The Property Thing Live - 12th Feb 2026 - Guillaume Black

Great deals don’t come from Rightmove alerts and hope.

In a market where margins are tighter, lending is stricter, and competition is sharper, the winners aren’t the loudest buyers – they’re the best deal finders.

This month, The Property Thing welcomes Guillaume Black, founder of Property Filter, one of the UK’s most powerful deal-sourcing platforms used by investors to uncover below-market-value opportunities, motivated sellers, and creative acquisition angles long before they ever hit the portals.

Guillaume will break down how professional investors consistently source BMV buy-to-lets, HMOs, conversions, and development opportunities by going direct-to-vendor, using data-led targeting, assisted sales, lease options, and strategic off-market approaches.

This session is not about chasing unicorn deals. It’s about building a repeatable system for sourcing property in today’s market – one that removes emotion, reduces competition, and puts you in front of sellers who actually need solutions.

Expect a behind-the-scenes look at how smart investors use tools like Property Filter to stack the odds in their favour, control deal flow, and scale without relying on luck.
