Positive Real Estate

I was a contract mortgage broker for Positive Real Estate for a number of years working mainly with Victorian clients. It was fantastic working alongside an amazing team of people who have clients interests and futures firmly at heart and i learned so much for my own investing. Although not directly working with PRE anymore I still will work… Read more

for many of the clients. As i have been through a few property cycles almost all clients have made significant wealth in property and are now living their best lives.

I feel lucky in my career to have had that experience working alongside such a dynamic company and do not have one hesitation in recommending PRE.

Loved the recent pop up mentoring evening here in Hobart. Have missed Carolyn Weston and her team. Would love to see you all back again soon! Always learn so much from these events and love talking with the other clients about what they are doing and the success they are having!

Highly recommend Positive Real Estate – My husband and I had been trying to get into property investing for a long time. Finding the PRE team four years ago was just what we needed. We have found the team to be trustworthy and professional at all times. We have benefited from the whole PRE team which have a wide range of expertise in all aspects of property investing from… Read more

informational zoom meetings, Carolyn our coach, Esther in Finance, Amanda and Mel are our property experts, Lila and the team are in contract management, the solicitors and many more experts in their field, it really is a one stop shop with dedicated experts which have been fantastic in taking the worry out of investing in property and equipping us with a wealth of information, and they have given us the confidence to purchase our first brand new property which is currently rented and another property which is being built this year. Having Carolyn as our coach has been amazing she is very helpful and knowledgeable and anytime we have a had any questions we can text her and organise a zoom or phone call and she has steered us in the right direction with her valuable advice. Anything from finding the property to getting finance, problem solving and most importantly helping us avoid any pitfalls along the way. If only we found these guys 20 years ago.

Secured my second property through Positive Real Estate, there was a few hiccups but they helped me overcome them – I signed up with Positive Real Estate back in 2020, Keshav and Riley helped me find a property within my buying range, off the plan. By the time completion came, my financial situation had changed and the banks did not want to lend me money, even though I had put down 5% deposit. Riley and Robert got to work and helped me find lending in time for… Read more ·  1

settlement. They went above and beyond to make sure I secured the property, and by the time settlement came the property increased by $50,000. Their expertise showed, with the equity gained in the right suburb and their tactics to help secure the property even when the banks were against me.

A big thanks to the team at Positive Real Estate, not only was it Riley and Robert that helped me, but the whole team got involved to make sure I didnt lose this investment. Now we are setting plans in motion to secure my next one! Thanks again guys, I learnt alot in this process and it was great to have professionals with me every step of the way.

PRE delivers the positive in real estate – PRE envisioned a future for us we didn’t think was possible. From our first interactions with them, they helped us see how, with some effort on our part, we could actually own multiple properties in blue-chip locales around Australia. The strength of their oft-cited 6-star team really came to the fore when it came time to settle on our first… Read more ·  1

property recently. We felt very supported in the process and always had someone who’d answer our questions.

Of course, settlement was only the culmination of a process that began two years ago with mapping our long-term strategy with our fantastic coach, Vicky Hines. Her on-going empathetic, calm and insightful guidance has been invaluable to us. Amanda Alba always lent us her property selection acumen whenever we’ve had to make decisions on which one to select. Rounding out the superstar team from PRE, Joanne O’Halloran and Lila Ghani, are rock-solid pillars of support in seeing a property purchase through to completion. PRE also plugs you into a network of support including finance, legal, accountancy, tax and property management - ensuring that you never miss a detail that might have easily slipped had we had to manage everything on our own.

PRE has never promised a get-rich-quick path to property riches, nor said that it would require no effort on our part. Indeed, the rallying cry has always been, “it’s a marathon, not a sprint.” But what we have come to appreciate is how our own efforts multiplied by PRE’s deep bench of experience and expertise can cut through the confusion that surrounds property investment and help lay down a framework, customised to your circumstances, that should eventually see you become a successful property investor.

