Just a few years ago we both had careers in education. Sarah was Director of Learning at a UK charity and Kathryn was a Senior Lecturer at a university. We had both worked hard in careers we loved for over 20 years.
In 2017 all that changed. With huge cuts within the education sector and the charity in difficulty, Sarah was made redundant. It turned out to be a blessing in disguise. She had been struggling for 5 years with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and this gave her an opportunity to focus on restoring her health.
We already had a small portfolio and realised that property could offer more freedom and choice than we’d had in our careers. Later in 2017 Kathryn was offered voluntary redundancy and grabbed it with both hands!
Since then we have worked steadily to build a portfolio which provides us with an income and gives some of the most vulnerable in our society a safe, comfortable place to call home. We’ve learnt so much along the way, have created connections with many brilliant people, and realised that we have more transferrable skills and experience than we first thought!
