A great question from one of my investors:

Hi Brett,

A little question was nagging me today Brett. In the current UK property investment circumstances, how many properties (or in cash terms if you prefer)

According to USFDA, a combination product is one composed of any combination of a drug and device; biological product and device; drug and biological product

do you consider as being the “tipping point” for a momentum to ensuring one can achieve the 7-10 properties without further leveraging one’s other resources such as one’s residential equity, other saving, other loans etc? In

; or drug, device, and biological product and fixed dose combination would include two or more combinations of drug.

Examples of combination products may in

ther words, is there a point where you consider a portfolio as having developed a self-sustaining momentum to ride on on its own steam but not having to wait for yonks for the equity to grow?

Great question! OK

lude drug-coated devices, drugs packaged with delivery devices in medical kits, and drugs and devices packaged separately but intended to be used together.

- the easy way to answer this questions is this: "it varies". The harder way I will detail below but it still leads to the same answer as before.

There are so many factors at play in your portfolio that no-one can say exactl

here is enormous increase in the number of combination products entering the market in the recent years. Combination products have proven advantages but fixe

when your portfolio will run off its own steam.

Strategy

This is always the starting point for every portfolio answer. The strategy you use will depend on the results you achieve. If you are prepared to put the time

d dose combinations are still in the process of convincing regulatory authority on their advantages over the single ingredient formulations.

Combination pro

in researching and finding deals, developing relationships with agents then you can probably pick up a deal here or there. The specific strategy I use is a new build one. This means that I choose having lots of time over some

ucts have become life saving products for the pharmaceutical companies who doesn’t have many innovative molecules in their product pipeline and have been inc

of the best deals that are out there.

Let me explain what I mean. If you are prepared to put the time and effort in you can search down some fantastic deals. Now normally these are simply one property here and one property

easingly used in the product life cycle management. Even the companies having product patents are trying to extend their product life cycle through the combi

here. The deals are everywhere but you need to put a lot of time and effort into finding them. More often than not these deals are better than any property club or investment consultancy could ever provide and the reason for

nation products and maximize the revenues. But the companies involved in this practice are overlooking that they are burdening the patients both economically

this is simple. Property investment clubs need to do bulk deals so they simply cannot provide the best of the best deals as they lose sometime in the volume. Now what you lose in the deal you pick up in the ease of purchase a

and physically. They need to rightly judge the benefits of the combination products and they have to even look at the risks involved when combining the produ

d the fact that you are putting very little time into the deal. This frees your time up for Lifestyle. For me lifestyle is more important than constantly pushing for the best deal.

So it will depend on the structure you adop

ts. Some of the combination products were well accepted by physicians while others suffered. Companies involved in development of combination products are fi

, if you are doing all the work and searching a deal here or one there then this will decrease the time to momentum, if you are using a property club then it will be increased.

Structure

How you structure the deal is

ding difficulty in defining their combination products and facing various challenges from selecting a combination to marketing it.

Following aspects would a

vital. Using a property investment club, means that you can structure the deal in such a way as to put in as little money as possible so you have more to purchase more property. Doing it yourself means that you will be putti

dd to the challenges in developing combination products:

Which markets to tap where the combination products can do fairly well?
Which combination prod

g in the full amount so you will require more time to momentum. Now this last statement will raise a lot of controversy in some circles and I agree if you know what you are doing and are happy to “walk the line” you can struc

cts are meaningful and rational?
Which therapeutic categories to select?
Which Combinations can address unmet needs of the patients?
Do combin

ture with minimal outlay but for the average investor this would be a line not worth walking.

Stage of Cycle

This is fundamental, assuming you are in the galloping stage of the cycle you will normally create signific

tions increase the patient compliance?
What would be the developing cost?
How to tackle the risks encountered during combination product developmen

nt equity and move to a position of momentum. If you play your cards right, by the end of this cycle you will be able to operate your portfolio under its own steam. Of course this always depends on your circumstances and the

t?

As combination products don't fit into the traditional categories of drugs, medical devices, or biological products, the USFDA is in the process of devel

mount of risk you have managed. Let’s face it over the course of the galloping cycle your property should double in value.

Equity Available

This the major determinant as to how fast you can grow your portfolio. If yo

If you have a ?100,000 income versus ?18,000 you will also be able to move a l

y and representatives from various regulatory agencies are working out to design the regulatory requirements for manufacture and sale of combination products

t quicker.

There are a few more that we could speak about but in truth the answer to your question is simply it depends, there are so many aspects and variables that you can only work this out with an experienced portfolio m

.

As there is an increasing trend of the combination products companies manufacturing such products should be able to tackle the problems involved in the de

anager and a great understanding about the market.

I believe that you can set yourself up in the position that your pension is secured with 1 cycle or 7-10 years. I truly believe this and this is why I focus on taking all of

elopment. They need to be wiser in analyzing the market trends and the regulatory requirements.

How long it takes? Well, thats really up to how much you want it? And that’s a different topic of discussion. :

Many people believe that the Public Mega Corporations are eventually doomed to fail and of course there are many reasons for this. One of the most common reasons cited by media is Corporate Malfeasance. Another one which some free-market economists note is that the Stock Market is now a gambling casino and still others make light of the fact that corporate greed from those at the top is out of control. Of course someone once said something interesting about Absolute Power.

Recently during the Israeli-Hezbollah war we saw a nice Jewish Guy who was an ice cream man selling ice cream to the Israeli Troops on the Lebanon Border, now that man has a knack for business indeed. In fact he was later told to leave after he had sold out because the TV crews were showing him on the news in the middle of the war zone.
