007: Olivia Conlon
Olivia owns and operates a property staging business, this means that they specialise in dressing serviced apartments, holiday lets, showhomes… you name it!
When Liv was younger her parents were both very into property, and investment strategies, so she had inspiration from a young age to do something more.
She was 16 when she left school, her first job was starting the property staging company. She was the only one of her peers to do so. She is 19 at the moment, her business has now flourished into something very substantial. ‘ the best time to start a business, is now ‘
Watching her mum and dad strive for something else was a huge factor in her wanting more. She knew a lot of unhappy people who hated their job, and she didn’t want to be one of them.
Last year Olivia’s business became a family one, with mother joining and making the booming business a mother/daughter duo. Liv was struggling to keep up with the demand of work, and she needed and extra set of hands after all, who can you trust more to operate in the business, than your mum.
Ali ( Olivia’s mother ) had been investing in a property in the wrong way for a substantial amount of time, until she attended a better standard of training courses, she began to achieve the results she was looking for. Initially beginning with simple buy to lets, which generated healthy cashflow, she broadened her horizon into the world of property flipping ( buying, refurbing, and selling on for a nice profit). Up until joining Olivia, she had always worked in the corporate sector. One day she decided to take the leap… she was finished making other peoples dreams a reality. She wanted more time with her family, and property is a vehicle that allows her to do that.
They are both new venturing out of the UK and taking on projects in Marbella! Working on Holiday homes and Serviced apartments out there. Clients don’t always want to use Property stagers for their businesses, some people just want to improve their home, the potential is truly uncapped.
