(Property) Investors potentially being victims of marketeers or spruikers.
~ Ben Kingsley ~
Buying in a heated market is kinda like jumping off a cliff because everyone else is jumping…
…many investors start buying any old investor stock (Call it a classic case of the FOMO), but the problem is, how do you know that a heated market hasn’t already reached its peak before you even jump in?
The answer is: Sometimes to get ahead, you’ve got to take the road (or cliff) less travelled! (We might be going overboard with this analogy)
In this case, it’s using a counter-cyclical strategy.
Today we’ll be exploring what this is, the benefits it can bring, and how becoming a borderless investor could be best for you!
But remember folks: Each state has its own cycle, and it’s not always easy to tell WHERE the market currently is!
To help you determine this, we’re sharing a fantastic resource called CoreLogic Monthly Housing & Economic Chart Pack. This pack allows you to see how each state’s property market has performed over the past 30 years! (Just click on the image to download the report now!)
The message today folks is it’s all about market timing and avoiding making rash decisions. To learn how to navigate both, listen in now!

Well folks, after eight long weeks of waiting, we’ve FINALLY reached our most anticipated topic yet…Investment Stock vs. Investment Grade Properties!
Did you know, there’s a higher percentage of investors who’ve sold their property for less than their original purchase price, than owner-occupied properties? 💸
Yep, that’s sadly true. That’s why in today’s episode, we’re deep dive into what investment stock actually is, how it differs from investment-grade properties…
...And how to know if YOU’RE being spruiked into buying stock!
We’re also examining the science behind Investment Grade Properties, why depreciation shouldn’t be the end-all, and how becoming a borderless investor can benefit you!!
PLUS, guess what milestone we’ve just achieved…

When building a portfolio of properties, you don’t want to buy any assets that will give you glass ceilings (in rent).

Folks, we’ve been sharing what we believe will make you into successful investors, but today, we’re turning the microphone over to you.
We’re answering one of the FIRST questions we ever received on our podcast from Matt:
And what a great question it is! 🏠
With the rise in apartments in CBDs around Australia, this is a common question we’ve been hearing, and we’re excited to get into the meat of it today!
We’re breaking it down into HOW these two accommodations differ, the different types of asset classes you can invest in and the regulations around them…
PLUS, we investigate density and spacing (More importantly, how it can create pesky glass ceilings for you)…
Whether holiday homes are a better investment (Curveball, right?!)
And how lifestyle factors and the fading Great Australia dream impact our response!
But before we let you jump into today’s episode, we’ve got a huge announcement!
Thank you to all our listeners, we appreciate you tuning in each and every week!
And if you’re like Matt and have a question you’d like to ask, send us a voice message through our SpeakPipe (It’s the tab on the bottom right of this page!)
But back to today’s episode…
👉 Tune in now folks, there’s some evergreen wisdom in there!

Folks, it’s scary to watch investors pour bucketloads of time and money into budgeting and buying a property, to then not invest in any protection!
This is exactly why we’re homing in on the fourth and final part of our ABCD Property Investment Formula series: Defence!
Previously, we’ve spoken about Cash Flow Management, Borrowing Power and Asset Selection. If Asset Selection is the favourite of the Four Pillars, then Defence is definitely the least favourite. Most investors are always on the lookout for new investments or new ventures to go into, but the most important asset is actually the investor themselves.
That’s why we’re looking at…
🛡 HOW to minimise risk across Asset Selection, Borrowing Power and Cash Flow Management…
🛡 WHO you shouldn’t be taking advice from…. (Hint: Ben and Bryce are declared enemies of these types of advisors 😉)
🛡 WHY you should be investing in certain policies and mortgage brokers…
And why mining towns aren’t the ideal investment – especially if it’s your first property!
So don’t end up like some of the people that Ben references in today’s podcast, or spend years investing to be blindsided by weak defence…
Tune in and get smart with our final pillar in the Property Investment Formula!
