Ever wondered what property investment actually means, and why every Kiwi seems obsessed with it? G Lane & Matt Heath from The ACC dive into NZ’s property obsession with the experts from Staircase Financial - uncovering what property investment really means and how everyday Kiwis are quietly building wealth through it.
In this episode of The Alternative Guide to Property Investment, Mike and Matt dig into the question every Kiwi asks - how the hell do you actually afford to buy an investment property? The experts from Staircase Financial reveal how ordinary homeowners can tap into the value of their existing property - their usable equity - to fund their next purchase, sometimes with no cash deposit at all.

After learning what property investment is, how to fund it, and where to buy, this episode is about turning knowledge into action.
