496 | Don't Sell the Goose That Lays the Golden Egg

In Episode 496, we're back with a jam-packed Q&A Day! 

Discover everything you need to know before investing in Victoria, from understanding the state's "blowout budgets" to navigating the biggest risks that make buying in Melbourne a “2030 conversation.”   

We also break down why the buy-and-hold strategy still works, even for single investors with lower incomes. (After all, would you sell the goose that lays the golden egg?) 

Plus, learn why housing shouldn’t be linked to income and hear real data from a listener on his journey to a $1M passive income.   

Tune in now for a jam-packed episode! 🚀 🚀
