Get Invested With Bushy Martin

Commercial property can generate steady cash flow over long periods with long-term leases in place. However, there’s a perception commercial property doesn’t perform as well when it comes to capital growth and value appreciation. But does this really hold true?   We get the opinion of a buyers agent who specialises in commercial property investment.  Also today - according to the driver of the National Property Management Institute and VCAT legislation go to guy, recent rental changes in Victoria have created more problems than solutions.

Becoming proficient in property investment is like learning a foreign language, but you can master it, says Kate Hill. Like marathon runners and migrants from other countries, the traits that separate those that achieve sustainable success in property are those that demonstrate the qualities of curiosity, embracing change and continuous learning, embracing mistakes as learning opportunities not failures, and demonstrating the patience, persistence and resilience to overcome obstacles and last the distance through dogged determination and daily discipline. Our guest Kate Hill is a shining example of this. Kate was previously on the show back on episodes 254 and 255, but for those who don't know her she is an avid property investor with many years of firsthand experience buying and researching real estate, and being a Property Coach and Mentor before founding the successful national buyers agency team Advisable. And I think Advisable is a great name for the business, because it means to be recommended and sensi

AI - Artificial Intelligence - is very much a part of our lives.  It is working in places we don’t even realise.  As an example - did you realise AI could be impacting your borrowing ability? Bushy discusses that with finance broker and thought leader Jason Back.   Also this week we present another installment of our special series on Property Management. Lauren Robinson talks tech with Bushy and how to leverage the opportunities it offers.

You might believe that the Australian dream of home ownership is dead, let alone property investing. But Aaron Christie-David returns to the show to infuse you with hope.  The mainstream media has been waging a war against Australian property for years, filling the pages and airwaves with stories of doom and gloom ... which continue to be proven untrue, time and time again! 54% of our personal wealth is tied to value of our homes in Australia, and our homes make up a big portion of our personal expression, family memories and pride.  If home ownership is still something that’s important to you, your children, your family and your loved ones, and if property investing is a part of your wealth strategy or plans, then you'll love some fresh motivation from Aaron Christie-David on the podcast today. We heard his story in the previous episode, now we're going to unpack the insights from his recently released book ‘The Happy Home Loan Handbook’ to help you navigate the world of property finance, buy your dream home

Today - your host Bushy Martin will introduce our first guest in a series to help investors in the area of property management.  What better place to start than in the selection of a person to look after the management of your investment.  Getting a PM who treats your investment as if it was his or own. The opposite of FOMO - Fear Of Missing Out - is missing an opportunity BECAUSE of fear.   The cost of that can be extreme as you will hear today.  NEW – join our Facebook group, The Property Hub Collective: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1857513011165686 Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

Are you making the most of opportunity in the lucky country? Aaron Christie-David talks about maximising life in Australia with property as a vehicle to make it happen. Unlike many Australians, Aaron has recognised how good we’ve got it here in Australia and has made the most it since moving here when he was young, demonstrating that constant hard work and resilience can transform possibility into reality. Aaron has continuously done what it takes and taken the action to make it happen instead of letting it happen, driven by his underlying attitude of gratitude. As a fellow mortgage broker, Aaron has come from humble beginnings to build his award winning Atelier Wealth business together with his wife and family, and he’s just released his new book The Happy Home Loan Handbook.  This episode Aaron shares his inspiring journey, and in part 2 we'll unpack all the key insights from his new book.

Regional or city? That's always a big question for property investors, especially in Queensland. Troyson Bassani shares his insights. Sticking close to the city was always preferred for many property investors ... until COVID hit. Then we saw an exodus to the regional areas, and that trend has stuck.  For city centric property players push the capital concentration barrow, using employers return to work requirements to justify the story around the boomerang effect of people returning to the cities. On the flip side, the continued tree change and sea change regional exodus to lifestyle, conveniently suits property players pushing a national borderless and regional approach. So who is right? The answer: It depends. It depends on why you're buying, what the property needs to achieve and what you can afford to buy. I talk more about this through this week's episode, where Troyson Bassani joins again to share what he's learned about the pros and cons of regional markets especially in his home turf of regional Quee

We have a blockbuster for our 600th show.  This week we help if you are actively invested in residential property and interested in diversifying into commercial property. Bushy is joined by Mish Daniel the founder of commercial buyers agency Revolve Commercial to discuss the differences between resi and commercial and why it is important to understand them before getting started.  Also Bushy asks Dr Cameron Murray, Chief Economist at Fresh Economic Thinking, what’s really going on with housing affordability and what needs to change.

