Show Notes
We love a property investor story!
Especially stories that include hard work, dedicated, ups, downs and end up with the person owning a Ferrari! Property isn’t an easy game, it takes years to compound but when done right it can yield some amazing results.
Join us tonight 7:30pm as Melissa Morgan picks her property story over 15+ years.
An expert property manager that started with buy and hold, cracked onto renovating, turned developer and now runs a property Management business.
We’re excited for this one. Who is joining?
Topics we’ll be talking about include:
- The Deal Selection Process – We’ll unpack the steps and processes this investor took to use property as her vehicle. This one is bound to be juicy, insightful and actionable!
- How she evolved from renovating to developing, including the lessons and insights (will be helpful for investors at all levels)
- The State of the Inner City Sydney Property Market, from a Property Manager’s Perspective (including what is happening with rents and asset types)
