Most property investors dream of financial freedom… but how do you actually live off your portfolio when the time comes?
In today’s show, Brett Warren, national Director of Property at Metropole and I reveal the ‘end game’ of property investment – the steps to turn bricks and mortar into a lifestyle, how to transition from growth to cash flow, and why living off equity could be the smartest strategy of all.
Our conversation highlights that property investment is not just about acquiring properties but creating a portfolio that provides financial freedom and choices in retirement.
