In this episode of No B.S. Property Investing, the panel tackles one of the most common objections aspiring investors use, being too busy. The discussion challenges the belief that lack of time is a legitimate barrier and reframes it as a prioritisation and structure issue rather than a capacity issue.
With 2026 around the corner, the episode focuses on what investors should be doing now if they want to secure their first investment property and avoid the costly consequences of waiting.
Guests include:
- Julian Nicolitsis – Host, Head of Strategy at Ripehouse Advisory
