Author and podcast host John Pidgeon, of Toowoon Bay, is releasing his first book in March titled Sort Your Property Out & Build Your Future.
In his book, the property coach and co-host of the top-rating my millennial property podcast, Pidgeon, who has built a $6M portfolio, unpacks how successful investors make money and provides a step-by-step guide for starting and building a portfolio.
“Despite higher interest rates, property remained an incredible wealth creation tool – all you need is patience and the right strategy,” he said.
The book provides a practical guide on how to build a financial future through property, drawing on Pidgeon’s 25 years as a sought-after property coach and investor.
It sets out his eight-step strategy covering everything a person needs to know about starting and building a property portfolio, from developing an investor mindset through to finance options and how to choose the right properties.
“It’s about quality rather than quantity,” he said.
With his accessible, no-BS approach and plenty of real-world investor profiles, Pidgeon shows readers how to understand loans, grants, schemes, and taxes, and use smart strategies for putting together that essential deposit; learn the pros and cons of different property types and the signs that you’re looking at a hotspot; make a successful offer and secure your ideal property (whether by private sale or auction) and how to utilise advanced strategies like reinvesting, joint ventures, residential property development, and more.
“Ultimately, you’ll learn how to buy what’s right for you today and how to set smart, realistic goals for tomorrow,” he said.
“No matter if you’re a seasoned investor or just getting started, Sort Your Property Out will revolutionise the way you think about property.”
Pidgeon, who is also the Director of Envisage Property, was recognised as one of the Top 10 Property Specialists in Australian Property Investor Magazine in 2018 and 2019.
He has been investing, coaching and teaching people in property for more than 25 years and has a Diploma of Financial Planning under his belt, as well as being a qualified mortgage broker and buyers agent.
