Mythbusting #3: "Property Doubles every 7-10 years"
EIn this week's episode, Sam Gordon and James Ibrahim are joined in the studio by APS Strategists Luke Teeuwsen and Naaman Ward, along with Discovery Call Strategist and experienced property investor Brendan Geoghegan. Together, they tackle the age-old debate: Does property really double in value every 7-10 years? With so many "experts" pushing this simplified approach, crucial factors are often overlooked— like timing the market, understanding cycles, diversifying portfolios, and knowing when to exit. Is the traditional narrative missing the mark in today’s ever-changing market? Tune in for an insightful chat packed with strategies to navigate today’s property landscape and elevate your investment approach. School of Property is the ultimate education destination to master property investment, with a curriculum meticulously designed and crafted with both beginners and experts in mind.

7 Properties + $2m in Net Equity in 3 Years with Kev and Carmela
Sam Gordon sits down with APS clients Kev and Carmela, a dynamic duo who’ve built an impressive $5.95 million property portfolio through sheer determination and hard work. Starting in teaching and accounting, they shifted gears to own and operate three successful cafes in Sydney, where they’ve worked hard to build them from the ground up (and overcoming the impact of COVID on the hospitality industry). Kev and Carmela began their property journey individually, each purchasing their first properties, then combining forces to acquire five investments properties in a short period. After purchasing their primary residence in 2021, they connected with Sam and APS, and that partnership has since transformed their path to financial freedom. With nearly $2 million in net equity they are well on their way to achieving $200k in passive income to allow Carmela to step back from working and allow them both to spend more time with their young family. This episode is seriously inspiring and shows what can be achieved if you set a goal and commit completely.

How This 25yr old Tradie Built a 3 Property Portfolio with $480k Equity in 12 months!
ESam Gordon and Jimmy Ibrahim sit down this week with Bailey, an inspirational 25 year old that has grinded hard over the past 12 months to purchase 3 investment properties, creating $480k in equity starting with a $60k deposit. Bailey started as a labourer at 17 and spent years working hard in construction; and like many young people blowing money on fun — like jet skis, partying and drinking. But with no clear financial goal in mind, Bailey was on the path many young Australians find themselves on: living for the moment, without thinking of future wealth. Bailey shares how everything changed when he watched his older sister Morgan, Senior Buyers Agent and General Manager at Australian Property Scout, succeed in property. Rather than reinventing the wheel, he chose to follow in the footsteps of someone who had already paved the way, trusting in her and Sam’s advice and staying focused on long-term goals. If you're looking for inspiration to kickstart your own property investing journey, Bailey’s story is a must-listen. Tune in to hear his incredible transformation from spending recklessly to building serious wealth through property.
