How SMSF can unlock Melbourne’s property potential
In this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, host Alex Whitlock is joined by Ross Le Quesne and Darsan Keshav to discuss navigating Melbourne’s property market through a self-managed super fund (SMSF) and broader investment strategies.
Whitlock shares his first SMSF purchase, highlighting Melbourne’s potential for long-term capital growth despite recent market stagnation.
Le Quesne explains the benefits of SMSFs, including opportunities for leverage and a favourable tax environment, while also noting the regulatory complexities involved.
Keshav provides insights into Melbourne’s current market, identifying growth pockets in the western and northern suburbs with strong rental yields and undervalued properties.
The conversation includes a case study of Whitlock’s St Kilda apartment purchase, showcasing strategic bidding, prime location, and careful analysis of comparable sales.
The hosts also explore opportunities in other major cities like Brisbane and Sydney’s surrounding areas, advising a focus on demographic and economic fundamentals over regional hotspots.
Diversification within a property portfolio is emphasised, with a mix of locations and property types mitigating risk and enhancing potential returns.
