About this episode

There is always plenty going on in the Australian property market. And when we want to get an update on what is going on, there is one person we turn to: Sam Gordon of Australian Property Scout. 


In today’s episode we cover: 

  • The concept of Rentvesting and how it can help you get your foot on the property ladder
  • The do’s and don’t’s of Equity Recycling
  • The state of the Australian property market 
  • The supply challenges and when we might see housing supply keep up with demand 
  • Areas of Australia that might be more attractive to investors than the major capital cities
