366 | How to Break into the Property Market?
Folks, the last time we unpacked a case study on the podcast was back in Episode 64 on 19th of May 2016. (WHAT?!!!)So… you can imagine how excited we were with this episode, can’t you? In fact, Ben said this at the very start…“MAAAAATE…. This is a MEGA episode!”And no, he’s not exaggerating! What we are doing today is a bit of Myth Busting coupled with some data, graph and cashflow modelling. And here’s a spoiler… You’ll be very surprised at our proposed strategy for this case study cause it’s not exactly what we’ve been banging on about for the last 300+ episodes.Why are we proposing this then?Well….Cause we are going through a rapid price growth cycle and our strategy needs to be flexible and agile!But before you start tearing off those pages in your custom-made The Property Couch Textbook (just joking but if you have one, please let us know!) remember this…….
