Q&A: Sell My Unit to Buy a House? Strata Beware? Selling Tenanted? Plus Cockburn Central Deep Dive

If you've ever wondered whether it's time to sell your unit and trade up to a house, or how strata fees might affect your long-term returns, you're in the right place.

Today, I’m tackling the hottest questions coming through our Perth Property Investment Facebook group — and these aren’t just casual curiosities, they’re real scenarios from property owners making big decisions.

We’ll cover smart strategies for selling tenanted properties, when buying a unit still stacks up, and what to know before switching to a house. Plus, I’ll take you on a deep dive of Cockburn Central for a look at how it's been performing and the growth potential ahead, which will also give you a lot of insight into what we look for in a suburb. 

Whether you're just starting or refining your portfolio, this episode will give you insights you can use. Let’s go inside.
