    Get Invested: When to buy or build? With Rob Flux and Bushy Martin

    Is it smarter to buy property or build it in today’s market? The answer depends less on the headlines and more on which lane you should be running in right now.

    In this re-released 'Sunday Session' conversation, Bushy Martin sits down with good mate Rob Flux from the Property Developer Network for a friendly but insightful sparring match: invest vs develop, buy vs build.

    Rob flies the flag for developers. Bushy holds the investor line. Together, they unpack when each strategy works, when it doesn’t, and how to work out where you fit at this stage of the property cycle.

    You’ll hear the real pros and cons of investing versus development, how the numbers shift as build costs and interest rates move, and a practical Strategy GPS (or Nonagon) you can use to assess your own situation — without emotion or hype.

    This episode is especially relevant right now, as parts of the market reach a point where building new or doing small development can stack up just as well — or better — than buying existing property on cost and cashflow.

    In this episode, Bushy and Rob cover:

    • Why investing and developing are two completely different games

    • How buy-and-hold uses time and compounding, while development manufactures equity through process and execution

    • When build costs and interest rates tilt the equation toward development

    • How to use the Strategy GPS / Nonagon to choose between investing, developing — or a hybrid of both

    • Why most time-poor Aussies are better off building strong investment foundations first

    • How community, education and experienced support (like Property Developer Network and Property Hub) dramatically reduce mistakes and accelerate progress

    Whether you’re an experienced investor wondering if it’s time to step into development — or just trying to decide which lane makes sense for your life right now — this episode will help you think strategically, not emotionally, about your next move.

    Get Invested: Property boom or blocked drain? Bushy breaks down 2025

    If you think 2025 was a property boom, you’ve been lied to.

    Prices did rise — but not because Australia suddenly got richer, smarter or more confident. In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin dismantles the popular boom narrative and explains why 2025 was really a policy-driven bottleneck that quietly rewarded a small group of prepared investors — while leaving many others exposed.

    Bushy breaks down how record-low listings, decade-low construction, surging migration and government-engineered price bands combined to create intense pressure in very specific parts of the market. The result? Some Australians made a year’s wage in equity without fanfare, while others chased hotspots, followed influencers, and overpaid for the wrong property in the wrong location — often without realising it yet.

    In this solo episode, Bushy reveals the three real forces that pushed prices higher even as affordability hit rock bottom, why 2025 was never an “equal boom”, and how national policy settings funnelled buyers into the same narrow price band — creating artificial competition in so-called “affordable” markets.

    He also revisits his proven 3 I’s (Infrastructure, Incomes, Industry) and 3 P’s (People, Property, Position) framework, showing why fundamentals — not FOMO — explained where growth actually occurred. Most importantly, Bushy outlines why strategy must come before location, and why borderless analysis paired with strong local execution is the smarter way to invest.

    Stick with Bushy to the end and you’ll walk away with a clear, practical three-step checklist you can use before buying anything in 2026 — because next year isn’t about prediction, it’s about positioning.

    This episode is essential listening for investors who want to live by design, not by default.

    Get Invested: Terry Ryder on the hunt for real growth and why property values rise

    Australian property investors are being misled by headlines - here’s why location, not media noise, will determine who wins in 2025.

    In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin sits down with long-time favourite and one of Australia’s most respected property research analysts, Terry Ryder, founder of Hotspotting and author of Why Property Values Rise. Together they cut through the noise to reveal what really drives sustainable property growth - and why most investors never build the portfolio they dream of.

    Terry unpacks why 70–80% of value growth comes down to local area selection, not the property itself, and why treating Australia as “one market” is lazy and dangerous. He explains how $900B+ of infrastructure is reshaping jobs, incomes and housing demand across thousands of micro-markets - and why forward-looking indicators matter far more than backward-looking stats.

    From the rise of apartments and overlooked suburbs, to the spectacular failure of doom-and-gloom forecasts, Bushy and Terry give investors a practical GPS for choosing outperforming locations using Terry’s EMPIRICAL formula alongside Bushy’s 3I’s & 3P’s.

    If you’re serious about building a lifestyle-funding portfolio - not just a random collection of properties - this conversation is essential listening.

    Get Invested: Bushy's housing reality check - the 7 signals every investor must understand now

    Australian property investors are selling up in record numbers – and the 2025 PIPA Investor Survey finally reveals why. 

