Let's Talk Property, a podcast series with Rich Harvey.
Well, there are plenty of myths in the world littered throughout our collective psyche, often shared as fact, when in reality, they're either misleading or incorrect. For example, fortune cookies were really created in Japan and not China. But there is one misconception in the real estate industry, which I think people cling to as an absolute fact, and that is that land appreciates Buildings depreciate. And to unpack this misconception, joining us is Rich Harvey, founder and CEO of propertybuyer.com.au to discuss this in more detail. Good morning, Rich.
Good morning, Craig. Great to be with you. How are you feeling? A bit tired after last night. I think you know the reason why, though.
Yeah, tell us a little bit about this Telstra Best of Business Awards. Now, you were among 24,000 businesses across Australia that actually put their nominations in. It was whittled down to just seven, which is an amazing achievement, really. How was your night?
Yeah, look, Craig, it was a great night. It was incredible to be amongst such a calibre of other business owners. You know, there's seven categories. There's actually around, probably around about 150, 200 finalists in total. But the category that I was shortlisted in as a finalist was called Progressing Australia, which is the top category. And what they're looking for, the judges in that category is businesses that are showing strong leadership and solving a community problem that's quite pervasive throughout the economy and throughout the community. It's an incredibly rigorous and challenging business awards program. Honestly, I enter a lot of awards, as you know, and my company's won 38 awards for excellence.
But to win, if you can win the Telstra one, you've made it. Honestly, it is the hardest, most challenging. So to enter, you have to do two written submissions of about 10,000 words each. Then you have a panel interview of three people. And then if you make the cut, then you do another panel interview with three really senior people. So one from Telstra and two other independent judges. And the level of questioning they drill down to is just unbelievable. We had the final judging on Tuesday and then last night they announced the winners. But unfortunately, we didn't win. But look, I'm really proud of my team and being able to actually be called a best of business finalist in 2022.
Mate, you must be doing something right because out of 24,000 businesses just to get into the top seven categories,
Oh, thank you. It is. Look, it's a real honor to be amongst all those other businesses. And there were some great people in the room too, and some very worthy winners.
