Shivani and her husband Sam built their dream home in Canberra. Then they sold it and moved to the Gold Coast. In 12 months they secured a canal front home in Broadbeach Waters and two investment properties, all while running a business and raising two young boys. This is the first episode of Everyday Gold Coaster. Matt sits down with Shivani to unpack how they did it, from making the move to setting up an SMSF and buying in two weeks.

Recently Matt was interviewed for Bothsides Podcast by Daniel Beardall. This week we’re sharing that episode for all of you. The most expensive thing buyers are doing right now is staying out of the market. Not because they aren't motivated. Most have finance approved. They're just waiting for a certainty that never comes. Matt joins buyers agent Daniel Beardall on Bothsides to break down why low urgency markets are where the best buyers move. The Buy Zone framework, the Gold Coast price bracket Matt rates right now, and the bridesmaid suburbs picking up the ripple. 🏡 Gold Coast Buyers Agency 👉 https://www.thesramagroup.com/ In this episode, we cover: Why staying out of the market is the most expensive mistake buyers make
Some of the best pockets on the Gold Coast don't come up when you search. Not because they're secret. Because they're not suburbs. They're pockets inside suburbs, and unless you already know the name, you'll scroll straight past them.
