Zero to Nine Properties in 5 Years – How to Build a Sustainable Property Portfolio

In this episode of the Propertybuyer Podcast, Rich Harvey welcomes Jono Roy, Buyers Agent and Investment Specialist at Propertybuyer, to explore the realities of building a sustainable and scalable property portfolio. Many Australians dream of owning multiple investment properties, creating long-term wealth, and enjoying a life of financial freedom. But what does it actually take to grow from zero to nine properties in just five years? And how can everyday investors navigate the risks and opportunities of an ever-changing market? Jono brings a wealth of experience to the conversation, with a personal portfolio of nine investment properties valued at $4.5 million and an impressive track record of successful property flips, including a $155K profit on a single project. As the former Head of Research at one of Australia’s leading buyer’s agencies, he played an instrumental role in overseeing the purchase of over 1,000 properties in just three and a half years, making him a trusted expert in building high-performing portfolios. In this episode, Jono shares his journey from first-time investor to seasoned strategist, offering valuable insights into the mindset and methods that helped him scale his portfolio so rapidly. Rich and Jono unpack the investment philosophies that work in today’s market, how to overcome fear and uncertainty in big decision-making moments, and the strategies Jono uses to identify high-potential deals across Australia. They dive deep into topics such as property selection, market diversification, leveraging equity effectively, and the importance of ongoing education to stay ahead of market trends. Jono also shares lessons learned from his biggest mistakes, and offers practical advice for investors at all stages of their journey—from those just starting out to those looking to expand their portfolio. Beyond the numbers, this episode explores the personal and professional growth that comes with serious property investing, and how to build resilience in the face of challenges. Whether you’re an aspiring investor aiming for your first property or an experienced buyer looking to scale up, this conversation is packed with actionable strategies to help you succeed.
