In a recent exclusive investor roundtable hosted by Smart Property Investment, Phil Tarrant speaks with InvestorKit's Arjun Paliwal and Chris Huxter to unpack real-world strategies, journeys, and lessons from the coalface of the property market.

The trio underscores the value of having a community where investors can speak openly about money, yields, and strategies without fear or favour, turning what is often a lonely journey into a shared one.

Paliwal reveals how he moved from banking into a data-led buyer's agency model that puts numbers ahead of aesthetics, helping thousands of investors outperform the national average.

Huxter then details his shift from data centres to managing a $2.2 billion shopping centre fund and into the commercial buyer's agency space, reflecting the rising appetite for commercial assets.

Around the table, investors discuss building multi-million-dollar portfolios, rapid property accumulation, and blending residential and commercial holdings for growth and income, showing how people from all walks of life are using real estate as a vehicle for long-term wealth.

Themes of diversification, data-driven decision-making, evolving buyer's agency models, and the influence of family history and personal goals on investment choices threaded through the conversation.
