In this episode of Investing for Doctors, we are joined by Rich Harvey, CEO and Founder of PROPERTYBUYER, to challenge the idea that property is simply about owning a home. We unpack why property remains a powerful long-term wealth creation tool for doctors, particularly as a hedge against inflation, and why many high-income professionals stall after one or two purchases due to fear, mindset, and analysis paralysis rather than lack of opportunity.

Rich explains how doctors can use leverage safely, choose the right type of property at different life stages, and avoid common traps such as over-supplied areas or poor structures. We also explore how to keep building when personal borrowing capacity runs out, using strategies across personal ownership, trusts, and self-managed super funds. This episode is a practical guide for doctors who know they have capacity but want a clearer, more confident path forward.
