    I Followed the Property Advice… and It Cost Me $60,000 | EP 82

    In this episode I share the real story of my first investment property and how a deal that looked perfect on paper nearly turned into a financial disaster. I bought an off the plan property after attending seminars and following the strategy I was told worked. Months later, right before settlement, the bank valuation came back far below the contract price and I suddenly had to find a huge amount of money just to complete the purchase. We break down the risks of off the plan investing, valuation shortfalls, developer incentives, conflicts of interest with some buyer’s agents, and why oversupply estates can trap beginner investors. Most importantly, we talk about what questions you should ask and what research you need to do before buying your first investment property. If you are thinking about property investing in Australia or buying your first investment property, this episode may save you from making a very expensive mistake.

    How I’m Thinking About Interest Rates, Inflation and Property Right Now | EP 80

    In this solo episode, Frank shares how he is currently thinking about interest rates, inflation, and the Australian property market, and what it means for everyday Australians and property investors. With ongoing cost of living pressures, rising rents, and uncertainty around where interest rates are heading next, this episode breaks down the key economic signals that matter, including CPI, wages growth, migration, housing supply, and the rental market. Rather than trying to predict the market, Frank focuses on practical thinking, long term property investment strategy, and how to stay calm and take action during uncertain conditions. He also shares personal insights from his own property investing journey, including buying property during rising interest rates and managing cashflow over time. This episode is designed to help you cut through the noise, understand the bigger picture, and make smarter decisions around real estate, investing, and building long term wealth in Australia. If you are interested in property investment, real estate, personal finance, and navigating the Australian property market with confidence, this episode is for you.
