In this episode of Investing for Doctors, we welcome back Rich Harvey, CEO and Founder of PROPERTYBUYER to take the conversation beyond buy and hold and into the value-add strategies most doctors never hear about. Building on our previous discussion around leverage and portfolio structure, we unpack why many high-income professionals stop too early with property, not because of risk tolerance or lack of opportunity, but because they are unclear on what is realistically possible without becoming a full-time developer.
Rich walks through practical, lower-risk ways doctors can manufacture equity and accelerate passive income, including cosmetic renovations, granny flats, knock-down rebuilds, and passive development strategies. We also explore realistic return benchmarks, risks to avoid, hidden tax considerations, and how doctors can scale safely when time is limited and managing tradies or approvals is not an option. This episode is designed for doctors who already own property and want a clearer framework for what comes next, without chasing hype or overcomplicating their strategy.
