EP. 2 | How Trust Lending Gave Birth to the Perpetual Borrowing Myth

Описание: Most investors were told that buying property through a trust would allow them to borrow forever.

That belief created what many now call the perpetual borrowing myth.

In Episode 2 of The Property Portfolio Podcast, Julius, Mudit and Parag break down how trust lending originally worked, why it became popular for asset protection and portfolio diversification, and how rising property prices and interest rates changed the game.

What once worked in a different lending environment does not always hold up today.

In this episode, we discuss

• How trust structures were traditionally used in property investing
• Why higher prices and tighter lending conditions exposed weaknesses
• The negative gearing limitations inside trusts
• The real costs of setting up and maintaining trust structures
• Why portfolio balance matters more than chasing borrowing capacity
• The importance of asset selection and having a clear exit plan

Many investors focused only on growth and borrowing power without fully understanding the long-term financial impact. When rates increased, some portfolios became difficult to hold.

If you are building a property portfolio in Australia, this conversation will help you rethink how you structure your next purchase.
