Tune in to hear:
✔️ The headline housing policies from both Labor and the Coalition
✔️ The larger economic forces at play — supply, demand, and what’s really driving this "housing crisis"
✔️ What it would actually take to fix Australia's housing affordability issues.

It’s a question many Australians are quietly asking themselves: “Is it too late for me to buy property?”

In this TPC Gold snippet, Ben and Bryce respond to a heartfelt listener question from Luke—who, at 46, is still renting with his wife and two teenage kids.

With $80k in savings and a growing concern about renting into retirement, Luke wants to know if it’s worth taking on a $700K mortgage at this stage of life, or if it’s simply too late to start the property journey?

Folks, one of the most common pieces of feedback we receive on the podcast is, “I wish I’d found you guys sooner.”

The problem they're facing now? They’ve got the correct knowledge BUT they’ve built what we call a Frankenstein Portfolio.

We’re talking about an impressive portfolio that looks great on the surface but, in reality, has very little growth.

So how does it happen?
✅ What are the most common traps that lead investors to this point?
✅ Why do so many end up here — and more importantly…
✅ How can you rebuild your portfolio before it’s too late?

It’s an episode for those who started without a plan or without a clear cohesion of steps but want to turn it all around because, folks, it’s NEVER too late to start again.

Tune in now!

P.S. Feeling worn down by headlines, tenant challenges or worn down by mates who don't get it? Listen to Bryce’s Mindset Minute for some quick wisdom to get you through these times.
