In today’s show Aaron Christie-David interviews me and asked how I’ve built the substantial property bought for the White investors should be doing in the current market to secure their financial future through property.
I discuss the need for a comprehensive approach to wealth creation that goes beyond property alone, advocating for a balanced life and the importance of having a clear vision and goals.
The conversation also touches on why many of the predictions made for the property markets for 2025 will be wrong.
Takeaways
Predictions about the market are often wrong; focus on fundamentals. Most property investors get it wrong; 50% sell up in five years and 92% never get past the first or second property. Your biggest asset is your time and your earning capacity, don’t squander it. It’s likely that many investors will put their plans on hold before the upcoming election, but experience shows us that life goes on after elections; so if you have the finance capacity don't wait to invest. Your strategic property plan should include risk management and things you shouldn’t do just as much as it outlines things you should do. Investing is a long-term game; focus on capital growth more than cash flow. Surround yourself with good advisors and mentors. Confidence in the market drives investment decisions. True wealth encompasses more than just property.Chapters

Hindsight is a wonderful thing, isn’t it?
Let me ask you a question… with the benefit of hindsight and knowing what you know now, if you had the opportunity to do so, would you have bought an investment property 40 years ago?
I bet your answer would be yes, realising that the median property price in Sydney was $68,500 back then and that you could have bought a median-priced property in Melbourne for just $40,000.
So today I share 40 valuable lessons learned from over five decades of property investment.
Takeaways
Hindsight's a wonderful thing, isn't it? Successful investors have a long-term strategy. Don't do what most property investors do. The biggest risk is not doing anything. Location will do 80% of the heavy lifting. Don't rely on the media for your investment strategies. A change in your thinking will lead to a change in your life. You improve at what you practice intentionally. Time spent worrying is time that you could spend identifying opportunities. Never give up, you need resilience.Chapters

In today’s show I’d like to remind you of some of the foundational principles I use to grow my wealth.
I’ll discuss things that "always worked" rather than things that are working now.
Now to be clear… this is very different from most of what you hear in the news, which basically focuses on short-term investment trends. You know... those headlines that we’ve been seeing so much of recently - the top 10 areas to invest in 2025, the top 5 lessons from 2024, what’s ahead for interest rates or where’s the next hotspot.
I also discuss the difference between expectations and forecasts and provide insights into the current market dynamics and future outlook for property investment to give you some clarity in the chaos of the many mixed messages in the media.
Takeaways
Focus on long-term investment strategies rather than short-term trends. Recognize the behaviour gap between intentions and actions. Successful investing requires patience and discipline. Building a strong team of independent advisors is crucial for property investment success. Expectations should guide your investment strategy; they are more useful than forecasts. The property market is cyclical; prepare for downturns and upturns. Investment-grade properties are key to long-term wealth creation. Current market conditions present unique opportunities for savvy investors with a long term focus. Understanding market dynamics can help mitigate risks. Strategic planning is essential for achieving financial goals in property investment.Chapters

In this episode, Brett Warren and I discuss the intricacies of property investment, focusing on the importance of strategic planning, understanding investment-grade properties, and the role of buyer's agents.
We delve into the seven-stranded approach to property investment, share case studies of successful purchases, and provide insights into navigating off-market opportunities.
The conversation emphasizes the need for a long-term focus in property investment and the significance of being prepared for market changes.
Takeaways
Start your property investment journey with a clear plan. Investment-grade properties outperform the market over the long term. Metropole’s seven-stranded approach helps in making informed investment decisions. Quality properties are more important than the quantity of properties in building wealth. Off-market opportunities can provide unique advantages. Buyer’s agents play a vital role in navigating the property market. Long-term focus is essential for sustainable wealth creation. Investors should prepare for market changes ahead of time. Building relationships with agents can lead to better investment opportunities.Chapters

If you’re like many property investors, you’ve had more than your share of frustrations over the last couple of years, including the increased cost of maintaining your property with rising interest rates and mortgage costs, council rates, insurance and ever-changing legislative environment that seems to be favouring tenants more and more.
Today I’m joined by Leanne Jopson, national director property management at Metropole to discuss some recent shifts in our rental markets and changes to our tenancy laws across Australia.
The conversation highlights the evolving landscape of rental properties and the necessity for investors to adapt to these changes to maximize their returns.
Takeaways
The rental legislation has shifted in favour of tenants recently. Property owners are facing more challenges due to new regulations. Compliance with legislation is essential to avoid penalties. Understanding tenant rights is crucial for property investors. Minimum standards for rental properties are becoming stricter. Legislative changes are impacting how often rents can be increased. Property management is much more complex than just collecting rents. AI can assist in property management but cannot replace human relationships. Investing in property requires a business mindset. Strategic planning is key to successful property investment.Chapters

