    In this episode of Moves to Momentum, Jason sits down again with Christian Gilmour to unpack what it really takes to build a serious property portfolio 🏡🚀

    This is not just a chat about buying more property.

    It is a real conversation about fear, strategy, market uncertainty, passive income, compounding, family, lifestyle and the decisions that shape your future.

    We cover:

    • Why uncertainty is normal in every market 📉📈
    • Why affordable property can reduce risk and create more options 🏡
    • How Christian thinks about residential, commercial, cash buffers and shares 💰
    • Why your first property is usually the hardest 😬
    • How couples can get on the same page before investing 👩‍❤️‍👨
    • The difference between making money and keeping it 🧠
    • Why your goal needs to be deeper than “I want $100k passive income” 🎯
    • How property can help you build freedom, choice and control 🔑

    If you are a family, professional or business owner sitting on equity, savings or strong income but you are unsure what the next move should be, this episode will help you think clearer.

    Because property investing is not about buying random assets.

    It is about building the portfolio that buys your future 🚀

  • 5+ Properties 🏠, 2 Kids & a Day Job | How Chris & Tina Built Their Portfolio While Living Their Life 🌏💰
    May 11 2026

    Send us Fan Mail

    Most people think you have to choose between building wealth and living your life. Chris & Tina Connolly never bought into that.

    In this episode of Moves to Momentum, we unpack the story of a couple who moved across the world, started a family, climbed the corporate ladder — and built an 8 property portfolio while doing all of it.

    Their story of moving to America with properties back home, building a family, and turning a career setback into momentum for their property portfolio.

    We unpack:

    ✈️ What living in America taught them about money, risk and backing yourself from the other side of the world

    🏡 How they pulled off buying 2 properties one day apart using a 10% deposit with zero LMI

    📈 The overlooked pockets quietly delivering 40-50% growth that most Sydney investors walk straight past

    🏦 How 17 years inside one of the world's biggest banks shaped a sharp approach to property decisions

    🔄 Why they walked away from their original portfolio and what they did with the equity instead

    👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 How a redundancy after 17 years became the unexpected spark that changed everything

    🧠 The decision making framework Chris brought back from the US that lets him move fast without second guessing

    🏠 Why they refused to sell the family home — and why that was never actually the wrong call

    This episode is for anyone who:

    ✅ Has been told they need to sacrifice the life they love to get ahead financially

    ✅ Feels like they've missed the window or are too far behind to catch up

    ✅ Wants to see what a portfolio built around real life — kids, travel, career and all — actually looks like

    ✅ Is ready to stop waiting for the perfect moment and start moving with what they have

    The biggest mistake most people make?

    Mistaking stillness for safety.

    As Chris puts it — you'll look back on the things you didn't do far more than the ones you did. The equity doesn't wait. The market doesn't pause. And the time with your kids? That goes fastest of all.

    If you're ready to build a portfolio that funds the life you actually want — not the one you settled for — this episode is for you.

    In this episode of Moves to Momentum, we break down the exact mindset shift that changed everything…

    From reading The Barefoot Investor at 14 years old and learning compound interest, to buying his first investment property in Western Australia and making over $300K in equity on his first deal.

    We unpack:

    🏡 How he bought his first property in Huntingdale, WA for $450K and sold it for $750K
    📈 Why compound interest at 14 changed his entire life
    💰 How working 2 jobs helped him fast-track his portfolio
    🧠 The exact 3-step checklist he uses to assess every property deal
    🏦 Why structuring debt correctly is just as important as buying well
    🔥 The truth about trusts, borrowing capacity, and why most investors get stuck
    🇦🇺 His honest view on the Australian property market right now
    🚀 Why most people delay investing — and how to break that cycle early

    This episode is for anyone who:

    ✔ Feels like property is too far away
    ✔ Wants to build wealth without waiting until their late 30s
    ✔ Is trying to balance lifestyle, investing, and getting ahead
    ✔ Wants a real strategy instead of BBQ advice from mates and family

    The biggest mistake most people make?

    Waiting too long.

    As Harley says — time in the market beats almost everything.

    If you're serious about building the portfolio that buys your future, this episode is for you.

    • 📈 The math behind retiring early: how much you need to save, how long it takes, and why property beats index funds for speed
