In this powerful episode, Sammy Gordon sits down with long-time Australian Property Scout client and committed property investor David, who shares his journey from a self-confessed “super green, super naive” beginner to building a multi-million dollar property portfolio. David opens up about his humble beginnings, the early spark of inspiration he found listening to podcasts, and the life-changing moment he connected with a young buyer’s agent whose story deeply resonated with him.

From reaching out for help in 2020 to now owning 8 investment properties and a family home with his wife Alicia, David reflects on the mindset shifts, sacrifices, and lessons that shaped his growth. Tune in to hear how he overcame setbacks, balanced family life with investing, and how surrounding himself with the right team helped unlock his success in the property game.
