Property mentoring
Transforming sporting success into long-term rewards.Why property
We provide property investing advice to athletes because real estate has been one of the most reliable investments in Australia over recent decades.
Property values have increased off the back of steady population growth. Australians love living in and near major cities, which has fueled the expansion of urban areas, leading to a rise in property values. In addition, the country’s strong rental market has benefited investors in terms of both yields and capital appreciation.
Where other assets have fluctuated, Australian house values have seen consistent annualised growth, equating to 5.6% over the past thirty years.
Put another way, since 1975, average wages have risen by 1000% while national house prices have increased by 3,435%!

Our mentoring approach
We designed our four-stage approach to assist sportspeople in making the best decisions based on where they want to go and the future they want to create for themselves and their families.
Research
We get to know your goals and create a personalised strategy. Our expert insights enable us to explore market trends and growth areas before presenting you with potential opportunities.
Invest
With our guidance, we help you to secure properties with strong growth potential. Merritt Sports’ approach to property mentoring centres on maximising returns and minimising risks as we work toward leveraging your initial investment to build a diversified portfolio.
Secure
Building your wealth over time involves a combination of strategies. For instance, we may recommend pausing additional purchases to let the rental income grow; refinancing could be an option to improve cash flow in favourable conditions; and we could prioritise protecting your portfolio by holding onto property long-term and avoiding unnecessary sales.
Enjoy
The reward of an astute investment strategy should be financial freedom, the ability to use your accumulated wealth to purchase your dream home, live mortgage-free and enjoy passive income.

What matters when investing
Market returns
To determine whether a property is a good investment, it’s important to take a longer-term (10+ years) view of a specific area rather than looking at short-term market fluctuations.
Rental yields
You want your investment to work for you, both in terms of its valuation as well as how much rental income it generates for you annually.
Vacancy rates
Investing in areas with low vacancy rates is key to ensuring your property attracts stable tenants that deliver a reliable rental income.
