    How to Build a 9 Property Portfolio with over $2m in Equity in less than 2 Years

    Sam is joined in the studio for this week's investor episode by Australian Property Scout clients, Aaron and Jo. Together they have built an impressive 9 property portfolio with 2 million equity in a sub 2 year timeframe. Aaron and Jo both came from humble beginnings, both having great work ethic instilled in them from their families during their childhood, combined with their exposure to property and the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad, caused them to stumble across Sam after winning Investor of The Year in 2020. This was the perfect storm to get their portfolio started and working towards their goal to retire by 2030.School of Property is the ultimate education destination to master property investment, with a curriculum meticulously designed and crafted with both beginners and experts in mind.

    Why So Many Investors Get Stuck at 1 or 2 Properties?

    Why So Many Investors Get Stuck at 1 or 2 Properties?

    In this week's episode, Sammy Gordon is joined in the studio by his co-host Jimmy Ibrahim and APS Strategist Luke Teeuwsen. The boys are in the studio discussing why so many investors get stuck at 1 or 2 properties into their investing journey. They delve into the common reasons including lack of strategy, viewing more expensive properties as superior and therefore maxing out borrowing power, and being lured into properties that would be eligible for government grants. The most important way to avoid falling into this trap is to surround yourself with the correct team to avoid making mistakes and becoming stuck; along with sticking to the strategy through the tough times to achieve your property investing goals.School of Property is the ultimate education destination to master property investment, with a curriculum meticulously designed and crafted with both beginners and experts in mind.