    In this solo episode, Bushy Martin breaks down the truth behind the rental crisis and what it really means for everyday Australians trying to build wealth.

    Bushy unpacks the biggest shifts in this year’s PIPA survey, including:

    • Record investor exits (16% sold in the last year) and why most of those properties left the rental market.

    • Costs rising 10–40% while 65% of investors are passing on less than 10% to tenants.

    • Major fear triggers like negative gearing reform, CGT changes, land tax hikes and compliance blowouts.

    • State-level pain, with QLD and VIC hit hardest.

    • A surprising silver lining — nearly 60% of investors still believe it’s a good time to buy.

    He then zooms out to reveal the bigger truth most commentators are missing:

    You don’t fix a shortage by shrinking the supply. Investor exits mean fewer rentals, higher rents and more pressure on the people who can least afford it.

    Bushy also shares his foresight on what’s coming next — from the likely intensification of the rental crunch to interest rate expectations and why contrarian investors may quietly win the next cycle.

    Finally, he gives you his clear GPS for what to do now:

    • Strengthen emotional resilience and think long-term

    • Stress-test your buffers and compliance load

    • Avoid hype, focus on fundamentals and buy where true scarcity exists

    Get Invested - Part 2: Simon Lacey on patience, purpose and property over get-rich gimmicks

    In a market full of shortcuts, hype, and “get-rich-by-Friday” noise, the real advantage belongs to investors who master the art of shifting gears — between growth and cashflow, and between working hard and actually living well.

    In Part 2 of Bushy’s deep-dive with Simon Lacey, an investor with 26 properties to his name, we peel back the curtain on what sustainable, purpose-driven property investing really looks like. Simon shares how he refined his entire “property engine” through co-living, commercial lending, and building a people-first buyer’s agency — all while keeping a long-term, fundamentals-first mindset.

    This is an episode for investors who want to resist the lure of the quick win, avoid the traps of short-term thinking, and instead build wealth the way it’s always been built: with clarity, consistency, and calm execution.

    Bushy and Simon dig into:

    • How to shift gears between growth and cashflow without stalling your strategy

    • Why the fundamentals — not the fads — deliver real financial freedom

    • How co-living and commercial lending shaped Simon’s investment approach

    • The importance of a people-first lens when building a property business

    • Why persistence, patience and purpose always pay off in the long run

    If you’re ready to tune out the gimmicks and get serious about building a balanced life and a bulletproof portfolio, this episode will show you exactly what it takes.

    Are you ready? Then let’s get invested.

    Get Invested - Part 1: Simon Lacey on turning grit, graft and guts into a 26 property powerhouse

    Discover how Simon Lacey built a powerhouse 26-property portfolio generating $900k a year - and the strategic lessons every Australian investor can use to live by design.

    What does it really take to go from a single investment to a 26-property portfolio generating almost a million dollars in rental income? In this episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin sits down with property investor and buyer’s agent Simon Lacey, who breaks down the mindset, strategy and long-game grit behind one of the most impressive portfolios in the country.

    Bushy kicks things off by reminding us that choosing the right investment strategy and tactical approach isn’t easy - and there’s no one-size-fits-all solution. That’s why Simon’s journey is so valuable. From a light-bulb moment at age 15 to buying his first property at just 20, Simon has built - alongside his wife Christie - a diversified, multi-state portfolio of 26 properties, spanning active developments through to positive cash flow holdings. Today, their investments generate $900,000 in annual rent and are tracking towards the magic million.

    Their success didn’t just change their lives - it became the foundation for the Lacey Elite Buyers Agency, where they now help everyday Australians achieve the same clarity, confidence and sustainable success.

    In this episode, you’ll learn:

    • The critical mindset shifts that fuelled Simon’s early momentum

    • How he blended development, renovation and cash-flow plays to fast-track growth

    • Why diversifying across states supercharged portfolio performance

    • Practical insights into crafting your own long-term, sustainable investment strategy

    • The story behind Lacey Elite Buyers Agency and how Simon and Christie now help others live by design

    If you’re an aspiring or active investor seeking guidance, inspiration and proven principles, Simon’s story will give you the clarity and confidence to refine your own investment path.

