  • Is buying a house worth it?
    Nov 8 2021
    In the final episode of this series, Nicole talks to Kevin, the agent who sold her first property. Together they reflect on the process. We also hear the story of Heidi Knowles, an Indigenous woman who recovered from drug addiction and was motivated to buy her own home so that she’d have a secure place for herself, and her children, to live well into the future. | Finally, Nicole explains where she is now and introduces her next book, The Ethical Investor which is now available for pre-order: https://www.blackincbooks.com.au/books/ethical-investor | We hope this series has provided the inspiration and education you need to believe buying your own property is achievable.

  • The rise of rentvesting
    Nov 1 2021
    We know entering the property market is getting harder all the time. But, could you afford to crack the market with an entry level investment without giving up the area that you want or need to live in? That’s what this episode’s guests have done. | First, we’ll speak with Tash Etschmann, who’s in her early 20s and bought an investment property in Perth that’s paid in full by her tenants. This enables her to travel around Australia. You can find Tash on instagram @tashinvests. | We’ll also hear from Brad McLennan. Brad and his partner Jacob bought a barn in regional Victoria (yes, an actual barn) and turned it into a beautiful holiday accommodation. They’ve since gone on to buy another property which is also available to guests. In the meantime, they work and live in Melbourne. Their properties are @thebarnheathcote and @thestonehousenagambie. | Find Nicole on Instagram: @nicolehaddow and @smashedavocadoproperty | We’re talking about property in this podcast and would like to acknowledge that this series is recorded on the traditional lands of the Wadawurrung and Dja Dja Wurrung Peoples.

    Oct 25 2021
    Going off-the-grid sounds like a simple, cheaper way to live. There’s no doubt it’s good for the environment, but how easy is it? In this episode we’ll hear from zero-waste crusader Joost Bakker (Instagram: @joostbakker), creator of the Future Food System (Insta: @futurefoodsystem), a house that generates its own energy and food using a closed loop system. | Plumber Aimee Stanton (@aimeekatestanton) also joins us to explain what’s involved in building tiny houses and what you’ll need to consider if you want to live in a small home off-grid. You can find her tiny home business on Instagram (@tiny.stays) | Find Nicole on Instagram: @nicolehaddow and @smashedavocadoproperty | We’re talking about property in this podcast and would like to acknowledge that this series is recorded on the traditional lands of the Wadawurrung and Dja Dja Wurrung Peoples.
