On The Smart Property Investment Show, Liam Garman sits down with Rohit Gehlot, founder of InvestorAid, to reveal how everyday Australians are still building property portfolios despite rising prices, tighter lending, and affordability concerns.
Gehlot shares how he built an eight-property portfolio in just a few years and why many aspiring investors rule themselves out before exploring the options available to them.
The duo explores various strategies, including rentvesting, government incentives, and targeting overlooked growth markets, while challenging the belief that investors need to buy where they live.
The discussion also touches on why freestanding homes continue to outperform many apartments, and how renovations and granny flats can accelerate both equity growth and rental returns.
Attention then turns to opportunities across Tasmania, regional NSW, and Melbourne, with Gehlot arguing that investors who stay flexible and strategic can still find opportunities despite the market noise.
