In this episode, we're joined by Guillaume Black, CEO and co-founder of Property Filter, and a seasoned property investor. After years of investing in both France and the UK, Guillaume grew frustrated with wasting time on property viewings with unmotivated sellers.

We explore how this innovative tool is transforming the property investment process and Guillaume's mission to streamline deal-finding for investors.
