In this week's episode, Sammy Gordon is joined in the studio by his co-host Jimmy Ibrahim and APS Strategist Luke Teeuwsen. The boys are in the studio discussing why so many investors get stuck at 1 or 2 properties into their investing journey. They delve into the common reasons including lack of strategy, viewing more expensive properties as superior and therefore maxing out borrowing power, and being lured into properties that would be eligible for government grants. The most important way to avoid falling into this trap is to surround yourself with the correct team to avoid making mistakes and becoming stuck; along with sticking to the strategy through the tough times to achieve your property investing goals. Strictly limited tickets are available to the Australian Property Scout Summit on Sunday, November 17th at The Star in Sydney. You will leave with actionable steps, expert inspiration and direction to level up your property investing game, along with the opportunity to be surrounded by the APS and SAP community to expand and develop your circle of influence.

This week on the podcast, Sam Gordon is accompanied by Jimmy Ibrahim and Luke Teeuwsen to delve into the Australian Property Scout mission of retiring 500 by 2030. The trio discusses the metrics involved with setting and managing the goal along with the essence of retirement and what it means to each client. Sam shares insights into what his initial goals were when he first began in property, how he reached them, and offers advice on the importance of resetting and pursuing goals persistently, something he has practised himself numerous times. Sam, Luke and Jimmy explore the reasoning behind choosing an ethical and sustainable goal rather than an arbitrarily grand one. They discuss the importance of taking the first step of the journey and celebrating each little step along the way, rather than postponing happiness until the ultimate goal is reached. This episode totally highlights the passion and care everyone in APS has for their clients, and in turn this mission.

Sammy Gordon welcomes a special guest and long time friend to the studio this week: Leon Cusack. Leon's story is incredibly inspiring from a childhood with parents who sacrificed everything for himself and his siblings, to his pivotal light bulb moment after reading Rich Dad Poor Dad, and his discipline to commit to his strategy whole heartedly. Over the span of 4 years, Leon has built an impressive $2.5 million property portfolio, with a huge $1 million in equity. Leon and Sam reflect on the beginnings of their friendship playing soccer as young kids, and the reason that Leon decided property investment would be his vehicle to create wealth. Leon's pure dedication and determination is clear at every point in his story, and his commitment to the speed at which he is growing his portfolio and the clear trajectory that he is on is contagious.
