Unlocking your 'why' will transform your year, and your life. Bushy Martin explains how to do it. How often to you reflect on the past to garner your learnings, and plan for the future so that you’ve got clear goals and targets that you’re looking to achieve? This is crucial for investors, and anyone who is serious about creating a life worth living.

Let's get started. Take action Write down your perfect day, and share it with me! This will embed it further into your unconscious and it will also introduce an element of accountability

For many people, the property market must be very frustrating and seem like a goal that is forever out of reach.  By the time they save the deposit, the property values have increased so much that they never seem to have enough to get started.  The solution could be Lenders Mortgage Insurance but why do so many people go to such great lengths to avoid it?  That is the topic Bushy talks about this week.  Also in today’s show he rounds out the second installment of his look at Property Management by laying out the risks of self management.

What will happen in Australian property in 2024? Hear from the experts in this live Q and A. This episode is a re-run from the recent live Q&A session on The Property Hub Collective Facebook group, hosted by Eddie the Frenchman and anchored by the one and only industry legend Kevin Turner. Kevin and Eddie were joined by Bushy Martin along with Rasti Vaibhav from Get RARE Property Buyers Agents to share views on property and finance topics for the year ahead from an investor and industry perspective. During this interactive, lively, informative and very enjoyable session, the Property Hub Collective crew answered a lot of your burning property and finance questions, including: - What’s likely to happen with interest rates and why? - Are property prices going to keep increasing over the next 15-20 years? - Should you be looking for: high growth or high yield in residential properties? - Tips on how to improve your overall cash flow affordability -  A discussion on regional vs capital city properties - We de

As we approach the end of year, this is the time to take stock, assess your position and decide if now is the time to pivot.  One of the questions you should ask is - if it’s better to pay off your home loan or to invest any of your surplus funds, especially now with interest rates at historic low. In the second part of the show today Bushy will look at one other question you might want to explore to do with property management.

Local knowledge is key to investment success, says Michael Olivieri. We introduced you to Michael in the previous episode of Get Invested, where he talked about securing his first investment property at the tender age of just 21 and building his portfolio to over $3.5 million by the age of 29. Now he owns a successful buyers agency on the Central Coast of NSW. In part 2 of the discussion, Michael gets in to the nitty gritty of property investing, revealing why intimate local area expertise and familiarity is critical to securing outperforming properties in outperforming areas. Local knowledge trumps desk top data, even in the age of AI.  But quality data is still crucial - we need to balance local intimacy with independent data-driven evidence. Much unpacks all of this, and much more.

It is the time of year when the predictions about what the market will do in the new year ahead start to dominate the news cycle.  This year we will take a different approach and reflect on the predictions about 2023 that were made this time last year - by the banks - and fact check against what actually happened.  Bushy does that with the help of Simon Pressley in this week's show.  Then we introduce you to Eddie Tchigique - the man behind the Property Hub Collective - our Facebook community that is growing very strongly because so many people feel totally confused and overwhelmed by conflicting property information.  The Collective offers unbiased and balanced advice based on experience.   To close out today’s offering, Bushy has penned, and delivers in true Bushy style, his ‘Hypothetical’ where he challenges you to imagine an ideal Australia.    NEW – join our Facebook group, The Property Hub Collective: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1857513011165686 Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

Understanding the power of time is one of the most important thing property investors must learn, says Michael Olivieri. Investment success is never about when, it’s always about where and what, because the best time to invest is always every time you can. And the earlier you start, and the more time you have up your sleeve, the easier it is. If you’ve got 15+ years up your sleeve, investing can be like a casual stroll in the park. But if your like the many who leave it until their late 40s and beyond and suddenly have their ‘Oh Shit Super Moment’ when they realise that their super is not going to be anywhere near enough to sustain their lifestyle when they stop work, investing in a short time frame can be like a white knuckle ride. So the earlier you start the easier it is and today’s guest Michael Olivieri is a living example of the success of this approach. From a young age Michael could see the benefit of property ownership and wanted to get started as quickly as he could. And as a result, he’s dedicated

Should you pay cash, finance or lease your vehicle or equipment? Michael Johnston is back again to continue the discussion.  The short answer to this question: It depends. It depends on the specifics of your situation and circumstances, there isn’t a one size fits all approach to funding your assets.  But one thing is for sure, FOMO is dangerous - and it is very easy to get sucked in to that car yard’s ‘once in a lifetime deal’ only to find yourself in a world of financial pain. This again is where the dual concepts of access versus ownership and opportunity cost that we touched on in last week’s episode come into play. And if it’s better in your particular situation to finance it, do you take out a personal loan, hire purchase, lease, novated lease, chattel mortgage or other alternative? The truth is, that in our time poor world, asset finance is becoming increasingly more complex, confusing and overwhelming, so to enable you to see the forest from the trees and better decide what’s right for you, experience

Did you know there are more than thirteen million spare, unused bedrooms in Australia right now?  This week we ask if that can help ease the housing crisis.  Also this week Bushy firms up on the notion that property is a game of finance and then he introduces a concept that makes owning a home more affordable with a zero deposit home loan. But in a compelling piece from Bushy, he raises some big questions about insurance and if you are still covered.  NEW – join our Facebook group, The Property Hub Collective: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1857513011165686 Join the Property Hub community on Substack!

Understanding access versus ownership as well as opportunity cost is key for investors. You have the option to pay less of your hard earned cash now to get access and control over an asset, while your remaining monies are invested elsewhere. By putting on a pair of investment glasses you can start to make your financial decisions differently, by asking yourself: How can I control and enjoy access to this asset now at minimal cost, while freeing up my funds to invest in other high growth opportunities? To talk about this and more is our guest, Michael Johnston.  Michael is the Director of National Direct Finance and a top asset finance broker. In an environment that is getting increasingly more complex and overwhelming, Michael and his team combine decades of experience across multiple lenders and loan solutions, helping you source, structure, negotiate and deliver the best available result to suit your specific needs. This week we unpack Michael's personal journey before we deep dive into the detail of asset

We’re at the time of year again when everyone is wondering what’s in store for property in the year ahead, particularly in light of another incredible year that’s continued to defy most expectations.

Could that special thing you're super passionate about also be your big investment opportunity? This is the case for Sarah and Matt Packwood-Hollings. Sarah and Matt are the founders of Alchymia Distillery, producing beautiful small batch handcrafted gin and single malt whisky on the rugged north-west coast of Tasmania.  The duo are the ultimate example of the power of two in action, merging their unique skills together to become a force in business and life.  And as you'll hear, property investment has been an enabler that has helped them fuel and invest in their life passion.  15 years ago Sarah and Matt moved to Australia from the UK and lived in the McLaren Vale region of South Australia, working in corporate roles until they decided to jump off the corporate bus and look for a business they could run together. As lovers of good produce, they found their way to whisky and gin.  The journey to find the 'right spot' to launch their distillery took four years, but they eventually landed at Table Cape in Tasm
