About the show

The Property Academy Podcast is a daily show that gives you insight, analysis and strategies for how to get the most out of the NZ property market. It's hosted by Ed and Andrew from Opes Partners. Ok, now for the legal bit. The Property Academy Podcast is for your general information. It’s not financial advice. So the hosts aren’t telling you what to do with your own money. We’ve made every effort to make sure the information is accurate. But we occasionally get the odd fact wrong. Make sure you do your own research or talk to a financial adviser before making any investment decisions.
