He Quit Being a Vet… Then Built a Property Empire

from 🎙 Omz Under The Hammer Podcast 🏡💡 · host omerpx

From veterinary surgeon to full-time property investor, Francisco Diaz shares an incredible journey through the world of UK property investing. In this episode of the OMZ Property Podcast, Francisco opens up about how he went from working as a vet at Imperial College London to building a substantial property portfolio, including HMOs, below-market-value deals, and a major development project that turned an old pub into a high-end 13-room asset. This is a brutally honest conversation about the reality of property investing, the wins, the mistakes, the stress, the tax changes, the challenges of self-managing, and what it really takes to build long-term wealth through property. We cover: How Francisco bought multiple properties in the “good old days” The deal where he completed and got money back Why HMOs became his preferred strategy The luxury 13-bed development that nearly went wrong The architect error that caused huge problems Why he eventually left his stable career as a vet The truth about incorporation, tax planning, and avoiding bad advice Why landlords can’t afford to “wing it” anymore in 2026 How to balance property business, family life, and freedom Whether you’re a landlord, developer, investor, or just starting out in property, this episode is packed with lessons from someone who has been through multiple market cycles and adapted at every stage.
