How I Bought 2 Properties In 4 Months As A 51-Year-Old First-Time Investor - Samantha Gillett

Samantha Gillett is a property investor from Sydney. As a 51-year-old mother of five children, plus two dogs and a full-time job, you would think of her as the typical investor. But after being inspired by a family member, she decided to start doing her own research on property investing. Not long after, she brought her husband along with the ride and together they hit the ground running, buying 2 properties in only 4 months.

In this episode of Property Uncovered, Sanjeev sits down with Samantha to discuss what it’s like to buy a property through Zoom, how to get your partner on board with your investment plan, or why it’s never too late to take action and get started on your goals.

- “My husband and I went through school learning that having debt it's a bad thing.”

- “Now is the best time to invest because while there is high-interest rates, many people don't want to buy.”

- “I really believe that these days, with technology like Zoom, it's really irrelevant where the property is located now.”

- “We really believe the more properties we have the better off we will be when retirement comes around. It will give us more options and flexibility to do what we want to do.”
