#105: The Property Bet That Could Make or Break Your Portfolio In Your 40s!


Listen Later

What if the home you choose today could either unlock financial freedom or become your biggest regret? Today on NOTG, George, Jun Wei, and Yu Rong dive into the high-stakes decision faced by personas Peter and Lucy, a couple earning $25,000 each, torn between a landed property or a high-quantum 4- or 5-bedder condo.

 

With a $4 million to $5 million loan on the table, the wrong move could mean stretching their finances too thin or missing out on future gains. Should they prioritise an own-stay home, an investment strategy, or a mix of both? Which option carries the biggest risks or the highest upside? The discussion digs into the real impact of stress test rates, explores landed home conditions, and breaks down how uneven income between partners can affect ownership structure.

 

Plus, why installing a lift in a landed home might be one of the smartest investments they can make. For those planning their next big property decision, this episode offers a data-driven perspective on what works, what doesn’t, and how to make the most of every dollar invested. Tune in now!
