  • Ep 298: Regional vs Capital Debate - with Steve Ash, Arjun Paliwal, & Todd Sloan
    Jun 28 2025
    Regional vs Capital Debate Is it better to invest in regional markets or stick with the tried-and-true capital cities? In this episode, Todd Sloan moderates a fiery debate between two heavyweight investors: Arjun Paliwal (with a $17M portfolio) and Steve Ash (with $10M in property). The big question is on the table—and both sides come out swinging. Arjun makes a strong case for regional markets, pointing to affordability, yields, and population share. Meanwhile, Steve champions capital cities, backed by long-term performance data and greater stability. Tune in as Todd puts forward four key statements—two for each side—and lets the sparks fly. From liquidity and market cycles to investor trends and economic fundamentals, this episode is packed with sharp insights and real-world experience. Whether you’re team regional or team capital city, you’ll walk away better informed for your next property move. 🍕🏠 We want to hear your investor story!

  • Weekly Slice 239: Diggers Rest $450K to $600K: Is it a NO or is it a GO? Listeners Choice Melbourne - with Junge Ma & Todd Sloan
    Jun 24 2025
    Diggers Rest $450K to $600K: Is it a NO or is it a GO? Listeners Choice Melbourne Every month, we ask our audience to send in a suburb that they'd like analysed. InvestorKit's senior research analyst Junge Ma goes into every detail on buying your first home in Melbourne’s outer suburbs. In this episode, Junge answers a question from Marcus about whether Diggers Rest is a good option for him to buy his first home, given his budget of $450,000 to $600,000, and he is particularly interested in ensuring that he is planting the seed somewhere with strong potential for capital growth. Junge Ma breaks down the latest data on population growth, construction activity, and rental yields in the Melton LGA, highlighting key factors like high inventory levels, rising vacancy rates, and short-term capital growth potential. They discuss what this means for buyers looking for affordability versus investors chasing strong returns and why Diggers Rest’s 40 km distance from Melbourne CBD plays a role in its market dynamics. Todd and Junge wrap up with practical insights for anyone weighing up Diggers Rest as their next property move—whether you’re a first home buyer wanting value for money or an investor seeking long-term growth.
