Welcome to Property Investor Tales - Stories From The Front Yard, where we talk to property investors from around Australia about their investing journey. I am Bob Provan, a Property Investment Adviser here at Positive Real Estate, where we help people build wealth through property. With over 8000 clients across Australia and New Zealand, there are some incredible stories to tell, which hopefully make your investing journey that little bit easier.
In this episode of Property Investor Tales I interview my mother Audrey Provan, we discuss our family's real estate journey over the decades. Exploring various properties the family has owned, the decisions made during each purchase and sale, and the lessons learned along the way. The conversation highlights the importance of having a strategy and seeking professional advice in property investment, as well as the emotional aspects of buying a home. We conclude with reflections on missed opportunities and the value of knowledge in making informed real estate decisions.
