have more experience

5. Understand Financing Options

First-time investors should explore:

  • Buy-to-Let mortgages with appropriate deposit requirements

  • Interest-only vs repayment options

  • Lending criteria based on projected rental income

  • Bridging and short term finance

Speaking with a mortgage advisor or consultant helps secure the best financing.

6. Plan for Property Management

Decide whether you will manage the property yourself or hire a letting agent. Consider:

  • Tenant screening and references

  • Rent collection and arrears management

  • Repairs, maintenance, and legal compliance

Professional management can save time and reduce stress, especially for first-time landlords.

7. Think Long-Term

Successful property investment is about patience and strategy. Plan for:

  • Potential renovations or upgrades to increase value

  • Diversifying your portfolio over time

  • Tax implications and available reliefs

A long-term perspective ensures you build a sustainable and profitable property portfolio.


First-time property investment doesn’t have to be intimidating. By setting clear goals, researching the market, budgeting carefully, choosing the right property, and planning for management, you can make confident, informed decisions.
