\nTranscript:<\/strong>
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>I\u2019m delighted this week that our special guest is Bryce Holdaway. Bryce, of course, is from Empower Wealth, and we\u2019ve spoken many occasions on this show about your television appearances on location but also your podcast, The Property Couch.
\nIt\u2019s great to have you on the show.
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Yes, thanks for having me, Kevin. I always like having a\u00a0<\/b>chat with you.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Thanks, mate. In this chat, I want to talk a little bit about you, Bryce, what you\u2019ve done with property and so on, and that journey. What got you involved or interested in property to start with?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>I wrote it in the book. There was an interview with Jan Somers on Ray Martin\u2019s show back in the 1990s. She got up and just scratched a few things up on a whiteboard about the tenant and the taxman paying most if not all of your bills, and if they go up in value, you create some wealth for yourself. I remember that being a massive lightbulb moment for me.
\nPreviously, my best made at high school went and worked for his father in retail, and I went and did the well-worn path of trying to get a university degree. At 18, he bought an investment property, and he just said, \u201cLook, I don\u2019t really know why I\u2019ve done it. Dad said, \u2018Do it, it\u2019ll go up in value, and I\u2019ll make some money.\u2019\u201d That planted the seed of the idea.
\nHe really couldn\u2019t answer too many of my queries, so as soon as I saw that interview on TV and just saw it explained \u2013 and it was really simple; it was a \u201cback of a napkin\u201d chat\u00a0<\/b>up on the whiteboard \u2013 I had two thoughts at that point. \u201cAh, I get what\u2019s going on here now, and to me that sounds terrific.\u201d And the other one was \u201cWhy isn\u2019t every single person on the planet doing this?\u201d
\nIt\u2019s not since I\u2019ve matured a bit that I understand that there\u2019s human mindset and psychology that gets thrown into it. But at the time, it was a massive lightbulb moment for me, and I was hooked.
\nI was studying accounting at university at the time. It was one of those things where I didn\u2019t know what I wanted to do. I wanted to be an electrical engineer and I stuffed around too much at high school and didn\u2019t get the grades. So I stumbled into commerce at uni, and my father was an accountant, so I was just heading down that path, but I wasn\u2019t passionate about it.
\nBut as soon as I found out about property, it felt like it was for me, I was in my flow, and I just loved talking to anyone who would listen.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Interesting you talk about your mate there whose father encouraged him to buy property, didn\u2019t really know why he was doing it, but just thought, \u201cWell, if dad said it, I should do it.\u201d You mentioned there about your dad being an accountant, too.
\nWhat were the conversations like around your table? Did your parents encourage you into property?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Interesting story. No, because my dad was born in 1939, so he was born in the shadows of the Great Depression and also War years, as you know. So for him, he was very much the traditionalist that you get a good, safe, secure job, you pay off the home as quickly as you can, and you don\u2019t get yourself in over your head.
\nMy dad\u2019s been very encouraging for me \u2013 my number one supporter \u2013 but there were some very robust discussions early on. Dad thought that it was better for me to not leverage and to not get into debt, to just go down the path, finish your university degree, buy your first home, and pay it off.
\nHe\u2019s really proud of what I\u2019ve done today, but at the time, he probably would have been very concerned because I took the opposite of what he said to do. I wanted to leverage myself into property, I wanted to take risks, I wanted to get into business for myself, and everything that he valued, I was bucking against.
\nBut ultimately, there were no kitchen-table discussions about property, hence me just trying to find as much information as I could in external sources. But he\u2019s always been encouraging of me.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Interesting that story you told about Jan Somers. I\u2019ve interviewed Jan on a number of occasions, and I know you have spoken to her too. Nothing much has changed. You could still get Jan up and she\u2019d still scratch on the whiteboard nowadays probably the same scenario. It hasn\u2019t really changed, Bryce, has it?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>No. It was a terrific trill for me. I met her about six weeks ago, we interviewed her on The Property Couch, and it was a terrific chat from someone who is incredibly humble, who has been investing for 45 years, who didn\u2019t complicate it.
\nI feel she was one of the pioneer educators in the country, and she\u2019s the original independent voice where she never took any kickbacks, she never took commissions, she was never seduced by any of the outside influences and the influence that she had.
\nShe said, \u201cBuying property, correctly financed, held for the long term, is my philosophy. It\u2019s been my philosophy from day one. It\u2019s still my philosophy 45 years later.\u201d And for me, it was a nice circle, completing of the loop for me, but also just to remind myself that for her, she\u2019s created a very significant level of financial independence but she\u2019s remained humble. You\u2019d never know.
\nI like the story where she says she\u2019ll indulge on a couple of things, she likes to have a nice, comfortable place to live in, but she drives an old, 2004 BMW. She actually flies business class to Europe, but once she gets there, she stays in a $20 a night accommodation that might not even have a shower.
