Today we speak to Sam Gordon, founder of Australian Property Scout, and host of two podcasts: Scouting Australia and The Top 1%.While the popular narrative may be that Australian property only goes up, property moves in cycles and different parts of Australia move through the cycle at different times. Right now, Sydney is flat, Melbourne is falling, while Adelaide, Brisbane and Perth are enjoying double-digit growth. But what are the signs that these days of double-digit growth may be over - that is the question we put to Sam. We then discuss Sam's experience renovating properties. The good, the bad, the ugly, we learn form Sam's experiences. What can you do yourself, where should you get professional help, and what offers the most bang for your buck? Tune in to find out. —------This episode has been sponsored by Australian Property Scout.
