In this episode, Gemma Mitchell is joined by Ben Kingsley, one of Australia’s leading property investment advisers, founder of Empower Wealth, and Chair of the Property Investors Council of Australia. Ben, alongside long-time business partner Bryce Holdaway, recently released their third book, How to Retire on $3,000 a Week. Together, they’ve built a strong reputation for helping everyday Australians better understand property investing, and are also the co-authors of best-selling titles Make Money Simple Again and The Armchair Guide to Property Investing. While Bryce wasn’t part of this conversation, Ben shares practical insights from their latest book and his decades of experience helping investors build wealth through property. In this episode, we cover: - how property can fit alongside super as part of a broader wealth plan - whether there is a sweet spot when it comes to the number of investment properties to own - what’s inside their latest book and the key ideas behind retiring on $3,000 a week - practical lessons from working with everyday Australians on long-term property strategies Resources for this episode Ask a question (select the Property podcast) Rask Resources Pete's Buyers Agency Alcove mortgage broking Amy Lunardi Buyers Agency (Melbourne) All services Financial Planning Invest with us Access Show Notes Ask a question We love feedback!
