Is Melbourne's Growth Dead in 2026?      Is Melbourne already at its peak, or are investors completely missing where the real growth is happening? In this episode, Todd Sloan chats with Dawn Fouhy from Future Proof Property Advisory to unpack what's really going on beneath the surface of Melbourne's property market and why most people are looking in the wrong places.   Dawn breaks down why Melbourne should never be treated as one single market. From the surprising rise of suburbs like Frankston North and Carrum Downs to the impact of infrastructure and affordability, she explains where growth is actually occurring and why interest rates haven't shut the door on opportunity just yet.   If you want to understand where Melbourne could be heading next and how to position yourself before the next wave hits, this episode gives you the framework to think differently and invest with clarity.      

On the Ground: Is Melbourne's East Undervalued?     What do the streets actually tell you that the data can't? In this On the Ground episode, Todd jumps in the car with Abdullah Nouh, founder of Mecca Property Group, and drives through Melbourne's east to find out whether this suburb is genuinely undervalued or just misunderstood.   As they drive, Abdullah breaks down what he's seeing in real time and why a suburb that's only averaged 4.5% growth over the last decade might actually be the most compelling signal in the current market. He also walks Todd through a recently settled off market deal and explains how buyers can manufacture yield in an area most investors have written off.   This episode is a street level masterclass in reading a suburb before the headlines catch up.

The 2026–27 Federal Budget dropped May 12... and within 24 hours, accountant Jeremy Iannuzzelli, buyer's agent Simon Loo, and mortgage broker Morgan Bushell were live with host Todd Sloan to break it down in real time.   Negative gearing limited to new builds. CGT discount replaced with cost based indexation and a 30% minimum tax. A split calculation system for anyone who holds past 1 July 2027. And none of it has cleared the Senate yet, so what should you actually do right now?   The panel cuts through what these changes mean for your borrowing power, which structures are now in the crosshairs, and why the window before 1 July 2027 could matter more than most investors realise. Simon makes the case for affordable housing in major capitals as the most resilient play. Jeremy explains why companies and SMSFs are becoming the go to investment vehicles. Morgan breaks down the lending reality, and it's not the doomsday scenario you may have seen in the headlines.   The rules have shifted. The fundamentals haven't. Watch before you make your next move.    

From Startup to Mortgage Free in Just 18 Months     What if you could build a business from scratch, sell it for $700,000, and be mortgage-free...all within 18 months?   What if the thing that changed your financial life forever started with a single phone call you almost ignored? Todd is joined by Shaun Craike, founder of The Buyers Co., who did something most people only talk about, built a business from scratch, sold it for $700,000, and paid off his home. All in 18 months.   In this episode, Shaun pulls back the curtain on exactly how it happened, from the accidental opportunity that started it all to the $250,000 tax mistake he nearly made on the sale to why his properties still cash flow heavily today with just a few hours of work per week.   If you've ever wondered whether real financial freedom is still achievable in Australia right now, this episode is worth your time.

Interest Rate Rise! 0.25% Borrowing change… what does this mean for us?     What happens when the Reserve Bank keeps raising interest rates before it even knows if the last rise worked?   General manager, mortgage broker and financial planner, Max Phelps, joins Todd to break down the RBA's latest rate rise and why the data lag between policy decisions and real world impact means we could already be in overcorrection territory. They unpack how borrowing power has quietly collapsed over the past few years, what that means for Sydney's property market, and why savvy investors are shifting their focus towards high yield, affordable segments where competition is thinning and opportunity is quietly building.   If you're trying to figure out whether now is still a smart time to buy and where this episode gives you the framework to think it through clearly.    

We Break Down 6 Suburbs in Geelong On the Ground     Is Geelong really the property goldmine everyone says it is or does it depend entirely on where you buy?   In this episode, Dawn Fouhy of Future Proof Property and Todd Sloan hit the streets of Geelong for a raw, unfiltered ground level tour across six suburbs. Dawn breaks down why suburb wide data can be dangerously misleading, revealing the stark contrasts between established pockets and fringe developments, high growth potential and high risk headaches, and where savvy investors are finding genuine value in units and houses alike.   From a retirement village mistaken for social housing to a stripped duplex in one of Geelong's most notorious streets, the episode cuts through the noise with real sales data, and long term growth potential in a city projected to grow from 306,000 to 440,000 people by 2046.   If you're considering Geelong as your next investment destination, or you've already bought there, this episode will sharpen your thinking, challenge your assumptions, and help you make smarter decisions about which pockets to target and which to avoid.     Download the full free booklet here

And when do the numbers just not add up?   Todd Sloan walks through a property in Geelong with three experts, Rob Flux, Oliver Jackson, and Hayden Warren and three very different strategies. Oliver unpacks why a cosmetic reno blows out from $50,000 to over $165,000 once re-stumping, asbestos removal, and rewiring are factored in. Rob runs his Rapid Elimination Method across the single site and the combined double block before landing on his favourite conclusion: just because it's developable doesn't mean it's profitable. Hayden rounds it out with his one-to-two lot subdivision strategy, showing how tight site access and a busy road are enough to make this one a pass.   A real deal, three expert frameworks, and a masterclass in due diligence.

Fast $100K Equity uplift for just $9K     What if adding a single wall could increase your property's value by six figures?   In this episode, Todd Sloan sits down with Oliver Cheung, Founder and Director of Insighto, to discuss a simple yet powerful strategy property investors can use to add value: creating an extra bedroom by adding walls. Rather than taking on expensive renovations like kitchens or bathrooms, this approach focuses on identifying properties where a small layout change can significantly improve both value and rental appeal.   They talk about how to identify the right properties, why understanding the local market matters, and how to spot areas where there is a strong price gap between different bedroom configurations.   They also explore a real example where a relatively small renovation cost resulted in a substantial equity uplift and rental increase.
