In the latest episode of The Smart Property Investment Show, Liam Garman speaks with Ross Le Quesne, head buyer’s agent at KHI Property Partners, and investor Alex Whitlock about the Melbourne property market.

Ross shares his extensive experience as a broker, business investor, and buyer’s agent, offering insights that Alex has relied on for guidance.

The trio highlights Melbourne’s modest property growth of around 15 per cent over the past five years compared with surges in other cities, suggesting a potential “once in a cycle” opportunity.

Ross emphasises the importance of timing and location, noting that areas with scarcity, strong infrastructure, and access to amenities tend to appreciate more.

Alex illustrates this with a recent purchase of a property marketed as a four-bedroom house that was actually two two-bedroom apartments, showing the value of local expertise.

Ross also offers practical advice on financial readiness, debt management, and alternative strategies, such as self-managed super funds or commercial property.

The trio then discusses the emotional side of investing, urging buyer’s agents to help maintain objectivity.
