Not just training
Not just training, but a fantastic community!
Some great coaches giving 1:1 coaching on all manner of issues you may come across as a property investor- whether that be a first time investor or someone with 10s of years of experience.
The in person events are engaging and energising. Richard A is a particularly experienced coach who knows exactly how to navigate the ever changing property landscape! A fantastic guy with great experience and energy!

Hi Jon,
Really appreciate you sharing this, and I like how you summed it up as more than just training.
The focus is always on giving clear guidance through coaching, real examples, and practical steps people can actually apply, whether they’re just starting out or already experienced. That’s what helps people actually move forward with it.
Great to hear you enjoyed the in-person side as well. There’s a different feel when everyone’s in the room, and it allows us to go deeper into real scenarios and answer things properly on the spot.
Richard will be pleased with the mention too, he keeps things very real and focused on what’s actually happening in the market.
We’re also proud of the community around it, but it’s always built on the foundation of the training and coaching first.
Thanks again for taking the time to share this.
Warm regards,
Steve Doran Property Training Team

Academy is amazing!
I joined the academy in October 2025 as a complete novice and the training provided is second to none. Not only are there comprehensive training material provided but Q&As from a variety of areas and support calls from dedicated coaches. My two most recent have been with Andrew Clayton and Richard Aylward. From both calls my questions have been answered, no question is a daft question, they supported me to understand my strategy better and provide clear actionable tasks for me to do to ensure that I continue to move forward on my journey. These coaching sessions are invaluable and I have received so much individual support through them. All of the coaches within the academy are amazing, and I feel lucky to have come across this academy, and joining is the best decision I have made. In addition the networking with other academy members gives additional support and even though I am doing my property journey on my own, I certainly don't feel alone!

Hi Julie,
It’s great to read this, especially knowing you started out completely new to it all.
We all know how difficult that first step can feel, so it’s really good to hear you’ve found your feet and are moving forward with more clarity. Having somewhere you can ask questions freely and actually get clear direction makes such a difference.
It sounds like those sessions have helped you turn things into real next steps, which is where everything starts to move.
It’s also nice to hear how supported you’ve felt along the way. Doing this on your own but still feeling like you’ve got people around you is exactly how it should feel.
Sounds like you’ve built some really good momentum already, and that’s only going to keep growing from here.
Really appreciate you taking the time to share this.
Warm regards,

Finally, proper property education that works.
I looked at a couple of property academies before joining, but none of them felt right too much “sell, sell, sell” or putting other academies down. Then I came across Steve Doran’s Property Academy, took the plunge, and honestly, it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made.
The level of support, knowledge, and genuine care from the trainers is incredible, all of them go above and beyond. The one to one sessions alone are worth their weight in gold so thank you Richard Leonard, Helen, Andy Clayton, Ben, and of course Steve.
It’s made me realise something simple but powerful you train for most careers in life, yet so many people, myself included, go into property without really knowing what they’re doing. Since joining the Academy, I’ve learned so much and can clearly see the mistakes I made before. I only wish I had joined years ago.
If you’re serious about property and want proper guidance, support, and education, I can’t recommend this Academy enough and one last point you are never on your own.

Hi Anne,
This was a really nice one to read, you can tell there’s a lot behind it.
That feeling of finally finding something that just sits right is a big one, especially after looking around and not quite connecting with other places. It’s good to hear it felt different in a way that made you comfortable taking that step.
Also love what you said about not feeling on your own. We’re really proud of the community we’ve built, and hearing stories of people connecting and supporting each other is something we genuinely enjoy seeing, so it’s great to know that’s been your experience too.
Sounds like you’ve taken a lot from it already, and that kind of clarity makes everything feel a bit easier going forward.
Really appreciate you sharing this.
Warm regards,

Best decision for me
I have been a member of the Academy with Steve and Helen-Louise since June 2025 not long after the Academy began. I joined to expand my journey and portfolio in property investment and to learn more about the business of property. The knowledge from Steve and all the coaches is excellent and I truly feel they want me to succeed. There is a lot of training modules and self directed learning to do, but there is always support via weekly zoom calls and direct one to one coaching. There are opportunities for networking with other members of the Academy as well. If you are prepared to put the knowledge you learn into practice and work towards your goals then the Academy is a fantastic investment.

Hi Dilusha,
Really appreciate you taking the time to share this.
It sounds like you’ve made a solid commitment to your journey, and that consistency will take you a long way. When people stay engaged and keep showing up, that’s usually when things start to come together.
Glad it’s been a positive experience for you so far, and it’ll be good to see how things continue to progress for you over time.

Been on the academy for almost a year…
Been on the academy for almost a year with my son… the experience has been no less than amazing. My only regret was having made a purchase prior to the academy, that was far from the best and I would never have made this decision now, after having learnt so much. On all fronts from education to networking, I can’t fault SD. I have also recommended to friends and family. Not sure I have ever given such a great recommendation before, but seriously very well merited.

