Today I’m delighted to welcome Saif Derzi back to the show.  He’s been a guest a couple of times now, and since it’s been a while since we released an episode I wanted to start with an update on what’s working for a couple of my favourite investors in the industry.  This week I’m talking to Saif, and next week I’ll be welcoming Jackie Tomes back to the podcast, before hopefully settling into a more traditional routine as we transition back to like in the UK for winter. 

Anyway, Saif operates at a volume I don’t see many other people even attempting, with over 140 purchases under his belt since he started investing back in 2017.  The numbers don’t even really make sense to me - that’s about 30 per year, and whilst they’ve not all been purchases for himself, it’s a crazy success story. 

Today we’re looking at the systems and processes that allow his business to operate at this scale, as well as where his focus is currently in the industry.
