Jess and her partner Matt thought they'd found their dream property. With pre-approvals in place, building and pest inspections done and a thorough understanding of the property market behind them, they were ready to battle – until the opening bid was $400,000 over the price guide they'd been given. The couple were constantly being thwarted by cashed-up Sydney buyers, until they came across a goldmine in Sydney's inner west. In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Jess talks to Phil Tarrant and Vivienne Kelly about how she overcame the challenges of buying property in Sydney, what she'll do next and what other buyers are doing wrong. Jess is also head of corporate affairs at Mortgage Choice, so she shares some unique insights into the investor market, what's wrong with the 'property bubble' and how owner-occupiers can easily become property investors. http://www.smartpropertyinvestment.com.au https://twitter.com/philliptarrant

In this episode he reveals how he found high yielding, low-cost locations, and why they were so instrumental in laying the ground work for his investment success.

This week on The Smart Property Investment Show @philliptarrant and Sterling Publishing's group publisher, Alex Whitlock are joined by Mitchell Burge - a low-risk investor who has gone to incredible lengths in order to play it safe. With a loan to value ratio hovering around the 58 per cent mark – conservative figures by any measure. No more than two of his 12 investment properties are with one bank, and he owes no more than $900,000 with one lender. Australia has some of the most resilient banks in the world, so why is Mitchell being so cautious? And will his strategy backfire when it comes to future portfolio growth? That's not all. The 32-year-old's air conditioning business is profitable, and his portfolio is neutrally geared and set to deliver massive future returns, but he still chooses to draw the same salary as he did five years ago – preferring instead to keep the extra earnings for a rainy day. What's his end game – and is playing it safe the smart move, or is Mitchell's strategy overkill in the current interest rate environment? All this and more coming up on this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show.

In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show we're given a rare insight into the investment portfolio of Australian cricketer, Stephen O'Keefe. Elite sports. It takes a lot of time and effort to get to the top, and the base salary mightn't be anything special, but when a win comes through, it can feel like you've won the lottery. When a young Stephen O'Keefe found himself pocketing $100,000 in winnings, he couldn't believe his luck. Like most men in their mid-twenties, his thoughts immediately turned to the lavish lifestyle perks such a payout could afford, with a new luxury car at the top of the list. But a combination of factors stopped him from blowing it all, and turned his focus to property investment instead. Six years later, and with a portfolio of 10 properties to his name, Stephen shares the highs and lows of his investment story with @philliptarrant and Sterling Publishing's group publisher, Alex Whitlock. What was the motivation behind Stephen's foray into property investment, how was he able to avoid the temptation to splash his earnings living life in the fast lane, and what would he change if he had his time over? All this and much more on this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show.
