What is the Wealth Wheel? And How Do I Use It To Keep Growing A Portfolio Indefinitely? | Ep. 556

About this episode

In this episode, we are once again joined by Matthew Harris from Momentum Property, to discuss the Wealth Wheel approach to property investment.

This is where a property investor will purchase both positively and negatively geared investments, which then offset one another. In practice, this means purchasing enough higher yield property to pay for the investment properties that grow in value quickly, but which lose money in terms of cash flow.

We also announce that we will host property investment dinners in Wellington, Auckland, Christchurch and Queenstown, with 10 investors (+ partners) at each. To enter the draw, follow us on instagram, share the podcast on your story and leave us a review. Then take a screenshot and send it to podcast@opespartners.co.nz.
