Are Investment Properties Worth It? Full Cashflow & Growth Forecast (Australia 2025)

You may hear property people shout out things like, “cash flow positive”, “massive returns”, “yada yada”...

But in this episode, I break down the actual costs you could expect, weekly cash flow position, and long-term capital growth projections - so you can confidently plan your property investing strategy for 2025 and beyond.

Buying an investment property seems like a pathway to immediate passive income.

But the reality is more complex.

Many first-time investors face weekly holding costs before their property becomes cashflow positive.

By understanding the true financial commitment upfront - including stamp duty costs, land tax, and property management fees - you’ll avoid costly surprises and make smarter decisions about growing your property portfolio.

In this comprehensive episode, I analyse a real-world $650,000 investment property scenario, breaking down:

✅Upfront purchasing costs across multiple Australian states (WA, VIC, QLD, NSW)

✅Ongoing weekly cash flow analysis and holding cost breakdown

✅How rental yields between 3.8% to 4.5% impact your returns

✅Negative gearing tax benefits and depreciation realities

✅Long-term growth forecasts using conservative projections

✅How to estimate your timeline for achieving positive cash flow in property investing

You'll also learn why even properties that cost money each week can still generate substantial wealth.
