S2 - E1 | Understanding cash flow when building a portfolio.

She started at 25 with one property, no clients, and no mentor.

Today Emily Wallace has a 50,000-strong following, a thriving buyer's advocacy in Melbourne, and some very strong opinions about where the property market is heading.

This episode covers three things you need to hear right now.

Melbourne is about to move: 
• Emily has been buying in Melbourne through the lockdowns, the sentiment slump, and the years every other market ran ahead of it. 
• Her take: it is a ticking time bomb.

What first home buyers actually need to know right now: 
• Emily has a rule she applies to every client before they start searching. 
• She also gets into how the federal budget is about to squeeze first home buyers and investors into the same price band and why that creates a real problem for the people it was supposed to help.

Building a brand from zero in a market that did not take you seriously: 
• The industry thought she was too young when she started. 
• Consumers had never heard of a buyer's agent under $3 million because of The Block. 
• She built an audience through education before she had a track record to sell. 
• She breaks down exactly how she did it - the strategy she used on TikTok and why her education degree turned out to be the best qualification she could have had for this industry.

S3 EP4 | Why Melbourne Is About to Move and What First Home Buyers Must Do Now with Emily Wallace

He ran 600 head of cattle on a 2.5 million acre station in the Northern Territory.Raced yachts across the Atlantic. Trained as an accountant.Then built one of Australia's most sophisticated mortgage broking operations.This is not a typical finance episode. 

Ben Robinson, Director of Flint Group, sits down with Darren to talk about what most investors never think about until it is too late and what the smartest property portfolios are doing differently right now. 

What we get into:
The unicorn client - 9 properties, all personal name, 55% LVR, no ugly ducklings. Why he is almost impossible to replicate and what most investors do wrong trying to get there.
The SMSF strategy that actually works and the one that does not. When to go residential, when to go commercial, and the fund balance you need before either makes sense. Ben gives the exact numbers.
Why your accountant and your broker need to be in the same conversation before EOFY and what happens when they are not.
The lending landscape right now. Banks are tightening. DTI limits are biting. Pre-approvals are being revised. What that means for investors who are active or about to be.
How Ben has built a 22-person team across Australia and Nepal using AI to handle what used to take three people two days and what tool he is using to do it.
The business model most brokers are running that leaves investors exposed and what a well-structured brokerage actually looks like on the inside.

This one is worth the full listen.If you have ever wondered whether your broker is actually ahead of your portfolio or just reacting to it, this episode answers that question.
