Understanding Investor Behaviours w/ ”Magic Mike” Mortlock

Back for round 2, we have the very special “Magic Mike” Mortlock in the studio to run through his impressive data set on understanding investor behaviours. The depth and breadth of the data that Mike and his team at MCG Quantity Surveyors collect means that Mike is truly the expert in this field, so who else would we get back on, other than our fan favourite Mike. Sam and Mike dissect the intriguing data ranging from how far people are investing from where they live, the effects COVID and beyond have had on locations that investors are purchasing, buyer activity in 2023 and so much more. You can’t find this investor behaviour data anywhere else.
