How do you know what a property is actually worth before you buy it?
In this episode, Lloyd Edge breaks down one of the most important skills every property investor and home buyer needs to master — determining true market value.
With property prices moving rapidly and buyer competition remaining strong across many parts of Australia, understanding what a property is genuinely worth can be the difference between building wealth and making an expensive mistake.
Lloyd explains how experienced investors assess market value, why comparable sales matter, how to identify misleading pricing tactics, and what buyers should look for before making an offer.
The discussion also covers rental appraisals, under-market and over-inflated rents, location analysis, flood zones, busy roads, and the common mistakes buyers make when relying too heavily on agent advice.
The episode finishes with Deal or No Deal, where three real properties are analysed live based on value, location, growth potential, and investment fundamentals.
If you've ever wondered:
• How do I work out a property's true market value?
• How do investors avoid overpaying?
• Can I trust the agent's price guide?
• What sales should I compare against?
• How important are rental appraisals?
• What red flags should buyers watch for?
