Pizza and Property

 From $10/hr Tradie to $3,000,000 at 24  How does someone in their early 20s go from earning $10 an hour to owning a million-dollar property portfolio? In this episode, Todd sits down with 25-year-old investor Justin Bonello, who’s done exactly that through grit, sacrifice, and a sharp investment mindset.   Justin shares how he built serious momentum from humble beginnings. Living frugally, saving hard, and turning those savings into his first property deal in Sydney’s northwest.   You’ll hear how Justin used smart salary negotiations, side hustles, and equity plays to scale up his portfolio, all while staying grounded and focused on the long game. His story is pure strategy and persistence!   Justin proves it’s not about age or income, it’s about mindset, discipline, and taking action. If you’re serious about building wealth through property, this chat is a must-listen!       🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!

Are High Yields and Low Prices Enough to Make It a Deal?       Is a 10% rental yield really as good as it sounds? In this episode, Todd sits down with property expert Simon Loo to break down a Cairns unit that looks like a tempting deal on paper—but turns out to be far from it.   We dive into the numbers, uncovering the hidden costs, risks, and market volatility that make this type of property more of a trap than an opportunity.   From high strata fees to financing challenges, Simon explains why some properties should be avoided no matter how good the yield appears. If you’re serious about building a strong property portfolio, this episode is a must-listen. Learn why chasing “cheap and cheerful” deals can backfire, and discover what to focus on instead for long-term success.     🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!
