Happy Tuesday! We’ve got two new great questions to tackle – let’s dive in!  (0:42) Johnny’s looking to sell his London properties and reinvest in areas with better growth potential. He’s interested in off-plan developments but is concerned after hearing about scams involving unreliable developers. Johnny asks Rob & Rob how he can ensure the developer is trustworthy and what due diligence he should do to protect himself from any potential risks.  (5:25) Gary’s wondering if he really needs a solicitor to review the mortgage for his limited company and break down all the details, or if it's straightforward enough to handle on his own.  Enjoy the show?  Leave us a review on Apple Podcasts - it really helps others find us!  Sign up for our free weekly newsletter, Property Pulse  Send us your question by calling us on 013 808 00035 and leaving a message with your name and question (normal UK call rates apply) or click here to leave a recording via your computer instead.  Find out more about Property Hub Invest
