EP178: Behind the Social Media Success: The Truth About Property Mistakes

When property investing goes wrong… nobody posts about it. In this brutally honest episode of Your Property Network, Ant is joined by Dave Wigram-Tomes to talk about the side of property that doesn’t make it onto social media. From blown budgets and planning delays to builder issues and refinance nightmares, this is a real-world look at what actually happens behind the scenes of property projects. Dave shares: • A deal that hit the numbers — but still had problems • A conversion project that became an expensive “property degree” • The costly mistake of trusting professionals without understanding the detail • Why 20% contingency should be non-negotiable • How poor investor communication can destroy relationships • Why switching strategies too quickly can set you back years If you’re building a property portfolio — or thinking about starting — this episode could save you serious money and stress. Because mistakes are normal. Shame is optional. And the real winners are the ones who learn fast. 🎧 Follow Your Property Network for more real conversations about what it really takes to build wealth through property.
