Geared for Growth Property Investing Podcas‪t‬ Mike Mortlock

We interview Brendan Clark, who's the principal Buyers Agent and Founder of The Property Curator. Brendan comes from the finance world. And it won't take very long for you to understand how valuable that is when he's doing his due diligence on property. So we talk about how he creates a property strategy and why it's so important, how to avoid spruikers and making sure that you are being very targeted in the areas that you're looking at.

We're talking to an absolute data genius, a man in rarefied air with his knowledge of property data analytics, machine learning, and the list goes on. He's worked for CoreLogic, for JLL, for PriceFinder. Kent Lardner is the founder of Suburb Trends and the co host of the Property Nerds podcast. We talked to Kent about property data, how to really look at statistically important data and the pitfalls in relying on things like medians when you're doing your analysis.

We interview Bushy Martin, founder of Know How Property Finance and host of the Get Invested Podcast. We chat about his background and how he got involved in property. We discuss property strategy and why calculating what you want to achieve in property is more important than the individual properties in the portfolio itself. There's some good insights in creating a plan, the importance of having a structure and a strategy, and about the property being subservient to what you want to achieve in property.

We interview Tim Garth and Dan Osborne, the hosts of Two Drunk Accountants podcast. We had the pleasure of some time together, as we jumped on each other's podcast, they were kind enough to have me as a guest on the Two Drunk Accountants which was a great bucket list exercise for me. During my interview with them, we talked about how to select an accountant and the importance of having a property specialist, and everything you need to know about accounting as a property investor.

Darren Piper, founder of Universal Buyers' Agents who works between the Sunshine Coast through Brisbane and the Gold Coast. We ask him about his background in sales and what that taught him that he can utilise to advocate for the buyer. We take a dive into the local markets and the areas that Darren sees as having the best potential for capital growth. He gives some great advice for investors on value adding on purchasing properties that have got good upside potential and long term potential.

John Lindeman, CEO for Property Power Partners, published author, real estate market analyst guru and a gentleman with the only patented system for predicting property prices within Australia. We chat to him about his property analysis all the way back from the 1890s, and what we can learn from the analysis that he's taken through to today. We talk about the regional versus city debate, and we get some insights from him about what investors should be looking at and focusing on in the next couple of years.
