How data-driven strategies enable success in changing market conditions
In a recent exclusive investor roundtable organised by The Smart Property Investment Show, Arjun Paliwal from InvestorKit sat down with Phil Tarrant to share his journey from CBA branch manager to successful property investor, offering sharp insights rooted in banking and data-driven strategy.
Investors should harness data and debt-optimisation strategies, such as rentvesting and downsizing, to navigate Australia's dynamic housing market, according to InvestorKit CEO Arjun Paliwal.
Speaking at the inaugural Smart Property Investment roundtable, co-hosted by The SPI Show’s Phil Tarrant, 33-year-old entrepreneur Paliwal unpacked how savvy investors are using technology and market segmentation to outmanoeuvre macroeconomic pressures and find growth in unconventional places.
Arjun discussed his career in banking, explaining that his move into real estate was driven by curiosity and a strong belief in the power of data, reflected in his early success investing in Tasmania.
He then described Australia’s $11.4 trillion property market as stable, noting that while investor sentiment fluctuates with interest rates, local supply and demand ultimately shape outcomes.
The exclusive roundtable then turned to Arjun’s investment approach, and how InvestorKit categorises markets into early adopters, hotspots, and second-wind zones, allowing investors to tailor their strategies to evolving conditions.
The roundtable wraps up unpacking the rising use of self-managed super funds (SMSFs) for property investing, emphasising the need for careful planning and diversification.
