Imti builds four versions of the same investing decision around one client, Jess, changing a single variable each round, and Pete and Skye have to lock in an answer. Should Jess use a parental guarantor now, or wait? What if her parents are nervous about the market? What if she could buy solo with a smaller deposit instead ... go big with a guarantor, or go low and debt-free? And what if she's planning to move out and her cash flow flips negative? The scenarios expose the real decision-making factors behind a guarantor call: certainty, cash buffers, capital growth, and, as it turns out, how much stress a family can actually handle.\n\nConnect with us ➜ https://linktr.ee/ftpi.pod\nFirst Time Property Investor is for Australians who want to invest in property but feel stuck between too much information, conflicting advice, and the fear of getting it wrong.\nGet honest conversations, practical insights, and clear strategy to help you avoid costly mistakes and move forward with confidence.\nHosted by Imti, Pete and Skye, with insight from the finance, buying, sales and property management sides of the industry.","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/2SXBqT7JCQgfSmeE1U3e1d0jOwdazVnyTO1sDKLJ_RE/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS80Njlh/MDZjODI5MmM5NjVk/ZGEyNmQ2ZGFhMWQ2/MTA4YS5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