If you’ve ever wondered why some people seem to climb the ladder of wealth with ease while others feel stuck in the rat race despite earning a decent living, today’s show is for you.
In this show Brett Warren and I discuss the habits that shape success and the mindset required to achieve financial freedom.
We’re diving into the ideas behind my international best selling book, Rich Habits Poor Habits, where I explore the simple but powerful habits that separate the rich from the average person.
This episode could change the way you think about money, success, and your own potential – seriously!
Takeaways
Your thoughts lead to your feelings, your feelings lead to your actions and your actions lead to your results. In other words your outside world is a reflection of your inner world Believe it or not - wealth is a journey that requires specific habits. Most people remain in the rat race due to poor money habits. Understanding the hierarchy of wealth – the 5 levels of wealth - can guide your financial journey. The average person often blames external factors for their financial situation. Complaining and being negative hinders your success and opportunities. Delayed gratification is a key principle for wealth accumulation. Enthusiasm for your work can lead to sustained success. Surrounding yourself with the right people is essential.

In today’s Big Picture episode of the Michael Yardney Podcast, Pete Wargent and I discuss a raft of macro factors that will affect how our property markets play out this year, including the implications of the first rate cut by the RBA, our plunging vacancy rates which are only going to make rents rise further, the recent government incentives issued push-up property values, why there’s no way we will meet the governmen’s new construction targets, plus lots more.
We analyze how these factors will interplay to shape the property market in 2025 and beyond.
Takeaways
Interest rates are expected to fall further, but maybe not as quickly as many would hope. Vacancy rates are declining, leading to further rent increases. Government policies often focus on demand rather than supply and “kick the can down the road.” Construction challenges are exacerbated by a shortage of tradespeople. Migration trends are influencing the housing market significantly. Unemployment remains low, contributing to economic stability. Market sentiment plays a crucial role in property investment decisions. Government incentives do not effectively address housing affordability. The interplay of various economic factors will shape the property landscape in 2025.Chapters

Today, I interview my good friend and business partner - Brett Warren, the National Director of Property at Metropole.
Brett is someone who has walked the path so many of the listeners to this show are striving to follow.

We dig into how he transitioned from investing in his own backyard to helping others build wealth through property, and what it takes to achieve long-term success in today’s ever-changing market.
But it’s not just about Brett’s story.
This episode is packed with actionable advice as Brett shares practical tips to help you avoid common mistakes, stay ahead of market trends, and build resilience in challenging times.
So, if you’re ready to gain some invaluable insights from one of the sharpest minds in the property industry, listen in.
Takeaways
Brett Warren's journey from novice to expert illustrates the importance of mentorship. Mindset plays a crucial role in achieving success in property investment. Delayed gratification and discipline are essential for long-term wealth building. Investors should focus on capital growth rather than cash flow. Understanding market trends and economic fundamentals is key to successful investing. Location is critical; not all areas are investment-grade and not all properties in good locations are investment grade. Gentrification can signal future property value increases. Two common mistakes investors make is overcommitting financially and neglecting research. Having a solid strategy helps navigate market fluctuations. Client success stories highlight the effectiveness of tailored investment strategies.Chapters

In this episode of the MY Podcast, Dr. Andrew Wilson & Brett Warren and I discuss the implications of recent interest rate cuts on the housing market.
In a highly anticipated decision, the Reserve Bank of Australia cut interest rates for the first time in more than four years, easing cost of living pressures and opening the door for the government to call an early election.
In today’s whow Podcast, Dr. Andrew Wilson & Brett Warren and I discuss the implications of recent interest rate cuts on the housing market.
We explain that the Reserve Bank was cautious about the outlook, noting the labor market remains strong and the global economic outlook is uncertain. Conflicting signals on the economy mean multiple rate cuts this year are unlikely.
In cutting the cash rate to 4.1%, RBA governor Michele Bullock said market forecasts for three more rate cuts this year were “far too confident” and the board needed more evidence inflation was sustainably back in its 2-3% target band.
But the rate cut is crucial to the government’s narrative of an improving economy.Takeaways
Interest rate cuts stimulate the economy. Confidence is a big driver of our housing market. The Bank of Mum and Dad is becoming more active. Melbourne is an opportunist market right now. The chance of recession is very limited. True wealth is more than just money and property. A change in your life starts with a decision. Balance is better understood over time, not daily.Links and Resources:

