  1. Different Paths, Same Goal: Profiting from Property Your Way

    HÁ 6 DIAS

    Different Paths, Same Goal: Profiting from Property Your Way

    There’s no one-size-fits-all way to play the property game, and that’s exactly what makes it so exciting. In this episode, Rebeka talks about how different strategies suit different people, depending on where you’re at in life, how much time you’ve got, and what you’re aiming for. From big-picture subdivision projects to fast-turnaround renos, she breaks down how to find a pathway that actually fits you... your finances, your skills, and your lifestyle. You’ll hear real examples from women carving out their own routes to financial freedom, from a project manager shifting from IT to property, to a mum on maternity leave taking on an apartment renovation to replace her income. Rebeka unpacks what each project means in terms of time, capital, and return - and how aligning your goals with the right type of project is where the magic (and the profit) really happens. If you’ve ever wondered what kind of property project makes sense for your season of life, this one’s your roadmap. Because there’s more than one way to build wealth, you just need to find the path that fits. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

  2. Options Analysis: The Secret to Smarter, More Profitable Projects

    Options Analysis: The Secret to Smarter, More Profitable Projects

    Before you jump into your next renovation, extension, or development, have you actually run the numbers? And not just on what you think you should do with a property, but have you stacked it up against a number of different options? In this episode, Rebeka breaks down how she approaches every project with an options analysis — looking at a site from a few different angles before deciding which path makes the most sense. Sometimes it’s a quick spruce, sometimes it’s a full-scale renovation… and sometimes it’s best to walk away. She walks us through a real project where the team compared multiple options, running the feasibilities side by side to see what stacked up — and what didn’t. You’ll hear how even small shifts in strategy can completely change the outcome, and why it’s so important to understand both the profit potential and the cash you actually need to get there. This chat is for anyone who’s ever asked, “What should I do with this property?” It’s about finding clarity in the numbers, confidence in your decision-making, and the fun in the process. Don't jump into your next project blind - jump in smart! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

    From Project to Payoff: Finding Your Profitable Path

    And, we’re back! After a little podcasting pause (because sometimes you’ve got to build instead of just talk about building), Rebeka returns with an insight-packed episode that’s all about unlocking your pathway to profit. Over the past few months, she’s had over 100 conversations with incredible women such as industry professionals, tradie wives, interior designers and project managers, who are ready to stop building wealth for others and start building their own future. But there’s one thing standing in the way: they can’t quite see how to start. Rebeka walks us through the mindset shifts, stories, and real talk that uncover the simple truth: there is a profitable pathway for every woman. It’s just about seeing the right steps and having the right people around you (spoiler: that’s what we’re here for). If you’ve ever wondered how to make the leap from working in the industry to creating wealth for yourself, or if you’ve been stuck in the planning, dreaming, and doubting stage, this one’s for you. Expect insights on: – Why your skills already set you up for success – The Freedom Formula we use at BuildHer – The difference between doing it for ego vs. doing it for profit – The magic of surrounding yourself with women who get it Whether you're starting fresh or pivoting from an established career, this episode is here to help you sense-check your next move and uncover your own build-worthy future.

  4. Volume Building with Vision: Leanne's Lessons in Creating a Home That’s Personal, Functional, and Full of Potential

    Volume Building with Vision: Leanne's Lessons in Creating a Home That’s Personal, Functional, and Full of Potential

    In this episode, we sit down with DevelopHer Leanne Barbaro to unpack the journey of building her family home through a volume builder — and the gold is in the lessons learned.  We talk through how volume building offers cost efficiencies but requires savvy planning to avoid cookie-cutter pitfalls. You’ll hear her tips on what to prioritise (hint: lighting!), how outdoor structures can impact natural light, and how long-term flexibility allows us to make up for the bold decisions we initially may not have been confident enough to make. Leanne shows us how you can work with the volume build model to create a home that’s personal, functional, and full of potential. Her story is also a fantastic reminder that a home doesn’t have to be finished the day you move in — it’s allowed to evolve. As your lifestyle shifts and your tastes mature, your home can grow with you. It’s not a fixed showpiece; it’s a living, changing space that reflects who you are and how you live.

    23 DE ABR.

    Design Smarter, Not Pricier – Where to Spend (and Where to Save)

    Let’s face it—your Pinterest board might have champagne taste, but your project budget is the reality check you need to consider. In this episode, Rebeka and BHC's Head of Interiors Rebecca, dive into the heart of what it really means to design smarter, not pricier. The key? Understanding the cost implications of your design choices from day one—and learning where a small tweak can save you thousands (without compromising on style). What you’ll learn: Why starting with a budget isn’t limiting—it’s empowering. How small design decisions can create big cost differences (hello $12K bath!). Smart swaps that deliver luxe looks without the luxury price tag. The hidden structural choices that silently eat into your budget. Why “design now, cost later” is a trap—and how to avoid it. You’ll also hear real stories (including a $1M design build turned $280K reno win) and relatable laughs as we keep it refreshingly real. Because building beautifully on a budget is completely possible! Tune in to learn how to take control of your design story—on your terms, and within your means.  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
