The short answer

Who does Equimax help?

Equimax helps investors across Australia and international buyers, whether you’re buying your first investment property, growing a portfolio, at your borrowing limit, buying interstate or thinking about building. Every plan starts with a research-led strategy built around your finances and your goals.

We’re property investment advisors, so the plan is built around you and your goals, and the property comes after the plan.

1Is this you?

First-time investors

I know I should be investing. I just don’t know where to start, or who to trust.What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Conflicting advice, the worry of picking the wrong suburb or property, and not knowing what you can comfortably borrow.

How we help

We start with your goals and your numbers, set a purchasing limit with your mortgage broker, then research where your first property should be. It becomes step one of a long-term plan, not a one-off guess.

2Is this you?

Growing your portfolio

I’ve got a property or two. Now I want the next one to actually move the plan forward.What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Equity that isn’t being used, properties bought one at a time without an overall plan, and no clear view of what the next purchase should add.

How we help

We review how your current properties are performing, look at equity and debt strategy with your broker, and model what the next purchase needs to do for your long-term goals.

★★★★★
“I highly recommend Gaurav as his professionalism, communication skills, and his Property Investment Strategies are second to none. … Looking forward to expanding my property investment portfolio with Gaurav’s expert advice.”

3Is this you?

Hit your borrowing limit

The bank says I can’t borrow any more. Is that where my portfolio stops?What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Servicing limits, a property that isn’t performing as it should, and whether your accountant should review how the properties are owned.

How we help

Together with your broker, we look at the whole portfolio: which properties are helping, how the debt is set up, and what kind of next step could fit. Where it makes sense, the plan keeps moving.

What we look at together

  • Portfolio performance
  • Equity
  • Debt strategy
  • Cash flow
  • Rental return
  • Your timeframe
4Is this you?

Investing interstate

Everyone says the opportunity might be interstate. But where, and how do I check it from here?What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Not knowing the area, not being able to inspect it yourself, and wondering who looks after it once you’ve bought.

How we help

We research from state level down to the street, run due diligence on every shortlisted property, and coordinate settlement, the property manager and your first tenant. We buy predominantly in VIC, QLD, WA, NSW and SA.

★★★★★
“Gaurav made it possible for me to be able to invest interstate which I would never have done on my own as I don't have the knowledge or contacts. He made it easy and seamless.”

5Is this you?

Busy and time-poor professionals

I want to invest. I just don’t have spare evenings and weekends to research property.What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Long hours, family commitments and research that never quite gets finished, so the decision keeps being delayed for another year.

How we help

We do the research, shortlisting and due diligence, then bring you a clear recommendation. You make the key decisions; we do the detailed work and keep you updated by phone or video.

★★★★★

6Is this you?

International and expat investors

I live overseas, but I want to keep building wealth back in Australia.What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Time zones, foreign investment rules that change, and not having anyone you trust in Australia.

How we help

We plan with you by video at a time that suits your time zone, explain which property types are generally open to you, and work alongside your lawyer, broker and accountant, then manage settlement and leasing in Australia.

General information only, not legal or tax advice. Your lawyer confirms your position.

7Is this you?

Thinking about building

I like the idea of building an investment property. I just don’t know how, or who to trust.What we often hear in a first conversation

What usually holds people back

Choosing a builder, understanding the contract and inclusions, and keeping track of every stage when you can’t be on site.

How we help

If building fits your plan, we manage it for you: a builder appointed from our researched panel for the outcome you need, the contract reviewed with your solicitor, and every stage overseen through to your first tenant.

Questions

Questions about who we help

Can’t see your situation here? Tell us about it. Every plan is tailored, so the best answer usually comes from a short conversation.

Is Equimax only for experienced investors?

No. Many of our clients are buying their first investment property, and others already own several. What they share is wanting a clear, long-term plan rather than a one-off purchase. We start wherever you are.

Can Equimax help if I’ve reached my borrowing limit?

Often we can help you see a way forward. With your mortgage broker, we review your portfolio, equity, cash flow and debt strategy, and look at whether a different property type or location could fit your plan, and whether your accountant should review how the properties are owned. Your broker confirms what you can borrow; we don’t give finance advice.

I’m time-poor. How involved do I need to be?

You stay in control of the key decisions, and we do the detailed work. After a 60-minute strategy session, we handle the research, shortlisting and due diligence, then bring you a clear recommendation. Updates come by phone, email or video, around your schedule.

Can I work with Equimax if I live overseas?

Yes. We work with Australians living abroad and with overseas investors, by video and at times that suit your time zone. Foreign investment rules depend on your residency and how you buy, so we work alongside your lawyer, who confirms your position before you commit.

What if I fit more than one of these situations?

Most people do. A first-time investor might also be time-poor, or living overseas. That’s why there’s no one-size-fits-all plan: your strategy is built around your whole situation, and we review it with you every year as things change.

Your next step

Tell us where you are. We’ll help you plan what comes next.

Wherever you are on the journey, the first step is the same: a conversation about your goals, your numbers and what’s been holding you back.
