Which real estate asset classes will actually win in 2026… and which ones should you avoid? In this episode of The Commercial Property Show Australia, Andrew Bean breaks down the brutal truth about property performance in the year ahead, ranking 17 different real estate asset types from worst to best using a clear, no nonsense framework investors can actually apply.

Rather than hype or guesswork, this episode walks through why certain assets are likely to outperform in 2026, where risk is quietly building, and where the biggest value add opportunities still exist for smart investors. Whether you invest in residential, commercial, or are looking to transition into higher cash flow assets, this episode will sharpen your thinking and challenge a few assumptions.

• Why some popular asset classes may underperform in 2026 despite strong headlines
• The 5 part framework used to rank 17 real estate asset types from worst to best
• How vacancy risk, tenant mix, and operational complexity impact long term returns
• Which asset classes offer the strongest cash flow and value add potential right now

This episode is ideal for investors focused on commercial property investing, cash flow, value add real estate strategies, self storage, industrial property, and long term portfolio growth.

What if one lending policy could change how much you can borrow, when you can borrow and even whether you stay in residential or move into commercial property sooner than planned?

APRA’s new Debt to Income cap is coming, and in this episode we break down exactly what it means for home buyers, investors and anyone building a property portfolio in Australia.

I’m joined by my personal finance and business broker, Charles Zerafa from Integrity Finance, who lifts the lid on how banks assess risk, how lending appetites shift behind the scenes and why this new DTI policy could reshape borrowing capacity for years to come.

Whether you’re stretching for your next investment, planning your first home purchase or thinking about diversifying into commercial property, this episode gives you the insider playbook you won’t hear from your bank.

In this episode we cover • What APRA’s new DTI cap actually is, why it’s being introduced and who it impacts most • How banks decide which loans to approve, what they consider high risk and why timing your application matters • How investors may reach their borrowing limits sooner and why more people could shift into commercial property • Smart ways to structure loans across multiple lenders to maximise borrowing capacity • The real world impact on home buyers, first time investors, and mixed residential commercial portfolios

If you’re into commercial property investing, personal finance, residential lending strategy or building a portfolio the smart way, this is a must listen.

In this episode of the Commercial Property Show Australia, Andrew Bean breaks down one of the biggest decisions every commercial investor must make.

Do you buy a set and forget commercial property, or go after a value add deal that can rapidly accelerate your wealth? The right choice depends on your time, capital, goals, and where you sit in your investing journey.

Andrew unpacks both strategies in detail and gives you a practical framework to help you choose the right asset for your situation. He also shares personal stories about escaping salary caps, building multiple income streams, and how mastering value add deals helped him build a $17.3M portfolio with little to no money down.

If you want clarity, direction, and a deeper understanding of how commercial property actually builds wealth, this episode is for you.

• What a true “set and forget” commercial investment really is Stable tenants, strong leases, predictable income, low time commitment.
• What defines a genuine value add opportunity Buying below true market value, fixing problems, and forcing big capital growth.
• Who should use each strategy Business owners, employees, high income professionals, retirees, and investors who want life changing results.
• Why value add deals can transform your finances fast Use knowledge, creativity, and market understanding to unlock hidden income.
• The danger of relying on only one income stream Why employees benefit the most from learning value add skills.

If you’ve ever wondered how the pros actually run the numbers on a commercial property, this video shows everything. Andrew takes you onsite to inspect the property, breaks down every tenancy, pulls apart the cash flow, and shows you exactly how to work out the right offer price using real numbers from a real deal.

In this episode, Andrew Bean shares an in-depth look at his newest self-storage value-add project located on the Central Coast of NSW. Building on the success of his previous $5.7M to $8M transformation in Wollongong, Andrew walks us through how he sourced this underperforming asset, structured the deal, and is rapidly increasing its value through smart operations, automation, and future development potential.

Key Takeaways:

• The Self-Storage Strategy: Why industrial self-storage is Andrew's current investment focus and how it compares to SaaS-style recurring revenue businesses.
• Sourcing the Deal: The importance of long-term agent relationships and how patience and timing landed this opportunity.
• The Numbers: Purchase price at $3.2M, with an $81K increase in NET income already—boosting the property’s value by $1.3M within 8 months.
• Hands-On Value Add: Learn how Andrew cleaned up an overgrown site, implemented a management system, improved occupancy to 98%, and prepared the property for expansion.
• Future Upside: Plans to add 26 portable units and a full first-floor development, projecting the property’s value to hit $8M–$9M.
• The Deal Structure: How Andrew negotiated a win-win for all parties involved—sellers, agents, and property managers—using a creative license fee and option fee model.
