62 Rental Portfolio, $42,000 Weekly Rent, How Michael Xia built a Cashflow Machine!!!

A key factor often overlooked is that over 25% of new homes are being acquired by investors, rather than individuals seeking primary residences. Even if Baby Boomers decide to offload their properties or more housing stock enters the market, it won’t alleviate the underlying issue. Wealthy investors will continue to absorb the available inventory, which will keep home prices elevated.

[@FerdLerd]

There's also a lack of discussion about the role that major financial institutions-banks, private equity firms, and giants like BlackRock-played by purchasing properties post-2008, treating them as investment assets. It's impossible to fully understand the current housing crisis without acknowledging this trend. Additionally, larger luxury properties are inherently more profitable than smaller, more affordable homes, leading developers to prioritize luxury developments for higher returns.

[@Jim-fz2yr]

They also play an important role buy offering more homes available to renters. Not everyone one wants to have the burden of a mortgage. In Melbourne now as investors exit the market from land tax, rents are rising and vacancy levels are very low.

How on earth is he purchasing properties on 80k

[@heiden2413]

@@pragyanbimali66usually little to no equity over leveraging position with current interest rate. most new "investor" people with that income range who boast about rental properties are people who got lucky with market timing and able to roll in equity to more current market value homes sitting on little liquid and hoping tenants make next rent pay. if it works out, it will work out just fine. saw my military friend lose his shit when his decent house was sitting vacant with two mortgages burning money on interest than principal payment. I'd rather sit on 150k cash earning interest rsther than sitting on 150k equity accruing more interest than equity. make sure to study "bad" side of the what ifs and dont invest more than you can lose

@pizzaandproperty1246 seriously, the interviews I have seen there is far more emphasis on, property went up, and little on, that's nice, but can I even afford to refinance and pull that equity out. I feel only half the equation is discussed in great depth . love your interviews, they are refreshing to see..

[@timetravela9578]

I don’t understand this, how can you buy property after property when the bank needs to know you need to be able to service them, and even if you have a really good salary at the absolute most your servicing would run out after 3 at the max….

[@pizzaandproperty1246]

This is a great questions mate, one not enough people are asking! There's a massive difference between buying a few properties and later releasing you're stuck ( which is unfortunately the mistake a lot of new investors fall into) And putting together a plan that maximises efforts and chances of significant portfolio growth. One of the best first steps you can take is making a time to sit down with a mortgage broker that's built there own portfolio past 5-6+ rentals ( DO NOT do this with a broker that has 0 or 1-2 properties ) and ask them to run growth scenarios of the kinds of rents, equity gains, income etc you'd need to produce to continue portfolio growth. The more you grow as an investor the more complex it becomes but the above is a great place to start to give you a set of parameters to aim for in the kinds of properties you're looking for, and your own personal income goals.

[@georgewang4149]

fake income docs for sure

[@googby1]

@@timetravela9578 yes agree that his lack of detail on this is troubling. How did he crack the borrowing ceiling? I ran into the same problems by prop 30. Did he set aside a portion of property to buy Reno and sell and use that trading income? Did he go low doc back then? No doc? Back then up to 2015 banks gave some brokers authority to write loans .. crazy … is that happened to him? Happened to me which was amazing. He needs to share about his credit conditions. Pre royal commission… and the leg up he had. He refers to the accountant letter’ method that siphons off trusts so they don’t form part of serviceability. Again no details but this is worth exploring for most listeners. Did he cross collateralise? Most don’t out of fear of legal issues yet there is. A way to do it safely. Did he substitute securities with term deposits , other securities., if so how , and explain how this allows one to break the borrowing limit. Come on mate get real with listeners and share your borrowing limits journey Sadly No details on funding which defeats the point of such an interview and listeners like you are just as confused

Hey Jay, I understand your question better now mate, a lot of investors will put away a maintenance fund of around $40 per week for things like this. Personally this is what I do for each property in addition we have a small slush fund of about $5k for each rental we own, some years this $40 x 52 = $2,080 is spent on maintenance sometimes it's not and goes into the slush fund to keep building. it doesn't change much at this level as long as each property has buffers in place the buffers simply grow as the portfolio does.

Something doesn’t add up..what builder works for a year with no income!how’s the builder & other workers surviving? Do you think a bank will let you pay your debt a year later or a year of shopping for a year? Cmon man..way more to the story than mentioned!

