Are Townhouses the Right Investment? Listeners Choice Episode      Every month, we ask our audience to send in a suburb that they'd like analysed. InvestorKit's senior research analyst Junge Ma dives deep into the numbers to help you make smarter buying decisions in today’s market.   Is Craigieburn the right place to invest in townhouses, or are the risks higher than they first appear? In this episode, Todd is joined by Junge Ma, lead research analyst at InvestorKit, to answer a listener's question about whether Craigieburn stacks up as a smart investment choice.   We break down what’s really happening in the local market—from population growth and housing demand to rental yields and vacancy rates—while also highlighting some of the challenges that investors need to keep in mind. Junge shares valuable insights into who’s actually renting in the area and why that matters when choosing the right type of property.   Tune in because by the end of this episode, you’ll have a clearer picture of whether Craigieburn townhouses are a good fit for your strategy, or if your money could work harder in other parts of Victoria.       Get in touch with our amazing episode contributors & sponsors:   Talk to Junge Ma & InvestotKit's team of experts today! 👉👉👉https://www.investorkit.com.au/   Check out Rob Flux: https://developernetwork.com.au/events   Oliver Cheung: https://www.insighto.com.au/   Jeremy Iannuzzelli:  https://www.praediumpartners.com.au/contact       🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!

Are High Yields and Low Prices Enough to Make It a Deal?       Is a 10% rental yield really as good as it sounds? In this episode, Todd sits down with property expert Simon Loo to break down a Cairns unit that looks like a tempting deal on paper—but turns out to be far from it.   We dive into the numbers, uncovering the hidden costs, risks, and market volatility that make this type of property more of a trap than an opportunity.   From high strata fees to financing challenges, Simon explains why some properties should be avoided no matter how good the yield appears. If you’re serious about building a strong property portfolio, this episode is a must-listen. Learn why chasing “cheap and cheerful” deals can backfire, and discover what to focus on instead for long-term success.     🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!

Starting at 50 to be Financially Free      What would you do if you realised at 53 that your retirement fund was a million dollars short? That’s exactly the challenge Gary faced in 2018, and instead of giving up, he turned it into an opportunity. His journey shows how the right mindset, education, and action can completely transform your financial future—even when starting later in life.   In this episode, Gary shares how he went from an ordinary retail worker to a successful property developer. From his very first one-into-two subdivision in Morphett Vale to navigating the challenges of rising costs during COVID and now managing a $3 million one-into-five townhouse development, Gary’s story is full of lessons in resilience, adaptability, and the power of taking control.   You’ll hear how he built confidence through small wins, learned to pivot when things didn’t go to plan, and embraced his mantra: “If it’s going to be, it’s up to me.”   Whether you’re considering property development, worried about your financial future, or simply need some inspiration to take action, tune in because this episode will give you the insights and motivation to get started!       🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!

Will Melbourne Kill Your Portfolio Growth? Here's What You Need to Know! Is Melbourne really the golden ticket for your property portfolio—or could it end up costing you big?   In this episode, Todd Sloan is joined by Simon Loo, property investment expert from House Finder, to unpack the double-edged nature of Melbourne’s property market. From its global prestige and emotional appeal to the risks of stagnant growth, high land taxes, and cash flow challenges, they break down what every investor needs to know before jumping in.   Simon shares real-life examples of Melbourne deals and explains how to balance yield and growth potential by diversifying across cities. They explore the importance of “holdability” in sustaining a portfolio and why cities like Perth may offer stronger growth and better returns compared to Melbourne.   Whether you’re new to investing or adding to your portfolio, this episode offers practical strategies, cautionary tales, and a grounded outlook on Melbourne’s future. Tune in and learn how to spot growth opportunities, manage risk, and create a sustainable investment strategy that works in any market.       🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!
