Creating Property Opportunities in Norwich Norfolk
"Never Gonna Get Rich Selling Your Time For Money"
I realised long ago that working 40-60 hours a week for someone else wouldn’t make me rich. It gave me a busy, comfortable life, but I became an expert at spending money without saving much. I needed a way to generate daily income while building assets that grew over time.
I was excited to discover alternative income streams and passive income—ways to earn money while you sleep. While managing a busy career as creative designer, i slowly purchased simple Buy-to-Let properties in the background, creating an alternative income stream not dependant on the hours i worked. It grew in value and has provided me security and peace of mind durning the rollercoaster of life. "investing in property was the best decision i ever made"
My Journey from Creative Director to Property Developer
Passion for Graphic Design and Property Development
I’ve been fortunate to combine my two passions—graphic design and property development—throughout my career. After 20 years in design and over a decade in property, I now help other professionals create a second income stream for a more secure future.
How It All Began
I originally studied electrical engineering when I left school, drawn to its problem-solving aspects and hands-on experience in construction. But at 21, I craved a different lifestyle. Moving to London, I leaned on my artistic skills and some basic Photoshop lessons to launch a design career, starting with flyers for local bars and clubs.
That small beginning led to a turning point—a PR agency spotted my work and invited me to pitch for Sony PlayStation. We won the contract, and within three years, I had my own studio with a team of designers. We worked with major clients like Sony, Virgin, and Telstar. Life was exciting, but the success came at a cost.
The constant pressure—clients changing their minds, tight deadlines, managing a team, and handling the business side like payroll and taxes—left me burnt out. Financially, we were thriving, but I felt trapped, far from the freedom I envisioned.
A Game-Changing Lesson
My mentor gave me advice that stuck: “You’ll never get rich selling your time for money. Rich people have multiple income streams. You need to diversify.”
That’s when my property journey began. I knew I needed a Plan B—something independent of my creativity, low maintenance, and consistent. I bought my first Buy-to-Let property, and it was the best decision of my life. Over the years, building a property portfolio has provided a steady income, balancing the highs and lows of life in the design industry and offering true financial freedom
