The Adviser

Ever wondered how brokers build their own investment property portfolios? Hank Hong explains how he balances broking with a growing real estate collection.

Hank Hong buys property in all different ways – by himself, with family members and with financial backers to create small developments – and he has lots of lessons to offer other investors.

On a recent episode of The Smart Property Investment Show podcast, Hank tells hosts Phil Tarrant and Vivienne Kelly why he invests in all kinds of different structures and how this benefits his ultimate wealth creation goals.

He also puts his mortgage broking hat on and gives investors some hot tips on interest rates, fixed loans, co-investing and how to build wealth through borrowing money.
