This week, Sam Gordon is joined by APS client Adam to unpack his incredible property journey to date. With a portfolio built in just 12 months totalling $1,606,500 in total purchase price and a valuation of $2,136,000, Adam and Kerry have unlocked $530,000 in equity and positioned themselves for a massive 2025. From humble beginnings in Mount Druitt, where his parents worked tirelessly to support their family, Adam's story is one of resilience, determination, and grit. Despite facing life’s toughest challenges, including the loss of his mother at a young age, Adam has turned adversity into a driving force for success. His focus on building a brighter future for his family fuels his investment journey.

Adam shares the highs and lows of his property journey, from early missteps with financial advisors and BAs to finding the right guidance through APS. With four properties under his belt, Adam exemplifies what can be achieved with the right strategy and mindset.
