Welcome back folks! In Episode 383 of The Property Couch, we’re discussing how to optimise your mindset and control your emotions as an investor. We’re talking about how to navigate not knowing all the facts, and what bases you do need to cover.

And since it’s Q&A Day we’ve got tons more gold in the bank!

We’re answering your questions around knowing when to change Buyers Agents (or when to back them!), and why it’s important to know the difference between specialist and regular Buyers Agents!

PLUS, we’re unpacking the upcoming generational wealth transfer that will flow from Baby Boomers and explaining key factors you should understand, or have in place, BEFORE deciding to upgrade houses.

There’s something for all ages in there, so tune in now!
