My resolution for you is that you create the wealth to earn $3000 per week from real estate. Yes, that’s my plan for you! You might prefer $2000 or $1000 or $5000 per week. That’s up to 🙂 If you think that’s a good plan for you, then you’ll love this episode! Because as we get into 2021, I don’t want you to make a NY Resolution to plank for 60 seconds. No! I want you to resolve to be one of the 1% of Australians that own 5 investment properties or more.

How do you treat time? What is your relationship with time like? At times likes this (Merry Christmas!), people think they have no time. But think about it, time is all we have!

And from an investing point of view – you’re doing well if you live for three property cycles. Yes, only three. Each cycle goes for approximately 15 years, and most people don’t fully appreciate how quickly that time goes.

Frontage, floor plans and natural light. Metreage versus volume and circulation space, storage space and community space. These are just some of the major considerations to make when looking at investing in apartments.

Most investors never crack the code of apartments. Small, completely dysfunctional apartments exist everywhere. Knowing how to decipher the best from the rest will make you so glad you made apartments a part of your portfolio.

Off the plan, also known as pre-construction real estate divides investors more than many other topics. It’s more divisive than homes vs apartments, move out or renovate, and maybe even more divisive than Apple vs Samsung and Trump v Biden!

I definitely have a confirmation bias towards including off the plan real estate in your portfolio. I also share my reasons when pre-construction real estate may not be a good idea.

If you only want one or two investment properties in your life, this episode will bore you. If you have ambitions to have more than that, this episode may crack the code of your financial future.

Inequality is one of the biggest megatrends on the planet today. So what does that mean for us property investors? And what can you do to avoid ending up on the wrong side of inequality in your lifetime? This is quite a deep conversation, but we are going to tackle it here and maybe even have a little fun with it.

How’s your relationship with money? It’s a big question very few people like to talk about. For most Australians, it’s terrible AF. That’s why most Australians end up on the pension. On this episode, I share why it’s so bad for most, and how to improve your relationship with money so that you can join the top 1% of Australians who achieve financial independence. I even share stories of a 27 and 31-year-old who are well on their way.

Where is the number one place to invest in Australia? Most people would say Sydney. And if not, then Melbourne would come second. But really, if you want to invest in a city that is 80 years behind Sydney, and has an incredible growth curve ahead of it, the number one place to invest in Australia is Brisbane. And I’m not the only one who sees it that way. On this episode, I give you the art, science and philosophy of why investing in Brisbane could be one of the best financial decisions you ever make.

Are you ready to ride the next big wave of real estate? Most people are looking for the big wave, but I’m here to tell you the undercurrent is where the money’s made. Being able to understand the undercurrent of real estate – which I outline in this episode – will save you from disaster and also help you maximise your investment.

There is a secret language to real estate that most investors do not know. Knowing that most real estate is not worth touching, how do you then listen to the “secret language” of properties that are desirable. This episode explains this secret language so that you buy desirable real estate that will not only provide quality housing to people but help you crack the code of real estate. Enjoy!

More than one-quarter of all suburbs in Australia are considered “smart”. Do you know what that means? If not, then this episode will explain all.

When I went to school, one in ten students went on to get an undergraduate degree. These days, it’s at 50%! We are becoming a smart nation, and real estate grows in areas where smart people live.

So, if you’ve been tempted to buy that bargain-basement property in a place where no one will live in the future, you’ve arrived just in time!

Real estate wealth lives in smart cities and smart neighbourhoods. Know where they are, invest in them, and real estate wealth is yours.

NOTE: I referenced a model regularly in this episode. If you want it send me a message on Facebook @SamSaggers and I’ll send it to you.

Even though it’s the toughest of times for so many, economic downturns signify a new era of wealth building and represent an incredible opportunity to achieve capital growth.

This episode is dedicated to outlining how capital growth will be 20% + by 2022 (as projected by Westpac) and why now is the best time to take advantage of it.

The next 18 months signify perhaps the most important time for property investors and wannabe property investors. As I say towards the end of the episode, if you don’t get in now, you might be waiting for a very long time before you can afford to get into the property market.

Urban Rebirth is happening right in front of our eyes, never more so than during COVID-19. 24-hour cities, so long a normal part of Europe are on the agenda for Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. To understand how this shapes your investing decisions, think no further than the 5km radius rule implemented in Melbourne during lockdown.

22 million out of Australia’s 25 million live in the urban world. From capital cities and large regional centres, most of us live very close together. And that won’t be changing anytime soon.

And whilst many people are working from home at the moment, the digital age will not destroy the physical way of life. Instead, we are now living in the phygital world – the combination of the physical and the digital. And as a property investor, it’s paramount to know what this means for real estate.
