After graduation, he attended the Royal Military Academy Sandhurst and was commissioned into the King's Regment. He served all over the world, completed a master's degree in defence administration and was decorated in the Operational Honours List 2001. He retired as a major at his first pension point to pursue property development full-time, having built a portfolio of buy-to-let properties while still serving in the army.Dominic quickly established himself as a property developer in Cyprus in the run-up to European Union accession. This was a huge success, until the Credit Crunch and financial crisis of 2008 and its aftermath. For many developers worldwide, the market collapsed.This period was also an opportunity, and Dominic quickly established Distressed Assets (www.distressedassets.co.uk) to seize opportunities brought about by the crisis, some examples of which are shown in this book.He has been an active property developer and investor for decades, but for the past 14 years has focused almost exclusively on distressed assets at property auctions, where he feels the real value is to be found.He lives in Liverpool and is happily married with three children, two dogs and two cats.