Having a home built can be a nightmare.  Just ask anyone who has done it.  Even with a builder, you might experience missed deadlines, cost blowouts, misunderstandings, little or no communication and so on.  This experience leads some people to do it themselves as an owner/builder.  Unfortunately, most owner/builders don’t know what they don’t know.   There is a better way.  It is called Build Buddy.   NEW – join our Facebook group, The Property Hub Collective: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1857513011165686 Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

If you're investing in regional property, how do you find the best insights and support? Troyson Bassani joins us to talk about this and more.  Being a successful property investor starts with recognising that you can't do it all, and you need the best professionals around you.  This is particularly important when investing in regional property, especially when you don't have first hand knowledge of the regions.  So how do you buy well? Work with a good and proven professional buyers agent who’s an expert and specialist in their location and property type. And today’s guest is another example of one – Troyson Bassani is the Founder & Head of Research at Life Buyers Agency, who specialise in securing property in the north, central and south east Queensland regional property markets – opportunity areas that are getting a lot of increased attention in recent times. To date, Troyson and his Life Buyers Agency have helped secure over $150 million dollars worth of property across the central Queensland region f

It is estimated - according to a recent NAB survey - that up to 3.5% of all property purchasers in Australia are completed with the assistance of a buyer's agent compared to 45% in the USA where buyer’s agents are a much more used resource.  Some estimate that figure will climb to 37% in Australia.  Just one week ago in the US, courts ruled in favour of a group of consumers on a compensation claim worth $415M that relates to how buyers agents are paid in that country.  If approved, it is set to turn the commission structure and selling process in the USA on its head.  Already some industry leaders are looking at the Australian model as a guide.   But today we look the value they bring to the buying process with REBAA President Melinda Jennison.  Negative Gearing is under attack - I was going to say again but it would be more accurate to say still.  The Greens are again looking to label Mum and Dad investors as the baddies.  Rasti joins Bushy to discuss the likelihood something might happen and what the impact

How you manage your property finance will make or break your property investment strategy, says Lawrie Moore.  And it has never been more important to put a plan in place to maximise your borrowing capacity and increase your purchasing power.  Yet many investors just follow the wind of rising costs and interests rates, waiting and hoping that circumstances will shift. So how do you get proactive with property finance and increase opportunity? Lawrie Moore joins us for part 2 of his chat. Lawrie is one of Know How Property’s very own award winning Senior Broker partners who consistently earns and builds the trust and respect of everyone he helps with, and has helped many safely secure their dream homes and property portfolios by maximising their capacity, while minimising their costs and risk. So today and next week we're going to deep dive with him on his own background and approach to help you to be able to separate a trusted top broker from the rest, so that you can set up your financial future the right wa

Two questions we are asked over and over: Are units a better investment than houses?and Should I invest in the regions or capital cities?   This week we set out to help with answers to both of these.  Bushy gives us his take on the location - city or region and he seeks Terry Ryder's thoughts on houses and units. Fair to say that there is no one answer, so what we will do is give you some sound grounding so you can make the decision that best suits your structure and strategy.

It can be hard to know who to trust, especially in the property industry. Lawrie Moore talks about how to build a top team of property professionals to support your goals. It goes without saying that trust is mission critical to the success and sustainability of all of our relationships and interactions, but sadly finding and experiencing real genuine trust is increasingly under threat and a rare commodity given the crisis of trust we now experience in the world.  Sustainable success in property is a game of finance and an elite team sport, and this is all revolves around trust, but its not easy to navigate the banks, brokers and agents to find the best people.  To help us do that, we're joined by Lawrie Moore.

When growth is flatlining, how do you continue to create value as a property investor? We continue our conversation with Drew Evans. When your borrowing capacity and property purchasing power is capped out, investors can add value and create instant equity through building properties - renovating, subdividing or developing. That might sound scary for you, because we all know of (or have experienced) development disasters and builder busts, but if you can manage the three key elements of cost, time delivery and quality you could open up huge opportunities. To talk about how, Drew Evans shares his insights on small developments.  Drew is an active property investor who has built up a property portfolio valued at $25 million over the last 10 years. He is passionate about helping his clients benefit from the same strategy that has fast-tracked his personal portfolio.

Building wealth with property takes time, but is there a faster way? Drew Evans shares his insights. As I always say, building wealth with property is a long-term game, and with a low-stress, sustainable strategy most people are looking at a commitment of at least 15 years.  Of course, there are faster ways but there is no silver bullet - it all depends on your borrowing capacity, equity, knowledge, expertise, risk appetite etc.  To talk about how to accelerate your property investment strategy, we've got a two-part interview with Drew Evans from Caifu Property. Drew is an active property investor who has built up a property portfolio valued at $25 million over the last 10 years. He is passionate about helping his clients benefit from the same strategy that has fast-tracked his personal portfolio. This week we’re going to delve into Drew's personal investment journey to break down what he's done differently and why, and in next week’s part 2 episode he’ll deep dive into the detail of how he is now helping oth
