150 properties in 17 years, and Sam Gordon thinks the current market fear is exactly backwards.

Sam and Todd tackle the biggest concerns on every investor's mind: will the market collapse, are interest rates heading back to the 1980s, and is now actually a terrible time to buy? Sam breaks down why he's buying more aggressively than ever, and why the housing shortage, migration boom, and recent super and negative gearing changes are quietly setting up one of the biggest rental booms Australia has seen in years.

The conversation also gets personal, covering pity predator tenants, the growing stigma around being a property investor, and the uncomfortable maths behind who actually provides housing when the system can't. This episode is a must watch for anyone feeling uncertain about property right now, whether you're just starting out or sitting on a growing portfolio.

Melbourne's blue chip market has copped one of the biggest corrections in the country. Seven years of sliding prices, some suburbs down over a million dollars from their 2017 peaks. Warning sign or golden window?

Arjun Paliwal from InvestorKit runs the actual numbers: a $1.85 million purchase, real cash flow, holding costs, and future rate movements compared against buying three more affordable properties elsewhere. What looks brutal on paper tells a very different story once the full picture is factored in.

This opportunity isn't for everyone. But for the right investor, this episode is a must watch. The numbers make the case better than the headlines do.

Property prices have doubled in some suburbs over the last five years. Dawn Fouhy, from Future Proof Property, says the real danger now isn't a crash. It's something far sneakier.

Todd sits down with Dawn to unpack where buyer demand is quietly drying up across Queensland, WA, and South Australia. From Ipswich to Perth's north to the city of Playford, they walk through why the suburbs that smashed it over the past five years might now be the ones to avoid and why the herd is already moving somewhere else.

Dawn also delivers a blunt take on house and land packages, tax deduction driven buying, and why she'd rather miss a rally than get caught holding an asset nobody wants to buy in ten years. If you've been eyeing a guaranteed rental return new build lately, this episode is a must watch before you sign anything.

The price gap between houses and units in Sydney has blown out to record levels. Melbourne units are still what Simon Loo calls "artificially early" in their cycle. So which city's units are the smarter buy in 2026?

Simon Loo of House Finder, who runs a $50 million portfolio, joins Todd to unpack the debate that's split the market for over a decade. He breaks down his Compromise Effect theory, the cultural forces distorting suburbs, why yield alone should never be the reason to buy, and what has to happen in Melbourne before its units follow suit.

This episode is a must watch if you're weighing up where the next twelve months of opportunity lie.

The biggest regret investors carry isn't the deal they did. It's the one they didn't.

Arjun Paliwal, founder of InvestorKit, joins a live Q&A to unpack portfolio construction, exit strategy, and how to make confident decisions in an uncertain market. From a first-timer asking whether he can retire on two properties to seasoned investors chasing their next smart move, Arjun breaks down the five-point checklist he uses before any purchase and why "moment in time" thinking distorts how people judge yield, cash flow, and interest rates.

The conversation covers post-budget changes to negative gearing and CGT, regional versus capital city growth, SMSF property decisions, and why chasing high yield alone is a trap. This episode is a must watch for anyone building or scaling a portfolio. Watch the full episode to hear Arjun's checklist and apply it to your next move.

Construction prices could be about to jump by as much as 50%. The reasons are more complex than most builders will admit.

Rob Flux breaks down the three forces converging on the building industry right now, labour shortages, blown-out timelines, and materials costs driven up by global conflict, and why two of them are actually the same problem in disguise. He and Todd unpack why Australia's building industry is still using methods the rest of the world moved on from decades ago and how modular and prefabricated construction could protect builders and homeowners from runaway costs.

This episode is a must watch before you lock in your next build or gamble on where costs land in two years.

Job gone. Marriage over. Assets wiped. All within 24 hours. What followed was a hotel room, an empty bank account, and a phone call to a mate begging for a place to crash.

Todd sits down with Trent, who went from rock bottom to a property portfolio worth over five million dollars, by way of a last-minute trip to Italy, a hidden $80,000 credit card debt, and a comeback that was anything but conventional.

Trent opens up about the buyer's agents who got it right and wrong, the government changes threatening everything he's rebuilt, and why taking imperfect action beats waiting for the perfect plan. This episode is a must watch. It's one of the most compelling comeback stories in property.