\nJust keeping it really real and not getting seduced by some of the trappings that come from her wealth, but just looking to get her time back and her experiences back, which she\u2019s done in spades.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Jan, of course, was one of the first pioneers of educating investors. I know there\u2019s a lot of that goes on. We like to think we do on this show, and certainly you guys do on yours as well. There are a number of other podcasts that do exactly the same thing. But when you think about it, property investors are really at a great risk because of a lack of protection. They don\u2019t really have a voice, and there are many people who attack them and try and think \u201cOh, these guys are wealthy; let\u2019s try and rip them off.\u201d
\nA lot of dangers there for property investors, aren\u2019t there? And a lack of protection.
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Yes, absolutely. It\u2019s an unregulated environment, and the challenge is that the investment class is largely an emotional investment class. It\u2019s an essential need with shelter, so for you to try and regulate residential real estate is going against some very powerful lobby groups.
\nFor example, the Real Estate Institute in each state and across the country, because a real estate agent earns a living from transacting in real estate, and of course, they have a discussion around whether or not it makes for a great investment or to have a yield discussion. It\u2019s hard to say to those guys that you can\u2019t talk about investing because it\u2019s their bread and butter, but as you point out, it makes people very vulnerable.
\nI always say the barriers to entry are pretty low to be in the property investment sales game where all you need is a haircut and a suit and if you have a silver tongue, and with lots of people wanting to outsource their understanding when it comes to money.
\nI don\u2019t think there is a problem with outsourcing the execution, but a lot of people outsource the understanding and leave it in the hands of someone else and someone else\u2019s agenda. I\u2019ve been an advisor now for pretty close to 20 years helping people buy investment properties, and I\u2019ve seen some roadkill in that time \u2013 and it\u2019s largely where people have, as you say, been in a vulnerable position and people have taken advantage of that.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>What was the first property deal you ever did?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>It was a property in Vic Park in Perth back in 1999. I paid $199,940 for a three-bedroom apartment. I went into partnership with someone else because I was 23 at the time. I was so super excited. But Kevin, the funny thing is $199,000 sounds like nothing now, but the median price for Perth at the time for a house was $158,000, so I got massive buyer\u2019s remorse after that. But what I know now is I was three kilometers from the city, I was in a high land value area.
\nIt was a scary time, but I reckon that\u2019s the best decision I\u2019ve ever made, because I know that most people struggle. Only 1 in 12 people in Australia buy an investment property, and of that small percentage, nine out of ten don\u2019t buy more than two. Despite what the magazines say and the people you get to interview, they\u2019re the minority. The majority of people don\u2019t feel comfortable buying investment properties and going into debt.
\nI always think that that first one is the best deal I\u2019ve ever done, because it took me over the line. Every deal I\u2019ve ever done since has been so much easier. But that one, the adrenaline was up, the learning curve was high, and I certainly was nervous for a long, long time.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Well, that\u2019s the one you measure all the others against I guess. You mentioned there that the learning was high. Did you actually heavily research that, or was that a lucky purchase?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>No, I was really young. I\u2019d like to say that I was one of those guys who compared all asset classes, but I just loved property and I had a mentor who said, \u201cLet\u2019s buy a property together,\u201d and I just absolutely jumped at it.
\nYou learn how to play a few songs and then you learn how to read music later on. I was the guy who wanted to play a few songs before I learned the big picture. I just wanted to get into it. I just knew it was something that I wanted to get involved in.
\nBut I learned the hard way about joint and several liability, because I bought this property with this other mentor of mine, but what I didn\u2019t realize is that I only owned half the property but as far as the banks were concerned, I had 100% of the liability. So they considered me to be responsible for 100% of the loan even though I only owned a portion of the property.
\nThat was an interesting exercise to understand the lending game, and it also made me realize that investing in property is not a game of bricks and mortar; it\u2019s a game of finance. So I had to quickly understand how finance worked.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Yes, it\u2019s a game of strategy, too. Have you used the same strategy all the way through, Bryce?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>No, I\u2019ve made some mistakes, Kevin. Because I had some success young, I thought I was a bit of a legend way too early and with another couple of guys, we bought two houses in Tugun on option to do a development. We were going to knock them over and build 21 apartments just near the Coolangatta airport.
\nIt was around the time that Schapelle Corby was in the headlines. The house next door was actually her father\u2019s house. I remember we were trying to talk to him about taking that so that we could actually build more. But that was just an exercise in taking your eye off the ball, not doing the Jan Somers method of sticking to your knitting and knowing what you should do.
\nI tried to make a lot of money from being a property developer, and long story short, two years of my life I was out of the market, I burned a lot of cash to get the DA approved, and because of something in council that was outside of our control, we didn\u2019t actually get the application to go ahead. So we lost a bit of money.
\nUltimately if I had just stayed true to the process of buying good assets, holding them long term, correctly financed, I would have done a hell of a lot better in that time.
