Expat Property Portfolio
The Expat Property Podcast is a show for globally-minded expats who want to share stories, ideas, and strategies for building a life and wealth while living abroad.
Hosted by UK property investor Callum Williamson, each episode features candid conversations with fellow expats and industry experts from first-time buyers to seasoned investors. Whether it’s UK property, international real estate, or alternative investments, the focus is on practical insights and personal journeys.
But this podcast is about more than just money. We dive into the real experiences of life overseas: the culture shocks, tough decisions, unexpected wins, and the challenges of starting fresh in a new country. You’ll hear honest stories of transition, resilience, and the realities of expat life.
Whether you're actively investing or just curious to hear from others navigating life abroad, this podcast offers connection, perspective, and a sense of community from people who’ve been there.
From navigating overseas mortgages and tax rules to understanding market trends and building long-term security, it’s not just about property, it’s about creating a lifestyle and legacy on your own terms.
Subscribe now to join the conversation and hear what it really takes to thrive as an expat financially, personally, and everywhere in between.

So is this the start of a Dubai property crash, or a once in a cycle buying opportunity?
