Meet the ‘geek’ taking back his weekdays

Having a job that overlaps with your passion has allowed this self-professed property geek to hit the sweet spot of investment journeys — and he’s only just getting started. In this episode, Smart Property Investment’s Grace Ormsby sits down with Max Sim to unpack his motivations for building out a property investment portfolio: the freedom to choose. The graduate of architecture may have taken a less-travelled path out of his degree — making a move into the software space — but Max now applies these skills to his property development passion projects as he strives to earn back his weekdays. Grace and Max look at “what can go wrong” along the way — and consider why due diligence is such an integral aspect of any property purchase. They also note the importance of keeping clients happy — especially when it’s your wife!
