Show Notes
Recorded on the road in Perth ahead of the live show, Sammy sits down with APS die-hards Lloyd and Mons. Seven properties purchased in three years and a portfolio now sitting around $3M.Three years ago, Lloyd booked a call with APS for one reason. To stress test a decision he’d already made with another buyer’s agency and he signed the same day!
Mons was the sceptic. Not because she doubted Lloyd. Because she didn’t feel smart enough to understand property. Property quickly stopped being his thing and became their thing. Just two everyday people, who have given it a go and they reckon they’ve only just started!
