Mary Cullen

Mary, originally from Ireland, embarked on an unconventional property journey. In 2006, she moved abroad to pursue her dream of renovating properties and living in the sun, despite having no prior property experience. Her first project involved a seafront Palace in Montenegro, leading to successful ventures in luxury villas and earning her International Awards. Unfortunately, her dream turned into a nightmare when the Mafia-controlled system destroyed her business, prompting her return to the UK in 2016 with just one suitcase and two small children.

Facing challenges, Mary maintained a positive mindset, networked extensively, and worked multiple jobs. Eventually, her efforts paid off, and in 2018, Mary returned full-time to property investing in the UK. She has since built a diverse buy-to-hold portfolio, including BTLs, SA’s, and Commercial Conversions. Mary also runs her own interior design and brand agency for landlords and property companies.

Driven by a passion for inspiring others to create a life they love, Mary founded The Vortex in 2022. This intuitive training hub combines her passion for property and entrepreneurial ventures to guide individuals toward success in the current climate. Mary firmly believes that in the world of property, one should never let fears overshadow dreams, emphasizing that there is a place for everyone in property if they align with their true nature and purpose.
