Sam Gordon welcomes a special guest to the studio this week: Jake McGregor, a close friend and Buyers Agent at Australian Property Scout. Jake’s story is incredibly inspiring from a pivotal moment in high school that set off a fire in his belly, to overcoming a $52k loss and turning it into a triple win with his next investment. Over the span of 7 years, Jake has built an impressive $4 million property portfolio, with a huge $1.6 million in equity. Jake and Sam reflect on the beginnings of Jake’s investment journey earning $9 an hour as an apprentice plumber, influenced and encouraged greatly by his parent’s own journey and hard work. Jake’s pure grit and determination is clear at every point in his story, and it’s obvious in his success how resilient and focussed he has remained and the challenges he's overcome.  Please let us know what you think of our new segment at the end, and whether you’d like to continue seeing this 🔥😉 Join us on Saturday, April 13th in the Gold Coast for our inaugural LIVE Australian Property Scout End of Quarter Summit.
