Too many Australian investors buy property based on 'hot tips' or what friends recommend. Without proper suburb-level data, they risk overpaying, missing hidden risks, or locking into low-yield areas.

Australian landlords often think agents are the only way to manage rentals. But 4–8% fees, hidden charges, and poor service cost more than most realise.

Many landlords rent spare rooms casually — no contract, just cash or bank transfers. This feels simple, but it creates serious risks.
