Everything we know, published.
The research, the screens and the models we run before we commit a client's money. Five tools and six reports. All free, none of them require a call.
Interactive
Five tools. Free to use.
Not PDFs. Live software running on the same data we pay for and the same models we argue with ourselves over. Use them as often as you like, on your own numbers.
Property Buddy
Score any listing on realestate.com.au in under 60 seconds. Suburb, property features, cashflow, growth and value, scored out of 100 with a buy or avoid call, across 15,000+ suburbs and 150,000+ data points.
Suburb Intelligence Portal
3,393 suburbs, 405 LGAs, live supply and demand, and an infrastructure pipeline built by 45+ AI agents reading council reports across the country. We spend $150k a year on the data and hand the whole thing over. No credit card, no call.
Super versus Commercial
Run your own balance, salary, members, yield and horizon, and watch a geared commercial asset inside an SMSF compound against sitting in super. Every input is yours to move, including the ones that make property lose.

Reports and guides
Six reports. Nothing held back for the call.
Each one is an internal document we decided to publish: the screens, the numbers and the deals, exactly as we run them. Start wherever you are.
The 3 Mistakes That Kill Portfolios
Why good earners stall at two properties. Wrong entity, wrong timing, wrong research, all three in full, plus how to tell which ones you have before property three gets declined.
The Salary Replacement Map
How many properties until the job is optional. A five line worksheet on your own numbers, the buy six, sell two, keep four mechanics behind a $100k income, and all four rules.
The 2026 Playbook for High Achievers
The five position exit sequence, year by year. Four strategies with published yield floors, the structure map, sixteen settled deals and every assumption behind the numbers.
The 6 Checks Before We Let You Buy
Three checks on the market, three on the address, and all six have to clear. Including the serviceability question that decides whether you get to four or stall at two.
The Bleed List
Six Melbourne suburbs we will not touch, named and ranked, with nine data points each and what the worst of them costs you a year. The bleed maths is published in full.
38 High Yield Apartment Markets
Where apartment prices have diverged furthest from houses in the same postcode, every market clearing 6% gross, and the four of the thirty eight we are actually buying in.
Who publishes this
We do not teach this. We run it.
Every document on this page is an internal one. The same screens, models and criteria we use before we commit a client's money, and before we commit our own.
