With deep insight into the Sydney market and a national perspective, Veronica unpacks what's really happening beneath the surface of Australia's property market following the latest federal budget. While headlines suggest stability, the reality on the ground tells a very different story, one driven by falling confidence, policy uncertainty, and shifting buyer behaviour. 

In this episode of Geared for Growth, Mike Mortlock is joined by Munzurul Khan, Chairman at KHI Partners and a seasoned advisor to investors and business owners with decades of experience navigating tax policy and market cycles.

In this episode of Geared for Growth, Mike Mortlock is joined by Adrian Trimboli, Co-Founder & Director of Fresh Start Advisory. Adrian's journey into property investing didn't start with success, it started with mistakes. From buying a poorly selected apartment at 18 to experiencing multiple early setbacks, his story is one many investors can relate to but few openly share. What followed, however, was a complete shift in strategy, mindset, and execution that led to building a multi-million dollar portfolio and helping over a thousand Australians do the same. 

In this episode of Geared for Growth, Mike Mortlock is joined by Simon Pressley, Head of Property Market Research at Propertyology and one of Australia's most outspoken voices on property fundamentals.

Can a clever trust structure really give you unlimited borrowing power - or is it just another costly property myth in disguise? In this revealing episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin exposes one of the latest fads doing the rounds in property circles - the so-called SPV Trust strategy that promises “infinite borrowing capacity.” Originally featured on the Geared For Growth podcast with property data expert Mike Mortlock, this candid conversation unpacks the truth behind these “special purpose vehicles” that some spruikers are selling as a shortcut to financial freedom. Bushy and Mike pull back the curtain on the fine print - from hidden lender covenants and personal guarantees to the real-world risks that investors and brokers often overlook.

What separates a good property manager from a great one?It's not just doing the routine inspections, collecting rent, or chasing arrears. It's being able to have deeper, value-driven conversations with landlords, ones that go beyond the usual transactional touchpoints and actually speak to why they became investors in the first place.And that's exactly what this episode is all about.Many landlords buy investment properties to create financial freedom yet property managers often miss the opportunity to be a real partner in that journey. Instead of only talking about repairs or rent increases, what if you could start meaningful conversations about topics like equity growth, tax depreciation, and market trends?That's where the magic happens. In this episode, we chat with Mike Mortlock, Managing Director of MCG Quantity Surveyors, one of Australia's fastest growing QS firms. A leading expert in tax depreciation, Mike has helped thousands of investors boost their cash flow and is a regular commentator in AFR, API Magazine, and more.

He also sits on the board of the Property Investment Professionals of Australia, so he brings a wealth of insight to this conversation.“I believe they should always be leading the conversation around rent and rental movements. So you don't want the landlord to be sort of saying, oh, I've seen some data that says rents have increased by X percent. You want to be able to deliver that. And that really, I feel should be within the realm of expertise of a property manager.” -Mike Mortlock We explore:The #1 conversation most property managers are missing with landlordsHow to bring up tax depreciation even if you don't fully understand it yourselfWhat landlords actually want from their property managers The 3 triggers that tell you a landlord needs a depreciation scheduleWhy property managers should have a network of trusted experts, from insurance to financeHow to add more value and stand out from your competitors in the same suburbCreative ways to educate, retain, and impress your landlords using tools like AI, webinars, and industry partnershipsWhy deeper conversations lead to better onboarding and longer retentionKylie's Resources:Property Management Growth School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/TPM-BDMSchool Digital Marketing School: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/digitalschool That Property Mum Courses: https://www.thatpropertymum.com.au/courses/ The PM Accelerate Membership: https://courses.thatpropertymum.com.au/accelerate Book a Strategy Call with Kylie: https://calendly.com/kylie-tpm/coaching-call Kolmeo: https://kolmeo.com/ Sensor Global: https://sensorinsure.com/

Today, I look into an issue that's causing ripples across the Victorian rental market and beyond. It's the exodus of landlords. Joining me today is Mike Mortlock, Managing Director of MCG Quantity Surveyors, who recently wrote a detailed report about this. Not surprisingly, the problem isn't just confined to Victoria. In general, many property investors are getting nervous and they're selling up. I also plan to ask him about another issue that could blow up and isn't just confined to Victoria. That's the fact that many are underinsured.

Today I'm going to discuss several topics of interest for property investors with Mike Mortlock, the Managing Director of MCG Quantity Surveyors. Mike's team has recently released a report titled 'Rising Tide of Unit Rents Closes Gap with Houses in Major Capitals' that sheds light on some transformative trends and provides an understanding of the shifts in housing affordability and renter preferences. We also talk about the growing concern that the government may look at changes to negative gearing and capital gains tax before the next election and discuss the other side of the equation, about the important role property investors, play in our housing markets.

In today's show I'll discuss the complexities of Australia's housing market with my guest Mike Mortlock, the director of MCG Quantity Surveys. In our conversation today, we spoke about lots of interesting things that will give you some insights into our housing market. In particular, we explore a disturbing “tall poppy syndrome” narrative that's taken place over the last little while. It puts property investors in the role of villains who are against the Australian dream of home ownership, and we believe this is an unfair and inaccurate portrayal. We explain why that's inaccurate and tell politicians it's time to stop picking on property investors.  We also talk about the rental crisis, what's ahead for our property markets, and Mike's views on what will happen with AI and the property markets.