How do you make the right choices, avoid costly mistakes, and set yourself up for long-term financial success?
If that’s what you want to know, listen to today’s show and learn how to make every dollar of your property investment work harder for you!
Takeaways
Understanding the internal rate of return is essential for maximising your investment returns. Cash flow challenges should be balanced with long-term capital growth strategies. Investors should focus on high-quality properties for better capital growth – this is much more important in building wealth than cash flow. Long-term capital growth strategies yield better results than short-term cash flow solutions Debt can be a powerful tool for wealth creation if managed wisely – the wealthy have become so using compounding, leverage and time. Investors need to be cautious about expenses while maintaining their property’s value. Minimising your capital contributions can enhance overall returns. Holistic financial planning is key to navigating investment decisions. Investors should seek professional advice to tailor strategies to their individual circumstances.Chapters

Are rate cuts coming next week, and if not, when will we get them and how many will there be?
In today’s conversation, Brett Warren, Dr. Andrew Wilson, and I discuss these questions and the implications of potential interest rate cuts on the property market and the economy.
We explore how interest rates influence buyer behavior, market dynamics, and economic indicators such as employment and inflation.
Dr Andrew Wilson also provides insights into the current economic landscape and future market predictions.
Takeaways
Interest rates are expected to fall, positively impacting the property market. A decline in interest rates typically leads to increased buyer activity. Confidence in the market is crucial for driving property prices up. The Reserve Bank's focus includes inflation, employment, and economic growth. Market opportunities arise when rates drop. Different property markets will react differently to interest rate changes. Melbourne's market may benefit from a shift in buyer sentiment. Strategic planning is essential for successful property investment.Chapters

About this time each year it’s customary for those of us in the property industry to peer into the future in an attempt to predict what’s ahead for our housing markets.
While making such forecasts is not an exact science, I can safely make five predictions I am sure will be true for 2025.
Then I want to share 12 rules that should make 2025 a great year for your investments.
Takeaways
Predictions for the property market are often inaccurate. Economic uncertainty can create both challenges and opportunities. Understanding market dynamics is crucial for investors. Taking a long-term perspective and adhering to a proven investment strategy is essential for success. Financial literacy is key to making informed investment decisions. Location is a critical factor in property investment success. Demographics significantly influence property market trends. The property market operates in cycles, affecting investment timing. Investors should be prepared for unforeseen events that impact the market. Current market conditions may present unique opportunities for savvy investors.Chapters

I'm often asked what I would do differently if I could live my investing journey all over again.
I've certainly made my fair share of mistakes along the way and paid huge "learning fees" because of them. However, instead of being defeated, I learned from each error and moved forward a little bit wiser.
If you ask me that’s one of the keys to investment success - the ability to pick yourself up from setbacks, learn what you can from them (including your own limitations) and simply try again.
So, to help prevent you from making the same mistakes, in today’s show Brett Warren, National director of property at Metropole and I are going to chat about some of the things I wish I knew when I first started investing.
Takeaways
Setting clear goals is essential for success in property investment. Buying in the right location is not negotiable Building a supportive team can enhance investment success. A wealthy mindset and abundance thinking are traits of successful investors Delayed gratification is critical to long-term wealth. Overcoming fear is necessary for making investment decisions. Learning from your failures can lead to future success. Compounding and leverage are powerful tools in property investment. Ignoring media noise helps you maintain focus on long-term goals. Balancing cash flow and capital growth is vital for financial stability. Gratitude is important as is giving back to the communityChapters

If you’ve ever wondered how to make smarter money moves, whether property is still the best way to grow wealth, or how to set yourself up for financial freedom, today’s show is for you.
Sarah Megginson, personal finance expert and Head of Editorial at Finder.com.au and I unpack the Finder Wealth Builder Report, which is a fascinating deep dive into how Aussies are saving, investing, and making their money work harder
Sarah shares some eye-opening insights from the report—like what separates successful investors from those who just can’t seem to get ahead, why younger Aussies are finding it tougher to build wealth, and how small habits can lead to big financial gains over time.

