- Jeremy's Expert-Busting Series
“To go from novice property investor to expert, the 1st thing you need to do is write a book on property investing.
It seems like being an expert is as simple as having an opinion and sharing it confidently.

- Jeremy Sheppard
He is a human that makes mistakes like the rest of us. I know this will outrage some of his believers. So this blog is not for them.

But property investors need to remember that...
