They kick-off with a warning for listeners about groups who pretend to act in the best interest of property buyers but instead pocket undisclosed commissions from third parties – sometimes as high as $50,000 – on top of upfront fees paid by the buyer.

Dury then dives into the world of house and land packages, explaining why their oversupply can limit long-term investment potential.

Finally, the pair explore the key factors investors should consider to ensure strong future growth in their property purchases.
