Would You Rather Own 1 Great Property Or 12 Average Ones? | FUNdamental Fridays

Is owning more investment properties always better?

Not necessarily.

In this week's FUNdamental Friday, Ben Kingsley sits down with Lachlan Delhunty from The Folio Group to discuss one of the biggest misconceptions in property investing:

The belief that more properties automatically means more wealth.

Lachlan shares a real-world example of an investor who accumulated 12 properties across four years, only to discover the portfolio wasn't producing the results they expected.

They discuss:

✅ Quality vs quantity in property investing
✅ Why equity matters more than property count
✅ The risks of aggressive portfolio building
✅ Negative equity and misleading valuations
✅ Why exit strategies matter
✅ The dangers of investor-only markets
✅ Interest rates, cash flow buffers and risk management

Because property investing isn't about collecting houses.

It's about building wealth.
