Speakers in December
Adam Wale – Aben Interiors
Having seen a lot of property related programs on the TV, such as ‘Homes Under the Hammer’, ‘Location, Location, Location’, George Clarke’s multiple series, ‘Grand Designs’, I have always had a real interest in property. I would sit there flummoxed how the people on the programs had the money to buy property, renovate it, and sell/rent it, have the property value highly enough for them to get the money back out and go again! My wife Sammie also enjoyed these programs, especially seeing the spaces come to life by the designs that were shown. So, when there was an opportunity to go and learn about it, we jumped at the chance.
We’ve now invested in property for 7 years, and Sammie found her passion in property in the design of them. Along the way we have been praised for the designs in our own properties which then developed into other investors and developers asking us to design theirs for them. Off the back of that, we decided to invest in professional interior design courses and create Aben Interiors – An interior design company with a difference. We are property investors, we know what it’s like, we know how it all feels, and so we understand and can offer our investor knowledge as well as our design skills to others.
Over the years we have worked on a wide range of projects, from small and big HMOs, to SA units, to house flips, to business offices, and childcare nursery settings. We love the look on our client’s faces when a concept is presented to them that they fall in love with. Our aim is to influence the rental market in the right way, providing excellent living standards in rental accommodation. It was one of the main reasons we started investing in property ourselves, and now we can have a bigger impact on the market by helping other investors do the same.
At the Derby Property Meet I’ll be talking about the 5 key things that you can do when designing your properties to set them apart from the rest.
