Some of our favorite quotes from the show:

“One of the big, big changes at the beginning of this year is I stepped back from being CEO. I founded the company Metropole Properties in 1979, but we've been working with clients for almost 25 years now and I decided to step back and enjoy those things we're talking about.” – Michael Yardney

“I'd rather bring people up through education, through better jobs, through more skills, through good incentives from the government to allow them to buy their homes as well.” – Michael Yardney

“Usually, I've found that people who have had luck actually need to have the hubris, the ego, kicked out of them by the world doing it.” – Michael Yardney