[@pizzaandproperty1246]

There possibly is mate, but I’m pretty sure Micheal said the guy was older didn’t really need the money and took a shine to a young man giving it a go 100% it’s not a normal thing, I’ve never had a builder offer that to me but I’ve now interviews 100’s of people that each have at least one part of their story that’s an extremely lucky 1%

Are you paying your land tax? How come you don't talk about land tax of 1.6% of land value above threshold in NSW.

[@ASXStockPicking]

They don’t like to disappoint their audience with some truth

[@pizzaandproperty1246]

Great question, his land tax is minimised but there would be a portion paid depending on the state and how its assessed. The real reason we didn't talk about it is simply because we had to draw the line somewhere otherwise this could turn into a 10 hour chat with Micheal 🙂 Were you after some content explaining more of the details on how land tax works?

Certainly possible to do but who needs so many hassles Better to have five freehold properties and make $60000.00 per month

A lot more than most Aussies but he’s also got a ton more equity too!

I get people buying a handful of properties to set themselves up for retirement and the argument of adding to rental supply but this is an example of pure excess and greed. He has bought up massively in areas with affordable housing which really does take away from people on middle to lower incomes from owning their own home. Cue some condescending comment from the host to justify his strategy 😂

i can't afford to buy property cause of people like Xia who hoard property and over inflate rental prices. Was born in 2004 only just graduated 2 years ago and the market is now to expensive to enter cause of property investors and government

"62 Rental Portfolio" LMAS ????!!!! NO REPLIES READ.

[@pizzaandproperty1246]

cool story bro

[@googby1]

Made me doubt his credentials when he said one of his “best performing properties “ is a Macquarie park unit , 3 blooming flight walk up. Cost $400k. Lets say it’s worth 800k today (which is what best ones go for near Waterloo rd). If that’s one of your best in a 62 property portfolio then you are naive or don’t know property. Cap growth Adelaide, brisbane tas in that same period (assuming he bought mac park 20 years ago) is around 500 to 600 per cent!!!

[@mangosorbet8183]

This is marketing, personal branding. Don’t take it too serious. Learn whatever you can here or treat it as just a bed time story.

[@pizzaandproperty1246]

Hey mate, it has more to do with the land content share of the complex and the deal that's being negotiated with a developer to buy it and another plot, adding substantially more value to his unit. Otherwise good spot in the details bro sounds like you've got a good handle on a few markets :)

[@danieldomingues607]

He said he is joining the other owners of the complex to sell to a developer for about $1.5-1.6M - that’s 400% growth in 14 years - that’s a great return on capital alone without factoring yield. I’d be extremely happy if my portfolio was perdoar that level

[@bobiscute5693]

You missed the part where he said the unit is now worth $1.5m to $1.6m as all lot/unit owners have combined to propose to sell all at once to a developer. If it’s a unit block, will the developer then demolish the entire block or renovate?

Not sure it's that straightforward, best speak to your accountant but here's a pretty helpful link below mate 👍🏼 www.infochoice.com.au/home-loans/rental-income-tax

[@bobiscute5693]

@@pizzaandproperty1246I really wonder, once you own this many properties, which structure is best to own it under? Surely all 62 properties have not been purchased personally?

[@bobiscute5693]

Not if he has purchased using other tax structures. In super for eg, income is only taxed at 15%. Company tax, 30%.

[@Davo198]

Owning 62 rental properties is complete greed. You are part of the problem. This just makes the market even more scarce and makes it harder for everyone else to afford a property. People like this should not be praised or worshiped in any way

[@NoahMunro-z5f]

In australia property investment cases like these have only grown the problem of wealth inequality. Michael Xia is part of the problem.

[@pizzaandproperty1246]

incorrect, but I hope you find what you're looking for mate :)

[@ThinhNguyen-ey2ll]

@user-zq2yu4iw2h Mate you realise he's actually "helping" the Government to provide Rental Accommodation to the general public? In fact he's doing an even bigger favour to the public than most investors as he's taking on alot more risk to provide the general public with rental accommodation. Without property investors where do you think Rental properties come from??

This guys head will hit the chopping board within 20 years. When poors can’t afford houses these people will be the first to go. People should be only be able to own one property and if they want a second it should be taxed 30-40% more. Also for intentional investors. The same as Singapore. Property should be for living not speculating.