Today Brett Warren and I look at the key trends and challenges our property markets experienced in 2024 and share our outlook for 2025.
We reflect on the unexpected resilience of the market despite rising interest rates, the influence of government policies on property investors, and the importance of demographic shifts.
Takeaways
The property market showed unexpected resilience in 2024. Government policies had a profound impact on property investors. Interest rates are expected to fall in 2025, and this will usher in the next phase of the property cycle. Quality properties will be in high demand as the market shifts. Demographic shifts will influence property demand and supply. Investors play a crucial role in providing rental housing but does the government recognize this . A strategic plan is essential for long-term investment success. First home buyers made up around 20% of all property transactions last year. Understanding market trends is vital for making informed investment decisions.Chapters

It’s a popular catchphrase among politicians and policymakers: “Build more apartments, and we’ll solve the housing crisis.”
It sounds simple—almost too simple. And that’s because it is!
The idea that just increasing supply, particularly through apartment construction, will make housing affordable fails to grasp the true complexities of Australia’s housing market.
In reality, building more apartments is far from the magic bullet many hope it to be, and in some ways, it could even make the situation worse.
In today’s episode, I discuss the complexities surrounding the housing affordability crisis in Australia with Brett Warren.
We challenge the notion that simply building more apartments will solve the issue, emphasising the need for quality housing that caters to various demographics.
We explore the role of government policies, the challenges faced by the construction industry, and the importance of understanding market dynamics for property investors.
The episode wraps up with insights on future housing trends and investment strategies.
Takeaways
Building more apartments isn't a simple solution to housing affordability. Quality of housing is more important than quantity. Demographic shifts are influencing housing needs and preferences. Government policies need to align with actual housing demands. The construction industry faces significant challenges that impact housing supply. Investors should focus on established properties rather than new apartments. Understanding market dynamics is crucial for successful property investment. The housing crisis is expected to persist for several years. Stricter regulations are needed to ensure quality in construction. Opportunities exist in the market despite current obstacles.Chapters

Today, I discuss Australia’s housing crisis in Australia with Brendan Coates, the Housing and Economic Security Program Director at the Grattan Institute.
We explore what’s really driving the housing crisis, the impact of migration and tax policies, and why simply building more homes may not be the silver bullet many think it is.
We also get Brendan’s insights on how we can create a fairer, more sustainable housing market for all Australians.
Our conversation also covers the expectations of first-time home buyers, government responses, and the long-term outlook for housing affordability.
Takeaways
There's a pressure cooker building up for the housing markets. The housing crisis will take a decade to resolve. We haven't built enough housing to meet demand. Migration is playing a role in the housing crisis Rents have risen significantly since the pandemic. Government policies need to focus on increasing housing supply. Stamp duty is a barrier to housing mobility. Social housing is essential for vulnerable populations. Construction costs need to be addressed to improve housing supply.Chapters

It’s the beginning of a New Year, so I’d like to take a step back to reflect on the rollercoaster that was 2024 in the housing markets and gear up for what promises to be an equally fascinating 2025.
Today, I’m joined by Nicola McDougall, chair of PIPA – the Property Investment Professionals of Australia, who has her finger on the pulse of what’s happening in our housing markets as well as a good understanding of all the various players in the property industry.
Nicola and I discuss the unexpected developments in the Australian property markets throughout 2024, the implications of interest rates on my investment strategies, and the ongoing rental crisis.
We also explore the challenges we face as property investors and the impact of government policies on the market, and we share our predictions for the property market in 2025.
Takeaways
2024 was a year of unexpected market conditions but general market resilience. Interest rates are a significant factor affecting property investment and will create a year of 2 halves in 2025. Melbourne's property market has struggled due to various factors. Government policies have made it more challenging for investors. Investors play a crucial role in providing rental accommodation to one third of Australians. The rental crisis has been exacerbated by a reduction in investors. A national outlook is essential for successful property investment as market conditions vary significantly across different regions. Predictions for 2025 suggest continued market fragmentation. Understanding market cycles is key to navigating property investment.Chapters
