THE PROPERTY NERDS: 7 properties by 35

In this episode of The Property Nerds podcast, hosts Arjun Paliwal, Jack Fouracre, and Adrian Lee sit down with Kit Gunasekara from InvestorKit to explore why investors shouldn't wait for the "perfect opportunity" and take action to drive momentum.

The conversation centres on the idea that taking imperfect action delivers progress, a mindset Gunasekara credits with helping him build a $5 million portfolio by his early 30s.

Gunasekara shares how the discomfort of advising others before fully committing himself pushed him to start investing and think long-term about scalability.

He reflects on early mistakes, including a poorly timed purchase of a Melbourne apartment, and explains how those setbacks became critical learning points rather than failures.

The discussion highlights the importance of understanding land value, market cycles, and fundamentals instead of chasing hype.

Gunasekara also outlines how a data-led approach in Queensland delivered strong growth by aligning strategy with market conditions.

Now a portfolio strategist at InvestorKit, he draws on his own journey to help hundreds of clients build equity and confidence.

The hosts reinforce that informed action, adaptability, and learning from mistakes drive long-term success in property investing.
