Who I am

My real estate story, in short.

I am a former banker with more than 15 years of experience at major financial institutions, including UBS and NatWest, and an entrepreneur with over 16 years in the startup world. I have scouted property across four countries and five cities.

Along the way I acquired roughly 100,000 square metres of land and built a growing portfolio of 21 apartments and studios, with another nine or more units in development, reaching about 7X appreciation and 5X higher rental income.

I am the founder of NoJargon.pro, a platform I created to share property strategies without the fluff, just clear, practical insight. As a hands-on hospitality manager I currently oversee more than 21 properties, covering 4,300 reservations, 13,700 guest nights and 3,210 five-star reviews.

As the population grows, so does the demand for property. Real estate remains a constant in an unpredictable economy, and quality education in this field is not just valuable today, it is essential for the future. Dragos Cristian

Frequently asked questions

Good questions, plainly answered.

If you cannot find your answer here, use the contact form below and I will reply personally.

Who are the courses suitable for?

If you have savings but do not know where to start, if you want to know how I negotiated better deals and bought below asking, if you already own a place and want it to work harder, if you are weighing long-term letting against short stays, or if you are curious how I renovated quickly and used automation and AI to make life easier, then you are in the right place. I share the exact steps I took, what worked, what did not, and how to build your own strategy from wherever you are now.

Do I need prior experience?

No formal prerequisites or prior experience are required. Whether you are just starting out or have years in the sector, everything is delivered in plain English, without fancy jargon. The straightforward approach keeps complex ideas accessible while still offering value to seasoned investors.

How is the plain-English approach different?

Most courses lean on complex terminology and theory. I strip the jargon out and focus on practical, easy-to-follow strategies. Instead of talking about abstract concepts, I show exactly how much money a technique can make each month. It is all based on my own experience transforming properties, building automated systems and optimising spaces to maximise returns.

What is your refund policy?

I offer a 14-day money-back guarantee on the Property Deal Crafter Masterclass. If you are not satisfied after starting the course, contact me within 14 days for a full refund, so you can evaluate the material without risk.

Do the strategies work in different markets?

The principles are designed to work across markets, property types and economic conditions. Pricing and regulation vary by location, but space psychology, guest experience and management automation are universally applicable. You get a system you can replicate regardless of your starting point or location.

How are the courses structured and priced?

I offer flexible options to suit different needs and budgets:

  • Free: a 45-minute audio masterclass with one strategy you can use immediately.
  • Individual modules, €49 each: 30 to 45-minute episodes with PDF workbooks, templates and checklists, monthly live Q&A workshops and lifetime access.
  • Bundles: three modules for €120 (save €27) or five modules for €199 (save €46).
  • Complete masterclass (coming soon): €299 for all modules, with more than eight hours of audio, workbooks and lifetime updates.
  • Private consulting, €250 per hour: one-to-one guidance on your specific situation.

All courses are self-paced audio you can download for offline listening, with live support through monthly Q&A workshops.

What is the time commitment?

The courses are built for busy schedules. The free masterclass runs 45 minutes. Individual modules are around 45 minutes each and fully self-paced. Monthly Q&A workshops run 60 to 90 minutes, with replays available. Consultations are flexible hourly sessions arranged around you.

Is everything online?

Yes. Modules are pre-recorded audio you can access anytime and download for offline listening. Workbooks and templates are downloadable. Monthly Q&A workshops run live on Zoom, with recordings shared within 24 hours. One-to-one consultations are held online via Zoom or Teams, though I may occasionally arrange to meet in person when schedules and locations align.

What results can I expect?

These sessions are purely educational and share my own experience and approach. I do not offer financial or investment advice, and any strategies discussed reflect my personal experience alone. You can expect knowledge, insight and practical techniques to apply to your own circumstances, but I cannot and do not guarantee any specific financial outcome. Every property situation is different, and results will vary based on many factors outside the scope of these sessions.

Do I get resources and templates?

Yes. Paid participants receive practical materials to apply what they have learned, including evaluation checklists, negotiation frameworks, space optimisation plans, guest communication templates, automation guides, financial tracking spreadsheets and renovation planning tools. Consultation clients receive resources tailored to their own situation.