\nI\u2019ve done some speculative stuff, but now I\u2019m pretty clear on where I want to buy, and I\u2019m also clear on the fact that I have a very conservative approach now, so it\u2019s about debt retirement. I don\u2019t need to have ten properties, I don\u2019t need to have a renovation exercise; I just want to finance them correctly, buy the right ones that grow in value in growth locations, and put a lot of my debt structure around retirement debt.
\nSo ultimately I can retire with a passive income. As I said, I want to get my time back and my experiences back, and I want some freedom that comes from having that passive income. I\u2019m pretty close to my goal, which is good.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Good on you, mate.\u00a0<\/b>Is your portfolio a mixture of houses and apartments, or have you specialized?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Yes, I\u2019ve had everything, and I\u2019ve been across WA, New South Wales, Queensland, so I haven\u2019t been afraid to go across borders. If you talk to my father about apartments\u2026 I like to think of what I buy as flats rather than apartments, and the distinction being the old school 1960s and 1970s versus the new stuff. But if you talk to him about flats, he just thinks that\u2019s low socioeconomic and you\u2019d be mad. So he\u2019s just quarter-acre blocks with a detached house surrounded by a garden with a Hills hoist and a barbecue.
\nBut as we know, Baby Boomers will soon be at the tipping point where they\u2019ll no longer be the dominant force in the workforce and Gen X will take over and then Gen Y. What we do know about different generation types is they value things differently.
\nFor me, I\u2019ve gone from land content is king to land value is king. I\u2019d rather have a two-bedroom apartment four kilometers out from the CBD where the land value is high and the percentage of the purchase price of the building is low, versus some land where I have to go 30 or 35 kilometers out, where as a percentage of the purchase price, the land is really low and the building is really high.
\nI often see a lot of people saying \u201cIt\u2019s all about the land, I must buy land,\u201d and I think you have it around the wrong way. For me, you have to get the suburb first and the property second, whereas I see a lot of people go property first, suburb second.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Yes, buying the wrong way around.
\nYou mentioned there that you do buy across borders. Would you buy outside of Australia?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>I don\u2019t see the need for it, personally. I know people do. My personal view is that you need to be a sophisticated investor because you\u2019re throwing in exchange rate risk, you\u2019re throwing in different economy risk, you\u2019re throwing in geography risk, you\u2019re throwing in different legislation risks.
\nIf I go back to the fact that not many people buy an investment property and of those who actually do, a very small percentage buy more than two, let\u2019s just get our own back yard sorted first. If you can get your portfolio up to $4 or $5 million worth of value and you have significant amount of equity, you probably have a good enough base to then consider other markets.
\nLet\u2019s be honest, you can make money all around the world, but you don\u2019t want to add complexity in the early days while you\u2019re still trying to go through that accumulation phase to build up some equity and build up some cash flow.
\nFor me, it\u2019s not an ambition, but I do know that some people do. My caution would be for the beginner and the intermediate investor to probably really consider whether you do it, and then for the sophisticated investor, that\u2019s a different kettle of fish.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>You\u2019ve given us a lot of great advice in our chat together. Just to sum it up for me, Bryce, what advice would you give someone who\u2019s thinking about starting an investment property portfolio?
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>My number one advice is cash flows will tell the story. For me, I don\u2019t want for someone to get into a property purely based on an equity play where they\u2019re servicing debt with debt. I\u2019d like to see that there\u2019s some surplus at the end of the month, which shows that they have good financial discipline.
\nWe want to be in the investment game for a minimum of ten years to get some maturity out of this investment. It\u2019s a high-value transaction, high entry cost, high exit costs, so if you have to turn over too quickly, that\u2019s going to destroy your wealth rather than grow it.
\nWe have to plan our cash flows, take a bit of a look to the horizon and see what\u2019s happening in our life. Are we at the early stages of life and we may have to plan for maternity leave and being on one income? Are our kids at a stage of life where they\u2019re going to leave the nest? What\u2019s my attitude to risk?
\nAll these factors come into play as to what my next step would be, but my fundamental suggestion to anyone who\u2019s starting is be a farmer not a hunter. So multi-season outlook, know that you have a plan, reap and sow at some point in the future. It\u2019s not going to be a quick kill, whereas the hunter is looking for all those quick kills.
\nLet\u2019s be honest, the television industry that I\u2019m a part of doesn\u2019t\u00a0<\/b>help, because everyone can sit in their lounge room and watch people make what\u2019s perceived an enormous amount of money, but there\u2019s a lot of risk involved.
\nKevin:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Of course, there is. It\u2019s great talking to you, Bryce. Bryce Holdaway, of course, from Empower Wealth,\u00a0Location, Location, Location,<\/i>\u00a0and also that podcast, Property Couch.
\nBryce, thank you so much for your time. Great talking to you, mate. I look forward to catching up again soon.
\nBryce:\u00a0\u00a0<\/b>Thanks, Kevin.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
