Lets give a big Pond welcome to @Jonah Pitkin . I had the pleasure of meeting Jonah in person at the local jewelry shop and he's on a mission to utilise his previous working experience in real estate to build his investment portfolio. He’s young and hungry (in the good way), and properly passionate about getting into investing - not just “one day” energy… more like “let’s build something real” energy. Jonah, stoked you’re here. 🐸

Without trying harder... Switching from monthly to weekly can shave interest and even years off your loan.” Banks love you to repay monthly because your balance stays higher for longer, that means the Bank makes more money off you. Weekly payments make your money hit the loan sooner - this means your ultimately pay less in interest. It’s the same repayment amounts… just smarter timing. https://moneysmart.gov.au/home-loans/mortgage-calculator

Our govt changes with the 'help to buy ' scheme are very generous. If you want detailed information, please DM me directly ....and I'll put you in touch with the mortgage brokers who can handle this

I dropped my upcoming book Property Power (publishing later this year) into NotebookLM AI to see how it would summarise my real-estate investing process — specifically the steps I used to build financial freedom through property. What surprised me wasn’t just what it pulled out (it really simplified what I did)… but what questions it raised. So I’m curious: If you were learning this process for the first time, what would you want clarified, challenged, or explored more deeply? Or what’s the one part of property investing that still feels unclear or overwhelming for you? Drop your thoughts below — I’m genuinely interested in what stands out to you.

Here's what I would do as my first NEXT step... and remember its always just ONE step at a time 🐸 ❤️
