In this episode of The Property Nerds, hosts Arjun Paliwal and Adrian Lee from InvestorKit and Jack Fouracre from Fouracre Financial speak with Aman Sethi about how he has strategically built an $11 million property portfolio across eight properties in just five years.

The conversation explores how his journey began with a focus on property value over quantity, allowing him to prioritise high-return assets rather than chasing numbers.

A pivotal part of his strategy was rapidly expanding from two to eight properties, leveraging strong equity and robust income amid the COVID-19 pandemic property boom.

His business, JICS Australia, provided financial stability during this period, enabling him to pursue aggressive investment opportunities.

Sethi's portfolio spans executive homes in middle-ring suburbs with unique features, delivering strong rental yields and significant capital growth, including a standout Adelaide property that nearly doubled in value.

Even properties that presented challenges offered valuable lessons, helping him refine his approach and work effectively with tenants and advisory partners.

Money management, long-term planning, and removing emotion from investment decisions have been central to his success.
