Mythbusting #5: You Can't Buy Below Market Value

In this week's episode, Sam Gordon and James Ibrahim are joined in the studio by APS Senior Buyers Agent Morgan Holmes and Jase. They tackle whether you can indeed still buy below market value OR NOT. They discuss what it really means and how to identify true market value.

Sam and the team explore whether retail investors can still secure these deals, the role of buyers' agents in the current market, and the common misconception that 'off-market' always equals a good deal. They also dive into the importance of strategy, education, and knowing how to spot genuine opportunities. This episode is a must-listen!
