PODCAST EPISODE 340 – Can You Really Protect Your Property Investments?

In this episode, Paul discusses how to arrange your investments to protect your real estate portfolio. Too many investors fall into survivorship bias, seeing only the winners in real estate while ignoring those who took on too much debt and lost big.

You’ll also learn practical tips for risk management, including portfolio insurance, and how the “Rule of Half” can safeguard your wealth. This simple framework ensures you never have to sell an investment property at the wrong time, helping you stay in the game long term.

Whether you’re focused on passive income, building a real estate portfolio, or planning for retirement, this episode provides timeless strategies to keep your balance sheet strong.
