In todays episode I sit down with Nikki and Paul Harms, the power couple behind PJH Construction and Next Project, who’ve made their mark on the Gold Coast building scene through grit, risk-taking, and beautifully designed homes.

• Their first big subdivision play in Koala Park – and how that one decision changed everything

In todays episode I dive into the potential double interest rate drop that could drastically shift the landscape for Gold Coast buyers, sellers, and investors, and what this means for you.

The market isn’t boiling… but it’s bubbling. If rates drop and confidence rises, competition will heat up fast. Now might be your best chance to get in before prices jump.
