Can a clever trust structure really give you unlimited borrowing power - or is it just another costly property myth in disguise? In this revealing episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin exposes one of the latest fads doing the rounds in property circles - the so-called SPV Trust strategy that promises “infinite borrowing capacity.” Originally featured on the Geared For Growth podcast with property data expert Mike Mortlock, this candid conversation unpacks the truth behind these “special purpose vehicles” that some spruikers are selling as a shortcut to financial freedom. Bushy and Mike pull back the curtain on the fine print - from hidden lender covenants and personal guarantees to the real-world risks that investors and brokers often overlook. Together, they reveal why “unlimited borrowing” is usually a misleading myth dressed up in a nice suit and why real freedom in property is built on strategy, patience, and good sense, not loopholes and shortcuts. Expect honest insights, a few laughs, and practical wisdom to help you build wealth that lasts longer than the latest financial trend.

In Part 2 of Bushy Martin’s conversation with data-driven strategist Abdullah Nouh, founder of Mecca Property Group, we go deeper into how to separate the noise from the numbers in Australian property. Abdullah shares the six boom-suburb signals he uses to spot turning markets before the crowd catches on — from vacancies and infrastructure to jobs and stock levels. You’ll also learn the five traits of high-growth assets he never compromises on, so you can avoid “pretty problems” and build a portfolio of performers.

If you missed Part 1, go back and listen to the foundation of this insightful chat.

How can thinking like a founder transform your property investing results? In Part 2 of Bushy Martin’s interview with Lawrence Lam, discover how the principles behind founder-led companies can unlock sustainable wealth in your property portfolio. If you’re like most property investors, you’ve been taught to crunch the numbers — rents, yields, rates and depreciation. But the real X-factor behind long-term success isn’t only in the maths; it’s in your mindset. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy continues his conversation with investment strategist and author to unpack The Founder Effect — three key pillars that can help you lead your property journey like a business, not just own bricks and mortar. Bushy and Lawrence explore how to: Apply the three pillars of founder-led investing — Psychological Ownership, Judgment Over Bias and Systemic Scalability — to property Build systems, teams and time horizons to move from landlord to business owner Use bias checklists, alignment interviews and owner-operator filters to improve your property team Invest first in knowledge, then in people, then in assets to play the long game with confidence If you missed Part 1 of this two-part conversation, go back and hear Lawrence’s story and the foundations of his founder-led investing approach. Lawrence Lam is the Founder and Chief Investment Officer at Lumenary Investment Management and author of The Founder Effect. His work is helping a new generation of investors choose depth over speed, people over spreadsheets, and vision over volatility — lessons that property investors can apply right now to future-proof their portfolios.

Smart investors are discovering that success isn’t about chasing hype - it’s about cultivating insight. In this revealing first conversation with Lawrence Lam, founder and managing director of Lumenary and author of The Founder Effect, Bushy Martin explores why long-term investment success depends more on people, purpose, and principle than on spreadsheets and short-term returns. Lawrence shares his journey from APRA and high finance to launching a values-driven investment firm that backs founder-led businesses with enduring potential. Along the way, he explains why character, intent, and systems matter more than numbers, how to recognise and reduce the “invisible tax” of bias, and what it means to taste-test investments the way a winemaker judges vintages. You’ll discover: Why return on insight outperforms return on hype How judgment is shaped and clouded by unseen bias Why leading your wealth journey like a founder helps you avoid following the herd How Lawrence’s upbringing and career shaped his philosophy on alignment and long-term conviction This is part one of a two-part series with Lawrence. Next week, we’ll dive into his book The Founder Effect and the frameworks you can use to invest with clarity and conviction.

Is commercial property the hidden engine room for smart investors? In this week’s episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin continues his deep dive with commercial property specialist Simon Borham to uncover the secrets, strategies and risks that every aspiring investor needs to understand. Following on from Part 1, where Simon shared why specialisation wins in property and in life, this conversation zeroes in on the opaque world of commercial property — where opportunities are real but far from obvious. Together, Bushy and Simon unpack: Why commercial property is intentionally opaque, and how investors can use this to their advantage The critical role of project management skills in property success The art and process of negotiation that separates good deals from great ones How rent drives value — and the hidden equity that can be unlocked through smart management The rules of selection for beginners, including what to look for (and avoid) when stepping into commercial Simon also explains why timing, due diligence, and price discipline are non-negotiables for investors who want to avoid costly mistakes and build sustainable wealth.

The invisible threat that could derail your financial freedom — and how to protect yourself before it’s too late. In this real and raw episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin opens up the conversation on one of the greatest unspoken risks to financial independence: relationship breakdown.

In this episode, you’ll discover: The shocking stats behind divorce and its financial fallout Why long-term property plans are vulnerable to relationship breakdown How BFAs work to protect both parties — and why they’re a sign of trust, not distrust How Ian Macleod helps couples create simple, understandable legal agreements Why taking action while in love is the best investment in your future Stay tuned for Part 2, where Bushy and Ian unpack BFAs for couples navigating separation and how to stay out of the courtroom.
