FP TV (EP 177) SMOOTH MOVES: Eliminate the Stress When Selling Your Home In Fife
Most moves have a lot riding on them, and, if you’re thinking of selling your home, there’s probably a good reason behind it.
Perhaps you’re moving in with a partner, expanding your family, relocating for work, thinking about schools, considering downsizing, or simply moving to your ultimate dream location.
None of these are small events. They’re pivotal life moments filled with anticipation, and when the next chapter of your life depends on the sale of your home, it can be an emotional time.
Join Jim Parker and Richard Cook as they discuss ways that could help you navigate your move smoothly.
In 2023, contrary to several grim forecasts, Fife’s housing market defied the anticipated 8% to 15% fall. Key factors cushioning the market included robust labour conditions, strategic lender policies, and stringent mortgage affordability testing.
As we look towards 2024, cautious optimism prevails amidst regulatory constraints and shifting mortgage rates, suggesting a stable trend in house prices. This period presents an opportune moment for Fife homeowners and buyers to make informed, strategic decisions in an evolving market landscape. Read the article to find exactly what happened to Fife house prices in 2023 and what they probably will be by the end of the year.
EP 106: The Wealth Creation Show: Succeed or Die Trying
Success is often seen as the ultimate goal, but what does it really mean to pursue success with unwavering determination?
“Succeed or Die Trying” encapsulates the idea of relentless pursuit, a mindset that acknowledges challenges but refuses to be deterred by them. It’s about embracing failure as a stepping stone, not an obstacle.
Do want to know the tools to achieving success and how to navigate that fight to get there!?
Luckily, you don’t need to head back to school to understand this as Lettings Director, Richard Cook and one of the UK’s most successful property investors, Jim Parker are on hand to discuss.

Building wealth is a goal that many people aspire to, but it can often seem like an overwhelming task. It takes time, effort, and discipline to be successful with this goal, so don’t be lured by get-rich-quick schemes and too-good-to-be-true opportunities that can send you down a dangerous path.

Spring has been the most popular season to buy and sell a home for as long as we can remember, and with good reason.
Plans are often hatched around the beginning of the year, and as the weather warms up and nature bursts into bloom, those plans swing into action.
Perhaps you want to move your family in time for the new school year to minimise disruption to your children. Or maybe you just love the idea of being in your next home by summer.
Whether it’s more space, a bigger garden, somewhere with room for an office or even downsizing, spring inspires many a move, with sellers and buyers coming out of hibernation.
Of course, as more homes come up for sale, the competition to secure a buyer gets stiffer. So, with spring just around the corner, now is the time to prepare your home to stand out in the new season.
With that in mind, our blog this week is packed with tips for successful spring viewings to give your home the edge and find a buyer fast.

Spring is usually the time of year when the largest numbers of buyers start registering with estate agents to find their next home. With winter nearly over we can look forward to Easter and Summer – family friendly locations like Dunfermline, Glenrothes, Leven, Cupar, Kirkcaldy, East Neuk and St Andrews see a lot of property market activity.
There is no season quite like spring. Moods start to lift as the days get longer and brighter; thoughts begin to shift from indoor nesting to outdoor fun; the idea of a garden or terrace for summer in a new home goes from a dream to a thought, to action.
Of all the reasons for moving home, downsizing can be the most overwhelming. It doesn’t matter if your home has become unmanageable or even if you know that moving to a smaller space will improve your life: just thinking about it can be incredibly daunting.
A lot comes down to the fear of leaving memories behind and giving away treasured possessions that have been part of your life for a long time. If you’ve lived somewhere for decades, raised a family there or have wonderful neighbours, saying goodbye might feel like a wrench.

EP58 THE WEALTH CREATION SHOW: Diary of a Property Investor Part 13
How I lost my first million and the lessons learned. You don’t often get to know how someone failed but when you do you can often learn more from this than their success.
In this episode Jim Parker and Richard Cook are going to talk about the steps that led to Jim losing a million and the lessons learned.
This is the warts and all, laid bare story of Jim’s journey retiring at 38 years old financially free and almost losing it all. We’ll be covering several issues on mental health, depression, addictive personality and suicide which for many might be disturbing and upsetting. If you need help in any way, please free phone The Samaritans on 116 123 or visit https://www.samaritans.org/?nation=scotland
Jim says, “It’s amazing that you’re judged a success by what people see, when they have no idea what is happening deep down within that person. If the next chapter in my story helps one person, it will have all been worth it”.