Hi Sarah,
This was really lovely to read.
Spending that amount of time in the academy and getting that kind of experience out of it is exactly what it’s there for. It’s not just about the initial learning, it’s the ongoing support, the coaching, and being able to keep building over time that really makes the difference.
Alongside that, having regular calls, access to coaches, and a space where you can ask questions, get feedback on deals, and stay on track really helps people keep progressing rather than feeling stuck or unsure what to do next.
Also, doing this alongside your son is something quite special, not many people get to share that kind of journey, and it’s great to see you both getting so much from it.
We’re really proud of the academy community as well. Seeing people connect, share ideas, and support each other as they grow is a big part of what makes it work, and it’s good to hear that’s been your experience.
We genuinely appreciate you recommending us, especially when it’s not something you usually do, that says a lot.
Warm regards,

Be prepared for the upsale of the academy courses
I expect this review to be removed due to the company claiming this not to be genuine or that I was not a legitimate attendee.... I can assure you I was. How else would I know the days' content. I attended a 99 pound two day event entitled wealth accelerator. As an experienced landlord at a crossroads I was attending out of interest and to firm up my decision regarding the future. Day 1 had a few useful nuggets although it was a long day and mostly surface info across many areas including R2R, serviced accommodation, HMOs, flipping, taxation and private finance, without in depth exploration. Day 2 was mainly trying to sell the academy course costing about 14k to attendees with success stories/ case studies. I am guessing this is where any in depth info is provided and network of legal, accountant, financers etc. As I didn't want to join the academy or do package deals I tuned out on Day 2. If you attend expecting to learn in depth knowledge it is not for you but if you attend it with the knowledge that there may be a hard sell for the academy you will be okay. The positive reviews are likely from people who signed up to the academy to whom I wish the best of luck.

Hi Jude, thank you for attending the two-day Property Wealth Accelerator and for taking the time to share your feedback.
The purpose of the event is to provide a detailed and practical deep dive into multiple property strategies including HMOs, serviced accommodation, taxation and finance across two full training days designed to give attendees both strategic understanding and practical direction. Many hundreds of attendees have found the level of detail extremely helpful when building their strategy. We also offer a money-back guarantee after the first day for anyone who feels the training has not met their expectations, so attendees can make that decision with confidence.
The Academy session you mentioned is an optional session that attendees can choose whether or not to attend. It is designed for those who specifically want to understand what ongoing coaching and support looks like after the event. There is no obligation to join and many people attend the two days purely for education.
We are pleased you found some useful insights during the training and we wish you every success with your next steps in property.
Warm regards,
Steve Doran Property Training Team

Signed up for the 2 day seminar
Signed up for the 2 day seminar. I found it to be extremely informative. Steve & Helen and in fact all of the presenters were very easy going, helpful and full of valuable information. It is a very good course for anyone wanting to get an idea of what can be done with property and how to make money from doing it. Excellent value for money.

Incredible 2 Days
Incredible 2 Days, Steve, Helen and their team, share a huge amount of valuable information, R2R, HMO, BRR, Commercial, Private Finance, Analysing deals etc etc (make sure you have a note pad, and take photos or screen shot the slides- you don't want to be trying to remember it all) gleaned from years of property experience. Very engaging, and their previous mentees have inspiring stories. If youre looking for the best guidance on your property journey, don't waste any time, jump on with Steve, Helen and their team

It’s great to see how much you took from the two days, especially with the range of strategies you’ve mentioned.
You’re right, there’s a lot covered, but the aim is to give people a real understanding of how everything connects, from sourcing and analysing deals through to different ways of structuring and scaling. Glad that came across and felt useful.
Also appreciate you pointing out the real-life experience and stories shared. That’s something Steve and Helen bring naturally, mixing years of hands-on experience with a bit of humour to keep things engaging.
Thank you James for your kind review.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
I’ve attended many webinars both free and paid from different academies. I can honestly say these 2 days have been great value, very motivational and I’ve learnt SO much!
I feel a genuine warmth from Steve, Helen and the speakers/coaches and this webinar included information I’ve not had from other academies (and I think I’ve attended the majority!)
I would ABSOLUTELY recommend Steve Doran’s property training. HUGE VALUE! Thank you to all involved in these 2 incredible days!

Hi Mrs C,
It’s great to read your feedback and how you’ve described the training.
The point about it not being just “talking heads” really stands out, as that’s something we’re very conscious of. The focus is always on walking through real processes step by step, so people can actually see how things work in practice, not just hear about them.
We also know how overwhelming property can feel at the start, especially with all the jargon, so a big part of the two days is breaking that down and making everything feel clear, structured and achievable.
Across the training, we cover a range of strategies, deal analysis, and the practical steps behind building a property business, so it’s great to hear it gave you a better sense of what’s possible.
Glad you found it valuable and well put together.

“Walking the walk” is something that means a lot to us, as everything that’s taught comes from real experience, not just theory. Steve and Helen have both built their journeys from the ground up, so being able to pass that on in a relatable way is a big part of the training.
We also bring in some of our students to share their journeys step by step. Hearing real situations, including the challenges they’ve faced and how they’ve worked through them, is an important part of anyone's training.
It’s great to hear you found the presenters knowledgeable and personable as well, that balance makes a big difference when taking everything in.
Glad you felt it was money well spent.

Steve and Helen both put a lot into making sure the knowledge is not only insightful but also motivating, so people leave feeling ready to push on and take action. As Michelangelo said, “worse than aiming high and failing is aiming low and succeeding,” and that mindset is something we really try to pass on.
