Craig “Rosie” Rosevear!
That’s right—on The Couch today, the man behind the drums of one of Australia’ legendary bands explains how he used his royalties to break into the property market and transformed his touring days into a growing property portfolio and now, a charismatic, auctioning career! Yep. Aside from being the Founder of Rock Your Future and the owner of Rosie’s School of Rock—where he and his wife, Belinda, motivate and educate young people to be confident in both music and life—Craig is also an auctioneer at Cooley Auctions, winner of the Newcastle Heat of the Real Estate Institute of NSW Auctioneering Competition and a property investor with a knack for DIY renovating!
No stranger to hard work, Craig explains:
- Firstly, what life is really like as a rock star!

- Why he used his royalties to buy his first investment property

- How he became a borderless investor in Melbourne, Brisbane and Sydney
- Ways to get around Sydney’s Housing Affordability
