Sustainable property investing: Balance, security, and smart growth

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Kev Tran, director and principal buyer’s agent at Kev Tran Group, to discuss the importance of sustainable property investing.

Kev defines sustainability as gaining financial security with less stress and more free time, emphasising the importance of aligning investment strategies with personal goals, whether prioritising cash flow or steady portfolio growth.

The duo stresses the importance of building a strong team, such as brokers and accountants, to manage complex financing, advises maintaining liquidity and emergency funds, and warns against overleveraging and the costly effects of frequently upgrading a principal place of residence.

Kev also emphasises understanding economic fundamentals over relying on past market performance, pointing to emerging areas like Townsville.