Overcome Analysis Paralysis – Thanks to the support of my mentor Carolyn Weston and the team at positive realestate I was able to start my property investment journey with ease and confidence.

Positive Real Estate Team are the BEST! – Highly recommend the Positive Real Estate team. Knowledgeable, professional and experienced people who have been working and investing in property for years successfully.

Great exposure – Just started the journey with Positive with Carolyn as my mentor and have been to their Property summit. It is quite overwhelming with info but I trust that I am in good hands. Carolyn has been great to reassure that she will be available to guide me along this journey. The summit has been a good exposure to like minded people.

Not worth it – The properties they encourage you to buy are the ones their vendors sell. Huge conflict of interest that isn't advertised or made clear.

Free Spreadsheet scam – Fill in your details for free spreadsheet. Click accept no spread sheet just a way to get your details. Stay away from the [Content Removed]

Keep away from this lot! – Three property's after 7 years I'm still $189,000 in negative equity across the 3 properties. The smallest rip would be 20k and the largest $125,000. The negative equity is one thing but the cost to carry has at times been debilitating. So you may be one of the lucky ones, but if it goes pear shaped on you, don't expect any help from these guys.… Read more

They did offer a meeting I thought to try and find a solution. But [Name Removed] just shrugged his shoulders, stating "I can't make the market go up or down" not my fault! then blamed a rouge franchisee, so where was their due diligence and oversight? People come to organisations like this hoping to avoid these situations, yet we paid deluxe for this privilege. All care NO responsibility

Awesome experience – Great weekend. Did get a lot of takeouts Wasn’t really all I wanted with 27 goal plan and some references didn’t make sense for NZ

Seeing Results – Fantastic, digestible information each seminar. We have already applied a lot of the techniques discussed in our financial life and have benefited from the great results.

Peace of mind investing – Carolyn and the wider support team do an amazing job securing your investment properties from selecting, financing all the way through to keys and property management selection.

A company there to hold your hand, educate and support – Working with the Positive Real Estate team has given up the confidence and education to invest in property and has allowed us to access quality properties that would not have been available to us if investing on our own. Our mentor - Carolyn Weston, provides awesome support. Highly recommend the PRE team to help hold your hand when you made these big investment decisions.

Exceptional experience – My experience with PRE, Carolyn and Amanda have been exceptional. I joined them after a recommendation from a work colleague. Carolyn has been a great mentor while Amanda has found the perfect property. They have been very helpful and understanding while guiding me through my first investment property. Outstanding communication while making the… Read more

process easy and smooth. Looking forward to learning more and purchasing more investments with their guidance.

My experience with Positive Real Estate in my property investment journey – Positive Real estate is the source of information and inspiration in my property investment Journey. The six-star due diligence team are second to none. I have been with then more than 3 years. I felt I have to be with them long ago. I have secured 3 properties from PRE and all are doing well. Out of three the boutique ARIA apartments is doing above and beyond. Great team, great service.

Super Helpful – The Positive Real Estate Team have been really great and helpful. Robert has been my investment coach and always been happy to answer my questions in an easy to understand way. I have nothing bad to say about them, its been great working with them and looking forward to continuing with them Show reply

Was great to work with everyone involved to the end – All parties that were recommended by PRE have been easy to work with at a professional level. Most of all, a big thanks to the PRE team through the whole process. You all made the process a lot easier.

The best support to have me achieve my dreams – I have been with PRE for over 10 years, I have just settled on my 3rd investment property. I realised talking to Vicky (my Coach) that PRE has always been so welcoming and have given me the tools and proven that ANYONE can be a property investor. Thank you Positive Real Estate for giving me the tools, knowledge and connections to make this happen. Show reply

Brilliant team, full of experts! – As someone who thought I knew everything about property, investing and real estate; I was rather skeptical about joining PRE. However I wished I joined sooner! They have expert members on their team who specialise in property selection, economics, demographics and property coaches to guide you through the process - shout out to Carolyn for her… Read more ·  1

coaching. And all the contracts, legal and admin team (especially Joanne!) make signing the contracts, paying deposits, pre-settlement checks and finally settlement sooo easy and stress-free. Definitely worth the investment into the PRE Lift Membership. A good long term investment.

