Welcome to Property Unfiltered, a collection of raw and uncensored conversations with Simon Loo and some of the nation’s most savvy investors – giving you the insights you need to achieve your property dreams.
In this episode of Property Unfiltered, Simon Loo, founder of House Finder, and Smart Property Investment’s Liam Garman are joined by head of Strategic Brokers Hung Chuy and investor Lawrence Khuu to unpack how to build a nine-property portfolio in three years.
Lawrence, a physiotherapist, built a nine-property portfolio in three years despite a tough post-COVID lending environment.
Initially owning three low-yield units in south-west Sydney, he chose to sell them at a loss to free equity and borrowing capacity for more profitable investments.
Guided by property expert Simon and finance specialist Hung, he focused on undervalued properties with strong rental yields and capital growth in Queensland and Western Australia.
Using trusts and refinancing strategies, they maximised his borrowing power while managing liabilities, even selling his primary residence to fuel growth.
Lawrence’s journey highlights how clear goals, expert advice, and determination can overcome market challenges and drive rapid portfolio expansion.
