DEFENCE PROPERTY PODCAST: Buyer beware – protecting yourself from bad property advice

In this episode of the Defence Property Podcast, co-hosts Liam Garman and Kane Dury – director and lead buyers agent at Discover Buyers Agency – unpack how to identify shady property operators and protect yourself from poor property advice. They kick-off with a warning for listeners about groups who pretend to act in the best interest of property buyers but instead pocket undisclosed commissions from third parties - sometimes as high as $50,000 - on top of upfront fees paid by the buyer. Dury then dives into the world of house and land packages, explaining why their oversupply can limit long-term investment potential. Finally, the pair explore the key factors investors should consider to ensure strong future growth in their property purchases. Enjoy the podcast, The Defence Connect team
