In this Q&A episode, Stuart unpacks a wide range of listener questions, from navigating complex property strategies to exploring the role of diversification in a balanced investment portfolio. He shares tailored insights with AJ on managing a high-income household, including whether to sell, develop, or hold investment properties, how to structure super contributions and if moving into a completed knockdown-rebuild could offer tax advantages.

Peter and Veronika weigh whether to sell their fully paid-off Rockdale unit or hold while rentvesting—and Stuart considers the timing and risks of Sydney’s apartment market. For Greg, the focus is on helping his sons grow their first home savings using more effective vehicles than a basic bank account.

The episode also features an in-depth question from DIY David, who is deciding whether to sell two fully paid-off Perth investment properties in favour of ETFs, with a keen focus on diversification and CGT strategy. Lastly, Stuart offers practical, step-by-step investment guidance to Craig as he and his partner look to balance mortgage repayments, wealth building, and retirement goals.

If you’re navigating property development, family wealth planning, or retirement strategy, this episode is packed with practical advice and long-term thinking. Tune in now for a strategy-focused Q&A that could reshape how you approach your next financial move.
