In this episode, we’re joined by Dr. Daniel Lamp, a General Practitioner and the host of Passive Income Doctor Podcast. Dr. Lamp shares his journey of building a property portfolio from scratch, starting with a modest $70k salary and growing it to 11 properties.

Dr. Lamp breaks down how he scaled his portfolio in the early years by focusing on smart investments instead of relying on outdated advice, why selling one property enabled him to buy eleven more, and how structuring investments through trusts gave him the ability to unlock more lending power.

He also discusses the key lessons he learned from buying his first property at 23, how he navigated the challenges of a changing property market, and why he believes patience and a strategic mindset are essential for long-term success in property investing.

If you want to learn the strategies that allowed a doctor to build wealth despite a low salary, understand how to leverage trust structures for property success, or discover the truth about scaling a portfolio in today’s market, then make sure to listen to this episode!
