    Spend $50K to Make $480K: The Maths Most Investors Get Wrong

    Send us Fan Mail This week on the Moves to Momentum podcast, Jason Titus sits down with Ria Maric to answer some of the most common questions property investors ask about cash flow, serviceability, and growing a portfolio the right way. From why running at a loss isn't automatically a bad thing, to working out when you've actually hit your borrowing limit, this episode breaks down the maths that separates investors who scale from investors who stall. Jason shares why the question "what's it going to cost me" is the wrong one to be asking, how a couple on a $300K household income could realistically build a six-property portfolio, and why granny flats and rooming houses aren't dead, they're just not the tactic for right now. In this episode, they unpack:  💰 Why running at a loss isn't a bad thing if the asset is right  🧮 The real maths behind a $4M portfolio that's negative $50K a year  🏦 How to get around serviceability limits without overextending  📈 When it actually makes sense to sell a property  🏠 Whether granny flats and co-living are still worth building  📊 Why the "what's it going to cost me" mindset holds investors back  🔑 How structuring across entities can extend your borrowing capacity If you've ever wondered how seasoned investors justify being deep in negative cash flow, this episode gives you the framework to understand it. 🎧 Listen now.

    From Zero Property Knowledge to $1.1M in Equity in 4 Years

    Send us Fan Mail This week on the Moves to Momentum podcast, Jason Titus sits down with Ali Mourad, a 28-year-old property investor who's built a five-property, $3 million portfolio while still working a regular job in construction. From losing money on crypto and Sportsbet in his early 20s to buying his first property in Parmelia on his sister's recommendation, this episode breaks down what it actually took to go from "forty grand in liquid cash with no plan" to over $1 million in equity in four years. Ali shares how watching people in his life pull equity out of their homes changed the way he thought about money, why he quit his first construction job the day after deciding he was underpaid, and why becoming a subcontractor was the move that unlocked his next stage of investing despite tanking his serviceability in the short term. In this episode, they unpack:  💸 Why losing money on crypto and gambling in his 20s made him a better investor  🏠 How one trusted recommendation turned into a five-property portfolio  📈 Why "what's it going to make me" beats "what's it going to cost me"  🏦 How hitting a serviceability wall led him to become a subcontractor  👨‍👩‍👧 Navigating family and cultural pushback around debt and risk  🔑 Why confidence, not income, has been the biggest shift in his investing  🚀 What it takes to keep scaling a portfolio once the first deal is done If you think you need a high income or perfect timing to start building a portfolio, this episode gives you a different story. 🎧 Listen now.

    Send us Fan Mail This week on the Moves to Momentum podcast, Jason Titus sits down with Lily and Callum Fisher to unpack how they built a 15-property, $9 million portfolio in just five years. From their first house to a four-week buying spree funded entirely by one revaluation, this episode breaks down what it actually takes to scale a portfolio quickly, not just buy property here and there. Lily and Callum share why they stopped chasing every creative strategy, how equity recycling let them buy faster than saving ever could, and why units have revalued more reliably for them than houses almost every time. In this episode, they unpack:  🏡 Why treating each purchase as a vehicle, not a destination, changes everything  💰 How equity recycling took them from 6 properties to 15 in 18 months  🧠 The costly lessons from a rooming house development they wouldn't repeat  📊 Why units often outperform houses on revaluation  💵 How they structured purchases across two names to keep borrowing power open  📉 What it really cost them in sacrifice, two jobs, long distance, and a stint in a PNG mine camp  🚀 Why income and borrowing capacity become the real constraint as your portfolio grows If you're wondering what it actually takes to go from one property to a serious portfolio, this episode gives you the real, unfiltered version. 🎧 Listen now.
