In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant sits down with Paul Mollica, principal property strategist at Wealthkey Property, to unpack the evolving landscape of financial planning and property investment in Australia.

Mollica, who shifted from a 20-year financial planning career to focus exclusively on property strategy, highlights the importance of transparency and taking ownership of one's financial journey.

He notes that regulatory constraints often prevent financial advisors from providing comprehensive property advice, leaving Australians with missed wealth-building opportunities.

Drawing on his own experience, Mollica explains that clients with property investments often outperform those relying solely on traditional assets like shares and managed funds.

He criticises over-regulation for making financial advice less accessible and costly, which forces many to navigate their finances without professional guidance.

At Wealthkey Property, Mollica provides data-driven strategies, emphasising buying the right property in the right location and leveraging assets to maximise returns, a method that has grown his personal portfolio to nearly $7.5 million since 2022.