    Get Invested: Bushy Martin on same as ever success - why truth trumps trendy tactics in property

    Bushy Martin helps you reset your stance for success - by switching your focus from what might change to what never changes.

    Markets are messy, media is manic, and fads are fickle. Yet amid all the noise, the investors who win are those anchored to the fundamentals that always hold true. Bushy unpacks how to build a property plan that compounds over time, regardless of market moods or media cycles.

    With over four decades and $4B+ in property finance experience, Bushy explains why people don’t change—and how smart investors can out-structure their emotions, leverage finance as the true market mover, and buy before the crowd turns fundamentals into “hot spots.”

    Whether you’re an aspiring or seasoned investor, this episode will help you stop reacting to headlines and start compounding the principles that always deliver.

    Key Takeaways

    • Stop reacting to headlines; start compounding fundamentals.

    • People don’t change—so design your plan to out-structure your emotions.

    • Future growth hides in the 3 I’s & 3 P’s; medians and averages mask the real gems.

    • Finance is the lever: access to credit moves markets more than markets move themselves.

    • Plan for the worst, manage for the best - buffers buy time, and time lets compounding win.

    • Be the contrarian: buy before the pied pipers turn fundamentals into ‘hot spots.’

    If you don't know Bushy, he is one of Australia’s most trusted property finance strategists, host of the award-winning Get Invested podcast, and author of The Freedom Formula. Over 40 years and $4B+ in finance experience, Bushy helps everyday Aussies design a lifestyle by choice - using property the right way, with the right structure, and the right team. His mission: to turn confusion into clarity, and reaction into compounding.

    • How a few high-performing properties can replace your income

    • The importance of buffers, loan structures, and sleep-at-night strategies

    • How to avoid the FOMO traps that sabotage long-term growth

    • The mindset shift from collecting keys to creating freedom

    If you’ve ever wondered whether it’s time to stop chasing more and start living better, this episode will show you how to build a smaller, smarter portfolio that buys you a big life - one that’s truly lived by design.

    Get Invested: Bushy Martin on Trust traps - the shortcut that could sink investors

    Can a clever trust structure really give you unlimited borrowing power - or is it just another costly property myth in disguise?

    In this revealing episode of Get Invested, Bushy Martin exposes one of the latest fads doing the rounds in property circles - the so-called SPV Trust strategy that promises “infinite borrowing capacity.”

    Originally featured on the Geared For Growth podcast with property data expert Mike Mortlock, this candid conversation unpacks the truth behind these “special purpose vehicles” that some spruikers are selling as a shortcut to financial freedom.

    Bushy and Mike pull back the curtain on the fine print - from hidden lender covenants and personal guarantees to the real-world risks that investors and brokers often overlook. Together, they reveal why “unlimited borrowing” is usually a misleading myth dressed up in a nice suit and why real freedom in property is built on strategy, patience, and good sense, not loopholes and shortcuts.

    Expect honest insights, a few laughs, and practical wisdom to help you build wealth that lasts longer than the latest financial trend.

    Get Invested: Housing values to triple? How history informs our property future with Simon Pressley

    Is population growth really driving property prices? Tune in for Simon Pressley’s timeless insights from 80 years of Australian property cycles.

    Do interest rates really move the market, or is that another investor myth?

    In this Get Invested rewind, host Bushy Martin reopens the Rolled-Gold Property Hub Vault to revisit one of the most popular and timeless interviews from over a thousand episodes.

    This week, Bushy is joined by Simon Pressley — Australia’s leading property analyst, Real Estate Institute of Australia Hall of Fame inductee, and Director of Propertyology — to unpack more than 80 years of Australian property history and reveal the principles that still hold true today.

    Simon, who Bushy calls the “Warren Buffett of Australian property,” dives deep into the real drivers of long-term performance, helping investors cut through the noise of interest rates, migration headlines, and short-term hype.

    Together, they explore:

    • Which so-called “world-ending” events actually shifted property markets — and which just made headlines

    • How rent controls have affected supply (and why history might be repeating itself)

    • The property fundamentals that haven’t changed in eight decades — and what’s likely to happen next

    If you want to build wealth by design and invest with clarity — not clickbait — this classic conversation will sharpen your understanding of what really moves Australian property.

    🎧 Listen now and future-proof your property strategy.
