    Episode 045 - How Hard Is Your Commercial Property Really Working for You?

    A weekend visit to two crystal shops got me thinking about value, business models, and one question every commercial property investor should ask: How hard is your property really working for you? In this episode, I explore why a property working harder does not always mean charging more rent. Sometimes it means protecting the income you already have, helping a good tenant stay strong, and making sure the property can adapt when things change. We talk about: why tenant health matters to your incomethe real cost of vacancyhow flexible space can create more optionswhat makes a property easier to re-leasewhy passive income does not mean passive ownershipand the three questions I think every commercial property owner should askI also share why supporting a tenant does not mean making emotional decisions, it means understanding the bigger picture before you act. Because sometimes, protecting your income starts with helping your tenant protect theirs. I teach my members to learn how to think through commercial property differently, and create the space to bring real questions. Email me at hello@seelies.com.au to learn more.

    Episode 044 - What If Commercial Property Is More Familiar Than You Think?

    When you hear “commercial property”, do you picture huge shopping centres and office towers? It can feel like a world for bigger investors, especially when you’re worried about making a mistake. But what about the local shops, medical practice or business spaces you visit every week? In this episode, I share how a few recent conversations reminded me that commercial property had been part of my own family’s story for years. My parents owned a shop in Indonesia and rented it to another businessperson. Yet when I started investing in commercial property in Australia, my mum was worried. I talk about how I took her concerns seriously and turned them into questions to check before moving forward. We also explore why something familiar can suddenly feel foreign in a different country or setting, and how that feeling can stop us from exploring what’s possible. From family businesses to local consulting rooms, we look at the spaces around us through the eyes of a potential owner. What makes them useful? Could they support future income? And what would we need to understand about the costs, tenants and things that could change? You’ll leave with a simple five-minute exercise to help you get curious about one familiar property and identify your next question.

    Episode 043 - How Much More Do You Really Need to Know?

    You've listened to the podcasts, watched the videos and saved the checklists. You know what yield is, what a lease is, and what due diligence means. So why aren't you moving? In this episode, Sovy unpacks why knowing more isn't the same as moving forward, and why confidence usually comes after action, not before. She shares the story of buying her first commercial property: how looking at more and more properties only made the decision harder, what finally brought clarity, and why she walked away from the deal that would have made her more money. It's an honest look at cash flow versus growth, risk appetite, and why just because you can doesn't mean you should. Why information stops being the problem, and applying it becomes the real skillThe difference between knowing a concept and using it in a real dealHow matching the numbers to your purpose cuts through overwhelmWhy even your brokers, solicitors and agents may only see one piece of the journeyThe questions good support should help you ask yourself If you'd like a clear roadmap to get started, find out more about Sovy's Pocket Rocket Membership HERE Follow Sovy on Instagram: @sovy_lie_commercial Follow Sovy on Facebook: @allaboutcommercial

    Episode 041 - When You Don’t Feel Ready, But You Know It’s Time to Grow

    Sometimes we know it is time for something to change, but we still do not feel ready. In this episode, I share something one of my mentors recently reminded me: growth is not only about learning more. The harder part is taking action while life is still happening around us. I talk about how I have learned to take advice, frameworks and strategies from other people, then make them fit my own life, goals and values. We also bring this into property. Because there is no one investment strategy that is right for everyone.

    Episode 039 - Commercial Property Feels New. Your Skills Aren’t.

    Commercial property can feel like a whole new world. Different numbers. Different leases. Different lenders. Different risks. But here’s the thing: you are probably not starting from zero. In this episode, I talk about how the skills you already use at work or in property can help you make better commercial property decisions. If you work in finance, project management, marketing, legal, drafting, architecture, or even if you have bought residential property before, you already have skills you can bring into the process. The key is knowing what you already know, what you still need to learn, and who can help you close the gaps. I also share how we use my 9-Step Framework inside Pocket Rocket to help members move toward buying commercial property with more clarity and confidence.
