Today, we're talking about property data.
We’ve all heard the saying, “The numbers don’t lie,” but what if I told you that relying too much on property data could actually lead you astray?
That’s exactly what my guest, Stuart Wemyss and I talk about today.
If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the endless stream of property market data or found yourself second-guessing your investment decisions because of some 'hot' new trend, then this episode is for you.
Stuart will break down which numbers you can trust, how to spot the indicators that matter, and why sometimes, the data can lead even the smartest investors down the wrong path.

Today we're going to talk about why medium prices may not be the best gauge for housing costs.
Now, if you're like most property investors or people interested in property, apart from auction results, medium prices are probably the most quoted statistic, but maybe they're not the right way for you to judge how our housing market's going. Maybe it's not the best benchmark, and my discussion today with leading demographer Simon Kuestenmacher may challenge some of your perspectives.

Today, we're diving into some timeless wisdom that has guided investors for decades, but with a twist—how these principles apply to property investment.
Ken Raiss and I will explore Benjamin Graham's teachings from his seminal book, The Intelligent Investor, a classic in the world of investing, often revered as the ultimate guide to building wealth.
Now, you might wonder, "What does a book written in 1949 about stock market investing have to do with property?"
Well, Graham's principles transcend asset classes, offering powerful insights into the psychology of investing, that are just as relevant to property investors as to those in the stock market.
So, Ken Raiss and I will translate Graham’s insights into actionable strategies for you for today’s property market. We’ll discuss how to apply these principles to build a resilient and prosperous property portfolio, one that can withstand market fluctuations and help you achieve long-term financial security.

In today’s show we discuss why the rich seem to have fewer problems and how, while money doesn't necessarily buy happiness, it certainly can create less unhappiness.
Together with Tom Corley, the co-author of my best-selling book Rich Habits Poor Habits, we challenge some common misconceptions and dig deep into why financial stability can alleviate many of life's stresses.
Of course, money doesn’t automatically equate to happiness; the rich have their problems and challenges as well.
Still, I’m sure you’ll find my conversation with Tom enlightening as he explains how his study shows that money can alleviate 58% of all the problems we experience.
So, let’s unpack these ideas and provide you with insights that can help you on your own journey to success and fulfillment.

Have you thought about investing in commercial property?
You’re not alone — faced with the prospect of more moderate returns from their residential property investments, many investors consider this an alternative.
By this I mean offices, shops, or warehouses.
Some investors are looking for diversification in their investment portfolios; others are looking for positive cash flow. Some investors have noticed that most institutional property investors and many of the investors you read about in the Financial Review Rich 200 List own mainly commercial properties.

Today, we’re tackling one of the most exhilarating—and sometimes nerve-wracking—aspects of the real estate market: auctions.
Around Australia, weekend property auctions have become almost a national pastime. People love to go along to have a sticky beak, to get an idea of the market, to fantasize about their dream homes or just to watch the street theatre unfolding before them.
It’s a bit like watching buskers – you see an auction being conducted and you have to stop and gawk for a while.
For all the street theatre and entertainment value, auctions represent a lot of stress and tension for those involved so today and that’s why I’m pleased to have a chat with Andy Reid today.
Andy is not just an award-winning auctioneer; he’s a master of the auction floor, with a wealth of experience that gives him a unique perspective on what it takes to succeed and get that property you’re after.
In this episode, we’ll be discussing everything from the insider tips that can give you an edge, to the common mistakes that trip up even seasoned bidders.

Today, I want to give you my thoughts on a topic that's been dominating headlines and sparking debates across the country: housing affordability.
It's a subject that stirs up strong emotions, especially as the dream of home ownership seems to be slipping further out of reach for many Australians. But here's the question that I think you really need to ask: do we really want houses to be more affordable?
On the surface, it seems like an obvious yes. Who wouldn't want more people to have access to their housing market?
But when we dig deeper, we uncover a complex web of economic, social, and political factors that make the issue far more complicated than it appears.
So in today's episode, I want to explore these nuances with you. We'll look at the broader implications of making housing more affordable, discuss who really benefits from rising property prices, and consider what it would take to genuinely address the affordability crisis.

We all have a limit to our budgets, and I know many investors have to make the decision: should you invest in an investment-grade apartment in a prime location or a house in a secondary location?
Each option has its benefits and challenges and choosing the right one can significantly impact your investment returns.
Today I’m joined by Stuart Wemyss and I ask him what makes an apartment "investment-grade," the critical role of location in property investment, and how to balance capital growth with rental yield.
We'll also explore market trends, tenant preferences, and long-term investment strategies to help you determine which option aligns best with your financial goals.

Today we're going to tackle one of the most critical decisions every property investor faces: where to buy.
It’s often said that the three most important factors in property investment are location, location, and location—but what does that really mean?
Not every suburb or street will deliver the kind of growth and returns you’re hoping for.
To truly succeed, you need to be looking at investment-grade locations—those rare spots that consistently outperform the broader market.
I'm joined by Brett Warren, national director at Metropole Property Strategists and an expert who identifies these high-potential areas. Brett has spent years analysing data, spotting trends, and helping investors make smarter decisions.
Today, he shares his insights on what makes a location investment grade, why some areas rise while others stagnate, and how you can position yourself for maximum growth.
So, if you’re tired of mediocre returns and want your investments to stand out, this episode is for you. We’re going to dive deep into the strategies that will help you choose the right locations and set your property portfolio up for long-term success.

In our current fragmented property markets, with some locations performing and others languishing, many investors are looking to "manufacture" capital growth by participating in property development.
While the property development process can be very lucrative, it is not without some pain and considerable risk.
When all goes well, the results are fantastic, but if things go wrong, they really go wrong.
So today, I’d like to give you some insights into getting started on property development with Greg Hankinson, my business partner in Metropole Construction and director of the Metropole Project Development division.

When it comes to real estate transactions, many buyers wonder, “Do real estate agents lie?”
The short answer is that most real estate agents are honest, hardworking individuals who aim to help their clients achieve their property goals.
However, the nature of negotiations in real estate often involves part-truths, half-truths, and little white lies.
Understanding the difference between an agent withholding information and outright lying is crucial to navigating the property market effectively.
So today, I’m going to help you understand how to deal with estate agents by having a chat with the National Director of Metropole, Brett Warren, about the type of lies you can expect when dealing with an estate agent and how to pick them so the agent doesn’t get the upper hand on you.

Today’s episode of the podcast is special because, if you're a property investor or planning to become one, we're going to uncover some shocking new rules that could cost you thousands, something all investors need to know, but we've found many don't know.
So I'm going to be chatting with the National Director of Metropole Property Management, Leanne Jopson, and we're going to talk about some of these new legislative changes.
Now, I'm sure you're aware the governments have implemented a series of legislative changes. State governments are seeming to change the rules over and over again. While the intention is to protect tenants, they've placed a much greater burden on landlords and property managers alike.
We're going to talk about government interference and some of the legislative changes, some of the burden of compliance, and I bet you didn't know the fines that you could face if your property doesn't meet minimum standards. I'll talk a bit about the rental markets and we're going to explain what you need to look for in a property manager.
