In this episode, we reveal why saying NO to certain property deals is just as crucial as knowing when to say yes—especially in hot markets like Mildura, Sydney, Melbourne and Townsville. You’ll discover the hidden risks of buying the wrong property, even in booming areas. From bushfire zones and flood risks to properties near loud railway lines, we share real examples of deals our team rejected—and why.

Learn how to apply granular due diligence frameworks to avoid costly mistakes and protect your investment returns.