Outstanding service – Carolyn, Louise and Joanne were outstanding with their help and advice through the whole process. We cannot stress enough that we could not have achieved settling on 2 properties at the same time without their help, guidance and good humour! Thanks to the whole PRE team! Show reply

Big Thankyou to team at Positive Real Estate – Hi, I live in Brisbane and work as an Admin Officer. I have recently purchased an investment property in Brookfield, VIC. Thanks to Sharen Carruthers for coaching, Bradley Tefft for helping me in finance and Hayley Beavis for selecting a right property. Show reply

Regretted for not joining early BUT it's never too late – Just a quick message to express my appreciation to Louise Carr and Hayley Beavis for all the help and guidance. Secured my 2nd property and I couldn't have done it without your help. You guys are awesome! Show reply

Best money I’ve invested – Joining with PRE and having Sharen as our coach has given us the confidence to start our investing journey. Sharen has helped me in making informed decisions backed by a team with years of experience, data and a community of like minded people I feel the goals in which I have set are going to be achievable. Show reply

Big value worth the visit – Go visit them and you see what I mean. They will work hard for you and make it worth while Show reply

6* team – A massive thank you to my coach Jarred Redmond, Amanda alba, and my 6* team for understanding my situation putting a plan together and then executing it, very professional and thorough.The support and knowledge that my team offer's is second to none. To be able to break it all down so I could fully understand it as well, a truly rewarding and… Read more ·  1

fulfilling experience. Thank you so much for securing my first investment, couldn't have done it without you.

Support – Positive Real Estate continue to perform at their best. During the uncertain times of covid and banks doing what they do best, PRE's constant work and support made that ordeal workable. More recently, their communication and follow up in securing the return of my initial deposit was outstanding. I thoroughly recommend Positive Real Estate for their knowledge and support to anyone considering investing in property. Show reply

10 Stars – Just wanted to give a public review about my fantastic experience with PRE! A few weeks ago we managed to settle on a 2 bedder in the Sparkes Chermside developemnt in Brisbane! It was no easy feat though and this was no fault of PRE's, With delays in title registrations due to COVID and floods in South Queensland/Nth NSW and some changes in our… Read more ·  1

circumstances we had an uphill battle to get the deal over the line, it felt a bit like murphys law where everything that could go wrong was going wrong, including an incorrectly auto generated aproval letter from the bank........

Joanne, Amanda and Jarred, my team within PRE went well and truley above and beyond to support us through a very difficult couple of weeks, multiple phone calls a day, with time running out on our finance clause we got the approval and then settlement with an hour to spare! For starters, if it wasnt for the education from the team at PRE I would not have even had a finance clause in my contarct to protect our deposit.

We managed to purchase this property in October 2021 for $467k a fantastic price point AT AROUND $5000 PER square metre. A price you just wont find any where these days for a brand new apartment in Brissy. Fast forward to July 2022, not even 12 months and the price of the apartment is already into the 600k's goes to show they negotiate great prices for their clients in areas that produce capital growth!

At 25 they have helped me build a portfolio worth today over 1mill, no way I would have been able to do it without a 6 star team around me.

Can't speak highly enough of PRE, my story just goes to show what having a great team around you can do. Thanks guys we really appreciate you!

Knowledge is a power – I have learnt so many things from Positive Real estate via mentoring which is really important for me to be successful investor. Thank you Positive Real Estate.

Great service in good times and bad – I've purchased two properties through PRE over the past 5 years. My third was due to be completed and unfortunately I couldn't secure a loan due to reduced pandemic income. Thankfully PRE was there and with their amazing customer database found a happy new buyer. Saved my bacon! Show reply
