🎥ABOUT THIS VIDEOBill left school at 16 with no degree, no plan, and no idea about property investing. He went to work for his dad — as a commercial beekeeper. By 29, he owns 9 investment properties across Australia, has a portfolio quietly compounding while he sleeps, and now runs his own mortgage broking and buyer's agency.In this episode, Lloyd Edge sits down with Bill to unpack the real story behind building a property portfolio from scratch — including the deal that went wrong, the broker that nearly stopped him, and the mindset shift that changed everything.They cover why most Australians are chasing the wrong goal (10 properties in 10 years), why brand new properties can be a trap, how to find a broker who actually understands investors, and why your property manager might be costing you far more than their fee.The episode ends with Deal or No Deal — three real properties from Coffs Harbor and regional NSW go under the microscope, with Lloyd and Bill calling them live.This episode gives you the unfiltered truth from someone who's lived it.---⏱️ *TIMESTAMPS:*0:00 – Bill's story: school dropout → commercial beekeeper → 9 properties2:40 – How Bill saved his first deposit working at 16 (living at home, no car upgrades)5:43 – First property: Tamworth, $390K, brand new — and why it nearly broke even after years8:22 – The lesson: brand new estates have zero scarcity (and that kills your growth)9:10 – Deal #2: Ipswich, $240K freestanding house, 6% yield — now worth $750K11:07 – Why Brisbane follows Sydney — and how Bill spotted it in 201812:45 – The checklist: freestanding, commutable, 6%+ yield, low maintenance14:48 – Deal #3: Redcliffe waterfront house + granny flat — how he stretched his budget16:32 – How Bill researches interstate — driving suburbs, checking flood maps, targeting streets18:18 – The biggest lesson from 9 deals: don't buy for what a property looks like20:23 – Renovations: the $80K Ballarat reno — what worked and what didn't21:48 – How to find a great property manager (and the one question to always ask)24:04 – Why you need a rent review every 12 months — and how to balance it38:41 – Deal 1: Coffs Harbor 3bed/1bath, $650K — massive trees, asbestos risk, no deal?42:33 – Deal 2: Coffs Harbor 4bed/3bath, $2.5M waterfront — looks incredible, but the yield...45:00 – Deal 3: Regional NSW near Wollongong, 3bed/1bath, $880K — hidden potential?48:56 – Final verdicts + key takeaways---🚨 Australia's OFFICIAL #1 best-selling property investment book of all time — Positively Geared — has just been completely revised and updated:👉 https://amzn.to/3VXfJTp🥇 Aus Property Professionals is one of Australia's most sought-after buyer advocacy agencies, with over 5,000 purchases made on behalf of clients.Book your discovery call: 👉 https://www.auspropertyprofessionals....🚨**Discover how to build generational wealth.
