This week on DAY ZERO, Angus is joined by Sean Phuah, newly appointed Founding Partner Buyers Agent at FOUNDIT, to trace an unlikely journey from the lecture halls of Kuala Lumpur to the prestige streets of Sydney's Lower North Shore.

From his accidental entry into real estate through a Chinese property media company, to nearly boarding a one-way flight back to Malaysia, Sean shares how stints under two of Sydney's most respected agents shaped his instincts, and why he ultimately traded the selling side for buyer advocacy.

Sean also unpacks the danger of buying at a premium in a FOMO market, and what drew him to FOUNDIT's data-driven model, including a research team that priced an off-market property within 5% accuracy from twelve photos alone.
