Expert analysis, market trends, and practical advice for property investors
A hundred properties in twelve months. Not one was negatively geared. Not one was in Sydney or Brisbane. Every single one was in Melbourne — and every single one was cash flow positive from the first
Melbourne, 600sqm house, 6.3% rental yield. We did it. Repeatedly. Here are the five property types that generate positive cash flow in Melbourne, ranked by the team that's actually executed every sin
A subscriber asked about a Corio property that sold $130K over the guide. My initial reaction was 'overpaid.' Then I ran the numbers. The land ratio, the vacancy, and the coastal Airbnb angle changed
Every property investor I know believes Australian real estate will keep going up. Most of them are probably right — for now. But the ones who survive the eventual crash will not be the optimists. The
At 20, I thought hustle was the answer to everything. At 30, I realised that three or four decisions — not 10,000 hours of grinding — determined my entire trajectory. Here's what I wish I'd known soon
The best investment properties don't have glossy photos on Domain. They don't have Saturday open inspections. They sell quietly, quickly, and at prices that make you wonder what everyone else is doing
When property prices drop 20 per cent from their peak, most leveraged investors lose their entire equity buffer. I call it the kill line. Two Australian cities have crossed it. Here is what the data r
People keep asking what makes our buyer's agency different. After helping 350+ clients build property portfolios across Melbourne, I figured it was time to write it all down in one place. No fluff. Ju
Everyone talks about off-market properties like they're some exclusive club. They're not. There's a free website that lets you find the top-selling agents in any suburb and contact them directly. I'll
My last video reached nearly 20,000 views. Today I am sharing something even more uncomfortable for the industry: the actual performance data behind our 200-plus client acquisitions in Melbourne. Aver
I've been warning people about Melbourne apartments for years. Then I pulled the ten-year data on Tasmania and nearly fell off my chair. The houses — not units, not apartments, houses — in Tasmania gr
Everyone said I was mad. A qualified actuary with a clear path to $300K per year, walking away to become a buyer's agent with no base salary and no guaranteed income. But I'd read Taleb, I'd run the p
Most investors buy their first two properties in personal names without thinking twice. By the time they reach property three, they've locked themselves into a tax structure that will cost them six fi
Let me show you something that should make you angry. Australia's tax-free threshold — the amount you can earn before the government starts taking a cut — has been $18,200 since the 2012-13 financial
The Airbnb dream: $350/night, booked solid, money rolling in. The reality: 60% occupancy, $200/turnover cleaning, accelerated wear, council restrictions, and income that swings wildly season to season
Not in Perth. Not in Brisbane. In Melbourne. A $600,000 house that gained $100,000 in capital value within twelve months — and rents for $850 per week. I'm going to teach you the exact three-metric fr
I finally figured out why I always felt low on energy. I was thinking too much. Not analysing, just looping. Since I changed one habit, my decision-making speed and quality have transformed. Here is w
You've got kids, a mortgage, maybe some super that's not where you'd like it to be. And you're wondering if the property investment train has left the station. It hasn't. But the strategy you need at
In business and in property, timing matters. Not in the 'pick the exact bottom' sense — nobody can do that. But in the 'recognise structural tailwinds and ride them hard' sense. Right now, Melbourne's
At 25, I had two offers on the table. One was a six-figure salary in Thailand with five-star hotels and zero pressure. The other was a gruelling AI project in Melbourne with uncertain outcomes. I chos
A client came to us with experience in Sydney property and a taste for unconventional plays. What we delivered blew even my expectations: 2,000 square metres of land in a Melbourne middle-ring suburb
I keep hearing the same outdated advice: 'Buy close to the city and you can't go wrong.' It was true in 1990. It's not true in 2020. Only half of Melbourne's workforce even commutes to the CBD — and m
The rental yield looks incredible. Six percent, sometimes seven. The entry price is low enough that your deposit covers it. And some YouTuber is telling you it's the next big thing. Before you wire th
The headlines scream 'housing crisis solved' every time the government announces restrictions on foreign buyers. But foreign purchasers account for just 2% of Australian property transactions. So who
