But it can be a powerful tool if you are looking to build a portfolio.

And then you also have to think about managing the costs of more than one property.

So should I hold on to Mordialloc and buy my second property?

I then have two sets of rates and all of the running costs that come with two homes.

Just a couple of people that I wanted to introduce you to before I wrap up.

When I wrote Smash Davo, it was really important not only to share my story because everyone's journey is different.

So I interviewed some amazing young people who found clever ways to get into the market when it feels really impossible.

This is Lucy and Nathan.

They've got this gorgeous little place down in Loch in Gippsland.

They moved it...

from a property in Canterbury, put it on a truck and took it to Gippsland.

So they had the land and they paid about $100,000 for the house.

There's a company called Moving Views.

There's a bunch of companies that does this where you can buy properties that are going to be demolished and move them to cheaper land.

So...

They're working really hard while they're young and that's what's important to them.

They've just had a baby and you can see Bub there.

They're still finishing the reno but they're super happy with what they're achieving and very creative when they thought about how they were going to enter the market.

Another creative couple, Jacob and Brad, they bought this unbelievable barn.

It's in Heathcote, about 90 minutes out of Melbourne, just near Bendigo.
