The Property Solopreneur Podcast
Dec 11, 2023I speak to Rachel Troughton about my story in property, how it didn't exactly have a dream start.
As a single mother with zero experience in property development, a marketing background, and a love for challenges, I had to rebuild the family development firm with 25 houses to build, a truckload of debts, and money to construct barely two.
In this episode, I share my biggest wins and losses, my thoughts on being a woman in the male-dominated construction and property industry, how I transitioned into a CEO mindset, and more.
What Is Covered:
- How I got into property development
- Turning COVID restrictions into opportunities
- My rookie mistakes and what I learned from them
- What drew me to stay in property after I "saved" the family business
- The adjustments I made to start operating as the CEO of the company
- What it’s like to be the woman in charge of a development site
