Analysis paralysis is real.

Many investors dive into the property market with high hopes but find themselves unable to make a move.

Often, it’s because of the sheer amount of info out there that’s making them afraid to take a single step.

That’s why in this episode of the Dashdot Insider Podcast, we’re chatting with David Villaume to help you get rid of analysis paralysis. David is one of our senior property advisors who’s got extensive experience helping clients navigate the complex — and sometimes intimidating — world of real estate. 

Since joining Dashdot in early 2023, David has been a key figure in guiding property investors through strategic planning, personalised goal setting, and crafting tailored investment paths. His hands-on approach takes the anxiety out of making that first step into building a thriving investment portfolio.

So if you’re ready to gain some valuable insights into how to overcome your fears, set achievable goals, and build a successful property portfolio, this episode is for you!

NEWS: The Investor Lab is back & LIVE in 2025

Is flipping properties the secret to building wealth?

Or is the buy-and-hold strategy the key to long-term success?

Mathew Russo thinks he has the answer.

A seasoned builder turned property investor, Mat started with renovations and flips, leveraging his construction background to chase big profits.

The returns were rewarding, but the 24-hour workdays and constant hustle?

Not so much.

When their family grew, Mat and his wife knew they had to shift gears.

With Dashdot’s help, they adopted a buy-and-hold strategy, securing a property in Bunbury, WA, that gained over $100K in equity within a year. 

Now, Mat’s growing his portfolio while balancing family dinners, running a business, and keeping his sanity intact.

So, if you’ve been wondering whether flipping or holding is the better path to financial freedom, Mat’s hard-earned insights are a must-hear.

A Tradie’s Journey: From Property Flipping to Holding for Long-Term Gains | #286

What do you think is the best age to enter property investing?

Is it 20? 30?

What about your 40s? Would you consider it too late?

Tony Wilkinson thought so, too… at first.

You see, Tony experienced major setbacks in his property investing journey…

But he decided to give it another try after turning 40.

And that became one of the best decisions of his life.

In this episode of the Dashdot Insider Podcast, Tony shared how he leveraged his experience, skills, and Dashdot’s Dashboard tool to identify high-growth areas. He used metrics relating to infrastructure projects, demand-supply ratios, industry diversity and more. 

He also discussed the pros and cons of a quick renovation flip… and how he transformed his Townsville property with a bit of elbow grease and strategic upgrades.

So, if you’ve been sitting on the sidelines and unsure about getting in or reentering the property market… listen to Tony to get the motivation you need to dive in.
