Geared for Growth Property Investing Podcast Mike Mortlock

We chat with property investment specialist, Darren Venter, Founder of Strat Prop which stands for Strategic Property. We take a deep dive in to his background growing up in South Africa, and what got him interested in working in property. It's a great chat about the fundamental drivers behind property investments and how he's able to leverage his clients through the purchasing of property in growth markets with tightening vacancy rates and getting some instant equity to be able to go again.

James Rankin is a buyers agent, property investment guru and Director for Elephant Advisory. We talk to him about how he first got interested in property, what it means for him now working as an advocate, and we ask him to share some stories from his Youtube series called 'The Trunking Truth about Finance and Property'. We also cast the spotlight on Melbourne South East which is where he is most active and the roadmap he has put together on how to buy a property.

We speak to Janine Leafe, senior broker from PKF Financial Services who has a massive following on social media with some amazing content on the mortgage broking industry. Janine fills us in on what investors need to know when they're structuring their finances, the 'why' and 'how' she got into the game, and she gives us advice on types of investments she favours, and how to spot a 'sprooker'.

We interview Tiron Manning, Founder of Newcastle Buyers Agent. We chat to him about what he has noticed from a gentrification point of view, he points out what you need to spend to secure an investment in the Newcastle area, he gives us some great advice for investors looking for their next property and we talk about the role of a Buyers Agent in general.

Anthony Spagnolo, principal of Agenzia Property Consultants, chats to Mike about his background as an Accountant and how an Accountant looks at property investing differently to your average investor. With his development experience, we talk to him about getting involved in property development along with NDIS properties which is a real specialty of Anthony's. We look at how that works, how to get involved, what the requirements are, who pays the rent, what sort of returns we having, and much much more.

We interview Sanjeev Sah, Director of Investors Dream Property Buyers Agency. Sanjeev has an interesting story growing up in India, moving to Australia with a computer science background and investing in property both in India and Australia. He has managed to create a fantastic passive income for himself in as little as 5 years with a couple of key sub-division renovations and renting per room deals, and we chat to him about all the numbers and specifics of those deals and how he's been able to find them.
