In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Liam Garman sits down with Kev Tran from Kev Tran Group to discuss how Millennial and Gen Z investors can navigate the Victorian property market.
Tran said that despite softer rental trends, Victoria offers strong opportunities for those who research at the suburb and street level.
He highlights population growth in Melbourne and regional hubs like Geelong and Ballarat as drivers of long-term housing demand.
Construction undersupply and tight rental vacancies signal a resilient market, creating opportunities for strategic investors.
Tran advises adopting a borderless approach by exploring interstate and regional markets to diversify portfolios.
He also emphasises the importance of growing income, leveraging data, and using expert advice to enhance investment potential.
Strategies such as rentvesting and prioritising high-quality assets can help young investors build sustainable wealth.

In this episode of The Property Nerds podcast, host Arjun Paliwal, founder of InvestorKit, speaks with professional netball player Paige Hadley about the realities of elite sport and her move into property investment.
Hadley explains that behind the perceived prestige of professional netball lies significant sacrifice, uncertainty, and relentless commitment.
Aware that an athletic career is finite, she began prioritising long-term financial security and life beyond the court.
Encouraged by wellbeing managers, she pursued further education and explored business opportunities.
Initially daunted by the complexities of investing, Hadley credits InvestorKit for providing the guidance and expertise needed to get started.
She applied the same analytical mindset used in sports, relying on data and a trusted team to make informed decisions, such as when investing outside NSW.
Hadley also encourages women to build financial literacy and recognise that investing is possible without a high income.
As she prepares for motherhood, she says investing in property has given her financial stability and the freedom to focus on family.

In the latest episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Eva Loisance from Finni Mortgages to discuss the challenges faced by property investors in Australia's current market.
Tarrant opens by encouraging listener feedback, emphasising its importance in shaping the show's content.
The main discussion then begins, as the duo analyse the recent 25-basis-point rate hike, with Loisance providing insights into mortgage trends and how rising interest rates are affecting investment strategies.
The pair note that while the rate increase may not drastically change strategies for most investors, it could be a tipping point for some.
The episode also examines tighter lending regulations for high debt-to-income borrowers and stricter oversight of trust-based financing arrangements.
Government spending, taxation, and potential changes to capital gains discounts were highlighted as factors that could influence property prices and investor decisions.
Loisance discusses AMP Bank's cautious return to self-managed super fund (SMSF) lending, providing targeted opportunities for select investors.
The show concludes with practical advice on strategic portfolio construction, optimising cash flow, and securing better financing in a challenging market.

The OGs are back! Two years on, Simon Loo and Michael Xia return to Property Unfiltered for a no-holds-barred catch-up that pulls back the curtain on what's really working in today's property market (and what isn't).
From doubling their combined portfolios from 100 to 200-plus properties, to riding the surge in unit blocks and venturing into some controversial assets, the OGs break down the wins, the setbacks, and the real strategies behind their rapid growth.
With Xia coming off a record-breaking year writing over 1,000 loans (the highest volume in Australia), this episode is packed with sharp insights, current market realities, and forward-thinking moves every serious investor should hear.

In a recent episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, hosts Phil Tarrant and Liam Garman examine the implications of the Reserve Bank of Australia's latest interest rate hike on property investment.
Tarrant acknowledges the widespread media concern but argues that shifting economic conditions can also create opportunities for strategic investors.
Garman points out a rise in the Consumer Price Index from 3.4 per cent to 3.8 per cent, warning that inflationary pressures, driven by energy prices and housing costs, could lead to further increases.
The pair explore whether the move signals the start of a gradual upward cycle, noting that rates often follow a fluctuating "sawtooth" pattern as the RBA works to stabilise the economy.
They also highlight government spending and market liquidity as key contributors to inflation, with Garman suggesting Australia's tightening stance is unusual among major Western economies.
The discussion raises concerns about the 5 per cent deposit scheme, with both warning that it could expose first home buyers to negative equity if property values fall.
Tarrant further urges caution around the super saver scheme, stressing the importance of disciplined saving, budgeting, and living within one's means.
Ultimately, they conclude that while higher rates present challenges, informed and adaptable investors may still find opportunities in a changing market.
