Best First Home Opportunity in Australia

overview.

Dad's pick of the best first-home opportunity in the country right now. Three real places, from a $260k CBD apartment to a $440k townhouse, and an honest look at strata fees before you sign up for an apartment.

On this episode it's Dad, John Kefalianos: finance broker and property developer. I asked him to name the single best first-home opportunity he's seeing right now.

"The sticker price is the start of the conversation, not the end. Strata can quietly turn a cheap apartment into an expensive one."
