UK tradie turned Aussie expat Patty shares how a life pivot took him from building a booming construction business in Sydney to moving back to Liverpool, while still growing wealth in Australia from the other side of the world. We unpack why he chose to invest back home (not the UK), the role a buyer’s agent played, the myths he ditched (hello, “buy by the beach”) and how his first purchase in Townsville jumped from just over $580k to $740k in a year.

If you’re an Aussie living abroad or planning a move this chat shows the exact mindset, team, and process to build a portfolio remotely, stay calm through hiccups (tenants, maintenance, time zones), and use early equity to step into capital-city markets next.

What you’ll learn:

Expat playbook: currency, distance, and time-zone realities made simple

Australia vs UK: cash flow vs growth and why it matters for long-term goals

Strategy over postcode: how data beats emotion when you don’t live locally

From 1 property to portfolio: using growth to fund the next buy
