November 25, 2025 How He Built a $10+ Million Property Portfolio in 5 Years

When COVID uncertainty hit, Aman Sethi went from owning two properties to adding six more in quick succession, while running a fast growing migration & careers business. The Property Nerds break down the “executive homes in the middle ring” strategy, the finance decisions that unlocked scale and how Aman used equity as a safety buffer to keep moving when others froze.

Aman Sethi is a valued InvestorKit client and the founder of a dual arm business: visa & migration advisory plus job search/coaching and staffing solutions across Australia. His portfolio built largely interstate and often sight unseen focuses on quality assets with strong yield and long term growth fundamentals.

How staying on top of valuations and recycling equity creates buffers that enable decisive action.
The mindset shift high income professionals need to scale beyond 1-2 properties, quality over count, data over emotion.
