With inflation remaining stubbornly high and interest rates continuing to increase, people are really feeling the costs of life are adding up. So, it's probably a good time to start being smarter with our money, aka, become a bit of a tightarse. For this week's episode, I sit down with our investment expert and self proclaimed tightarse, Luke Harris, on how being a tightarse and building good money habits can not only save you money but get you closer to building wealth through property. Enjoy!
This week, we bring you our fourth investor's journey episode as alongside mentoring our valued members we also love to celebrate and share their wins, show how far they’ve come and hear about their goals. Our investor today is Shaun Polidano who during his time here at The Property Mentors, has been guided and mentored by the wonderful Malika. Shaun shares how his experience as a small business owner led to some initial challenges early on in regards to banks and borrowing capacities. He also talks about how he plans to use his extensive experience as a renter, both the good and the bad, to be the best landlord he can be. He’s also got one of the most unique laughs you'll ever hear. Enjoy!
My guest for this week is Bushy Martin who is known as one of Australia's most trusted experts in property, investment and lifestyle. He’s an investor, an author, a podcast host, a speaker, media commentator and alongside his wife he is the co-founder of KnowHow Property finance where he helps people to live by design, not by default. Just the way he does. Today, Bushy talks about how he got to where he is today, what he's learned from talking to a range of expert guests on his own podcasts (including Luke Harris) and gives not one but three bits of his best advice from a mentors perspective.
For this week's episode, I have yet another expert guest sitting down with me. Denis Durand is the director of Durand Financial Services and a financial adviser with more than 20 years of experience behind him in the financial services industry. Today, we discuss what a financial planner does, how they are different from an accountant, the types of insurance they can help with and what his key piece of advice would be for people wanting to get into investing.
Following on from last weeks episode, this is part two of my chat with Andrew Purdie. Andrew is the managing director of Bennett Williams which is a full-service property development company. You may also recognise him as one of the hosts of the popular TV show Australia's Best House. Today, we talk about the launch of his foundation, his upcoming podcast and his key advice to those who'd like to pursue a career as a property developer.
We often hear around The Property Mentors office that many want to become property developers. But what does it really take and how does it differ from being a property investor? To answer these questions, I've invited Andrew Purdie on the show. Andrew is the managing director of Bennett Williams which is a full-service property development company as well as one of the hosts of the TV show Australia's Best House. This is part one of my chat with Andrew, where we cover how he got to where he is today, what it takes to become a property developer and his advice to those who'd like to pursue a career as one.
