This is one of the most frequently asked questions relating to UK property on Google and this episode will help you come to your own conclusion.

Akhil Patel is one of the world’s leading experts on the 18 Year Property Cycle, and the title of his book on the subject, ‘The Secret Wealth Advantage’ gives a clue as to how important it could be to learn all about it.

This is one of my favourite episodes ever, so make sure to listen. And then listen again!

During the show, we discuss the following and much, much more:

· Akhil Patel’s book, "The Secret Wealth Advantage"

· Investment and business decisions during the cycle

· Decoupling of property prices from rent towards the top of the cycle
