Property Investment Podcast Network

While property investors face a more uncertain market, strategic planning, financial preparation, and a longer-term view could reveal opportunities.
On Property Investing Insight, Phil Tarrant and Victor Kumar of Right Property Group discuss how investors can navigate uncertainty without losing sight of their long-term strategy.
The pair examine why headlines and market noise can lead investors astray, drawing on previous market cycles to show how opportunities can still emerge when conditions become more challenging.
Affordability also comes under the microscope, with Kumar highlighting the different dynamics facing owner-occupiers and investors and the ongoing tension between housing supply, demand and population growth.
The conversation turns to preparation, with loan restructuring, rental income, and reduced holding costs all part of a broader strategy to ensure investors are financially positioned when the next opportunity emerges.

As tax changes reshape residential investing, investors are looking harder at commercial property, with industrial and medical assets standing out for their income potential.
On The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant is joined by Damian Collins, founder of Momentum Wealth and executive chairman of Westbridge Funds Management, to examine where investors can still find opportunities.
The pair explore why changing tax settings are pushing investors to look beyond residential property and towards income-producing commercial assets, where higher yields can offer a different path to returns.
Collins explains the appeal of syndicated commercial property investments, particularly across industrial and medical assets, while outlining what investors should look for when assessing a fund manager, their track record, and underlying properties.
The conversation also compares the outlook across commercial sectors, with industrial and medical property attracting optimism while offices remain under pressure from elevated vacancies and changing work patterns.

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 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.

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.
