How this teacher and farmer chooses his investment properties

By Phillip Tarrant 14 September 2020 | 1 minute read

On this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Phil Tarrant is joined by Brett Ryan, a full-time teacher and farmer based in Gulargambone, NSW.

Brett holds several properties across NSW’s central west and mid-northern coast regions.

He chats to Phil about his thought process in buying property, the pros and cons he takes into account and why COVID-19 derailed his plans to invest in a metropolitan hotspot.
