Reinvesting v's buying a primary residence: how long do I need invest in rental properties before I can buy my primary residence? We hear this incredibly common question both in our Discovery and Strategy calls, so why not jump in and unpack this popular debate for many Australians at all stages of their investment journey.

Find out if you’re starting from scratch whether you should invest or purchase a primary residence first (hint: invest), the exact strategy, time frames and the step-by-step process to get you into your dream family home with an investment portfolio creating passive income that could pay for the mortgage.

We have our resident fan favourite and APS Senior Buyers Agent Jason Titus, joining Sam and Jimmy back in the studio to discuss and dissect this topic.
