WANT TO KNOW WHAT PROPERTY INVESTMENT IS REALLY ALL ABOUT?
Tired of endless get-rich-quick schemes and promises of instant wealth from self-proclaimed real estate gurus that leave you with no actionable step-by-step plan to start and grow your Investment Portfolio sustainably?
We feel your frustration as we too experienced these empty promises along our journey to financial independence. This course was developed to deliver practical, actionable value to people starting their Property Investment journey so you can avoid the many pitfalls we were subject to at the start of our investing careers.
We can't promise that you'll get rich enough to buy your own Chateau in France, but our Property Investment Strategy was the catalyst that enabled us to build capital, seize lucrative investment opportunities and ultimately leave our day jobs and focus on Investing full time in our early thirties. We'd love to share what we've learnt with you!
If you want to learn the fundamentals of real estate investing, and do it in a manner that is sustainable, enjoyable and achievable on a part time basis while coping with the demands of a full-time job, this is the course for you!
While getting our Chartered Accountant and Business degrees, we coincidentally both started our property investing journeys independently at age 23. Since then, we’ve literally spent hundreds of hours on research, thousands of hours on practical application and have mentored many along the way.
We've packed this course full of value, so you can access a wealth of knowledge that took us many years to accumulate and thereby accelerate your progress as a Property Investor!

WHAT’S HOLDING YOU BACK?
- Are you afraid this course won’t work?
We assure you it will if you diligently apply the principles learnt.
- Are you afraid this course will work and you’ll actually have to step out of your comfort zone and start investing?
We can totally relate. Doing something you're uncertain or perhaps somewhat anxious about can be really unnerving. But as they say, Discomfort is a catalyst for Growth. Doing the things that scare you are often the most rewarding.
A good tip would be to find your "why", your reason for needing to invest, whether it's your children, your retirement, dreams of travel etc. This will motivate you to do what is necessary to achieve your financial goals. You've got this!
- Are you afraid it will take time and effort?
It will. Real estate investing requires dedication, but that is why the returns are so rewarding compared to other asset classes! If it was uber easy, everyone would do it and returns would be way lower.
Our Property Investment Strategy however, is designed to require minimal management because we put systems in place to reduce our involvement in the investment. Having had full time jobs for the majority of our Investing career, we needed flexibility and therefore designed our Strategy to optimise for "part time management". After all, if you aren't enjoying the investing experience, you can be driven to quit the journey prematurely.
Best of all, there is absolutely ZERO risk. Udemy gives you a 30-day money back guarantee to ensure you get what you pay for.
So go ahead, sign up and let's start this profound journey of financial self-discovery together!

Get to know Timm:
Hi, I’m Timm and I am passionate about all things relating to financial freedom…mine AND Yours!
I developed an interest in finance and investing through exposure to these topics at a young age. This interest developed into a passion which led me to pursue a career as a Chartered Accountant (S.A.). This designation, coupled with my love for anything investment related, allowed me to develop a property portfolio in my early twenties.
With humble beginnings, earning a salary of R4 500 per month, I purchased my first property in 2014. Since then, I have purchased, managed and sold a multitude of properties in a variety of legal structures across South Africa. Property Investment was my first passion and has been a powerful tool in leveraging my financial position.
I look forward to sharing my knowledge, experience and passion of property investment with you. We will be with you each step of the way.
Get to know Justin:
Money is in my blood. Since as far back as I can remember, I have always had a keen interest in all things related to money and investing. From building my own piggy banks as a young kid to save my coins, through to obsessing over the Monopoly board game in my early teens, it was as though my career path had been laid out for me.
In 2006, I graduated from college with a degree in business, but I left with more questions than answers. I spent the next 2 years in pursuit of as much financial knowledge as I could absorb and in 2009, I bought my first investment property at the age of 23.
Over the next decade, I aggressively pursued my love for finance and investing. I quickly learned to manage significant assets and how to leverage debt to my advantage.
As my investment portfolio grew, so did my passion for further financial education and my desire to impart what I had learned to others.
Over the years, I have been successful in empowering a number of individuals to meet their financial goals and to regain control over their financial situations.
Mentoring others to improve their financial reality has been one of the most rewarding pursuits of my life.
I truly believe the greatest investment you can ever make is your own financial education. I look forward to sharing this journey with you.
