THE PROPERTY NERDS: From Olympian to $11m
Most people separate sport, business, and investing. But for one former Olympian, the mindset behind all three is exactly the same: discipline, execution, and relentless improvement. On The Property Nerds podcast, Arjun Paliwal sits down with former Australian Taekwondo Olympian Hayder Shkara, who has built a property portfolio worth over $8 million alongside a national legal business. Shkara shares how the habits forged in elite sport – structure, resilience, and performance under pressure – became the foundation for both his business success and property investing strategy. After competing at the Rio 2016 Olympics, he went on to foun...

HOW I MET MY BROKER: Death tax, negative gearing, and small business: Separating fact from fiction

THE PROPERTY NERDS: Protect this $10m asset
Most property investors obsess over growth and yield, but the single biggest blind spot in any property strategy has nothing to do with acquisitions – it's what happens when life suddenly forces everything to stop. On The Property Nerds Podcast, Arjun Paliwal, Jack Fouracre, Adrian Lee, and Chris Seneviratne make the case that personal insurance isn't a side conversation but one of the most critical and consistently ignored pillars of any serious property strategy. The conversation reveals a dangerous pattern as investors carry enormous debt with virtually no protection over the income that services it, leaving ev...

The budget has sparked panic, but has anything really changed yet?

Paliwal drops a bombshell: despite the widespread freakout over negative gearing and capital gains tax, almost everyone is getting it wrong, and some investors are wildly exaggerating...

THE PROPERTY NERDS: Trusts are dead?
Most investors think the budget has made new builds the obvious winner, but chasing tax incentives could leave buyers paying a premium for properties that struggle to deliver long-term growth. On The Property Nerds podcast, Arjun Paliwal from InvestorKit and Jack Fouracre from Fouracre Financial return for part two of their post-budget deep dive, examining why the government's push towards new builds may not be as straightforward as many investors believe. The pair explain that while new properties have largely escaped the proposed changes to capital gains tax and negative gearing, that doesn't automatically make...

Pre-approvals to fail mid-deal as lenders rewrite borrowing rules
While most investors have been rattled by the tax overhaul, the biggest risk right now isn't the budget itself, but how lenders are reacting to it, with pre-approvals increasingly unreliable and buyers at risk of being caught mid-deal. On The Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant speaks with Eva Loisance, principal at Finni Mortgages, about the post-budget lending shake-up and what it means for investors trying to secure finance in an increasingly unpredictable environment. Loisance explains that pre-approvals are no longer a safe assumption, with some lenders already stripping out negative gearing from servicing models...

Property Buzz: The buyer's agency shock exposing million-dollar portfolios risked on promises, not performance
Investors are reeling from the sudden liquidation of a prominent buyer's agency, but the real fallout will come from the regulatory reckoning it triggers, not just the immediate financial losses.

The pair warn that the biggest issue right now isn't just the failed business itself, but the broader rise of industry gimmicks and high-pressure sales tactics that leave everyday consumers incredibly vulnerable. <...

Property investment is being hit with fresh policy uncertainty, with proposed tax changes raising questions around leverage, rents, and long-term returns.
