In this week's episode, Sammy Gordon and Jimmy Ibrahim dive into and bust the myth that you should follow the herd when investing in property. Sammy shares stories from his recent travels in Darwin, including the infamous Goat Island, while unpacking key lessons about property investing outside mainstream trends. He reflects on his own experiences going against the grain, breaking down why blue-chip, buy-and-hold approaches might leave investors stuck and explaining the power of actively moving capital to outperform the herd. The episode not only challenges traditional investing mindsets but offers practical advice on how to assess strategies, keep velocity in your portfolio and build real wealth by ignoring outdated norms in the property market. This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to rethink their investment journey.
