Built a $9.2 million property portfolio in just over five years, and most of the best moves broke the rules most investors follow.
ย
ย
Todd Sloan sits down with Steven Yau to trace his journey from an underperforming Reservoir unit to a deliberate BRRRR strategy across Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane, and Mackay. Steven shares how he scaled through remote renovations, strong PM relationships, strategic purchases, and smart property structures.
ย
ย
This episode is a must-listen whether you're on your first property or your fifth. The mistakes are real, the numbers are on the table, and the mindset shift that took Steven from stalling to scaling is one most investors never make.

Victoria's state premier just resigned, and it could reshape the state's entire property market.
ย
Todd Sloan sits down with Dawn Fouhy from Future Proof Property to break down the fallout from Jacinta Allan's resignation and what a potential change in government could mean for Melbourne property. From proposed stamp duty cuts and land tax reforms to the fiscal mess left by 12 years of Labour spending, Dawn unpacks why policy uncertainty, not the party in power, is what's really holding the market back.
ย
This episode is a must watch whether you're sitting on the sidelines or eyeing an entry point in Melbourne. Head to the links below for more on where the market goes from here.
