    Built for Scale: From 1 to 19 properties valued at $12m in less than 3 years

    Anyone can make money when property is booming, but building a portfolio that can keep performing through changing conditions takes a far more considered approach. Here is how to do it. On today's Built for Scale podcast, Liam Garman and Josh Crealy explore what it really takes to scale a property portfolio, from understanding market cycles to choosing the right assets and structuring an investment strategy for the long term. Crealy shares how his own experience with high-risk development projects pushed him towards a strategy focused on market cycles, with investments in markets including Townsville and Darwin showing the potential of getting the timing and location right. The conversation also turns to asset selection, with Crealy establishing Melbourne as an undervalued opportunity, particularly for units offering strong rental yields and sitting below replacement cost. The pair also examine the importance of having a clear investment thesis and understanding what is driving the decision to build a portfolio, whether that is financial security, passive income, or creating a legacy.

    THE PROPERTY NERDS: What's going to happen by May 2028?

    The budget may be old news, but its impact is still unfolding, with borrowing power, lending rules, and investor strategies all facing further change. On The Property Nerds, Arjun Paliwal and Jack Fouracre revisit their post-budget predictions to see what has changed, what has not, and what could still be coming. The pair examine how lenders have responded to negative gearing changes, with borrowing capacity taking a smaller hit than initially expected as banks recalibrated their calculators. They also look at lenders introducing 40-year loan terms and high-LVR products as competition for investors heats up, while APRA's 3 per cent assessment buffer remains a potential shift to watch. Trusts are also back under the microscope, with the pair challenging claims they are becoming obsolete and looking at the potential tax changes still ahead. The conversation turns to what could happen by May 2028, including the potential return of negative gearing, changes to rental income assessments and how lower interest rates could reshape investor cash flow.

    The negotiation skills that could save investors thousands

    While spring brings more property activity, knowing how to read a deal and negotiate with confidence could make all the difference for investors looking to buy. On The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant is joined by Jason Titus, director of Buyers Edge Property, to explore what investors need to know before entering the spring market. Titus shares the negotiation lessons he has learnt from thousands of property deals, from building rapport with agents to reading vendor motivations, competition, and market conditions. The pair discuss why investors need to know a property's true market value before making an offer, using recent comparable sales to set their anchor and negotiate with confidence. They also look beyond the headline price, examining how settlement periods, building and pest conditions, and other terms can be used as part of a broader negotiation strategy.

    Property Buzz: Rates, private lending, and bitcoin to shake up property finance

    Mortgage demand is falling, borrowing costs remain under pressure, and new lending models are emerging, leaving the property finance sector facing a period of major change. On Property Buzz, Phil Tarrant is joined by Annie Kane and Julian Barnes from Broker Daily to examine the latest developments across mortgages, lending and property finance. The trio looks at the prospect of further rate rises, mortgage affordability and the battle between banks to win a shrinking pool of borrowers, with mortgage demand reportedly down 16 per cent year on year. They also explore bitcoin-backed home loans, with cryptocurrency emerging as a potential source of deposit funding, while volatility and loan-to-value requirements create new risks for borrowers. Private lending comes under the spotlight as the sector expands across development finance, raising questions about the risks building beneath the surface, while mortgage brokers continue to dominate despite banks pushing their proprietary channels. The conversation also examines AI's potential to transform the mortgage process, from applications to decision-making, before turning to the bigger challenge facing property: how to get more housing built.

    Cash flow is king. But is it the right strategy?

    Investors are being pulled in different directions, from cash flow plays to new builds. But where are the real opportunities in today's market? On The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant is joined by Steve Ash, founder of Property Strats, to examine the changing property market and what investors should be considering in the current climate. The pair discuss the flood of property content across social media, why investors need to look beyond the noise, and how understanding previous market downturns can help put current conditions into perspective. They also explore the impact of changing government policies, the growing focus on cash flow, and the competition between investors and first home buyers, including what is happening in markets such as South Yarra. New builds also come under scrutiny, with the pair discussing construction quality, tight developer margins, and the risks investors can face when buying into new developments, while commercial property and self-managed super fund (SMSF) strategies also come under the spotlight.

    THE PROPERTY NERDS: This budget isn't helping why first home buyers are still stuck

    Despite the government's promise to help first home buyers, the latest budget could be creating more hurdles than opportunities for those trying to enter the property market. On today's Property Nerds podcast, Arjun Paliwal from Investorkit and Jack Fouracre from Fouracre Financial break down three ways the government's approach is failing to deliver for first home buyers. The pair look at the contradiction between efforts to slow property price growth and high-percentage loans of up to 95–98 per cent, saying the measures have done little to give buyers the confidence to act. They also examine borrowing capacity, with tighter lending conditions pushing buyers towards the more affordable end of the market, where prices are holding up and investors are competing for the same properties. Paliwal and Fouracre explain why boosting confidence and economic prosperity could do more for first home buyers than the current approach.

    Data, market shifts, and opportunities: What's really happening in property?

    Australia's property landscape is anything but uniform, with prices moving in different directions, making it critical for investors to know which data matters, read the signals, and structure their portfolios to capture emerging opportunities. On The Smart Property Investment Show, SPI deputy editor Emilie Lauer is joined by Dr Diaswati Mardiasmo, chief economist at PRD, to break down Australia's property market and where investors are still finding opportunities. The pair look at the divide between Sydney and Melbourne and stronger-performing capitals including Brisbane, Perth, Adelaide, and Hobart, while highlighting the data investors should watch, from rental yields and vacancy rates to supply and development activity. The conversation then turns to interest rates, tax changes, and the growing appeal of industrial and smaller commercial property, with longer leases and stronger yields attracting investors looking beyond residential. Mardiasmo also highlights markets and suburbs worth watching, from Hobart and Darwin to more affordable pockets of Sydney, Melbourne, and Queensland, and explains why investors need to look beyond headline data when assessing their next move.

    Property Buzz: Banking shake-up, refinancing surge, and trust tax turmoil

    Borrowers are switching lenders in search of better deals while proposed trust tax changes could force investors to rethink how they structure their property wealth. On Property Buzz, Phil Tarrant is joined by Julian Barnes to break down the biggest developments across banking, mortgage lending, and property finance. The pair look at AI's growing role in banking and what it could mean for mortgage brokers, despite brokers now accounting for 81.6 per cent of the home loan market. They also discuss the surge in refinancing, with 1,800 borrowers switching lenders each day. The conversation then turns to proposed trust tax reforms, including a 30 per cent minimum tax on discretionary trusts and changes planned for 2028, which have left advisers working through the potential impact. With inflation, unemployment, and interest rate uncertainty adding to the pressure, the pair consider what these changes mean for borrowers and property investors.
