Build a Property Portfolio That Grows With Strategy, Not Guesswork.

I’m Alan Dean. I help people build income-producing property portfolios using innovative structures, disciplined planning, and data-backed decisions.

A strategist who actually understands property and how to scale it.

Why Clients Choose GetInvested

Most investors fail because they chase the wrong suburb, follow social media hype, or buy without a strategy.
They don't fail from lack of effort, they fail because their plan has no structure, no sequence, and no risk controls.

GetInvested fixes that.

I help everyday people build portfolios designed to:
• Be positioned for strong tenant demand
• Grow to a plan, not a guess
• Target positive cashflow, modelled and stress tested before you buy
• And compound year after year

My approach blends:
• Portfolio architecture
• Finance structure mapping
• Risk management
• Property selection filters
• Cashflow modelling
• Long-term planning

This isn't about hotspots, luck, or blind optimism.
It's about building an asset base that actually works.

Getting Into Property With Way Less Than $100K: Here’s How

Watch how everyday Aussies are breaking into property without massive savings.
Simple strategy. Real results.

REAL STRATEGIES. REAL OUTCOMES.

These examples demonstrate how structured property strategies can create value. And how disciplined analysis helps avoid costly mistakes.
Every opportunity is evaluated through planning controls, feasibility modelling and demand analysis before a recommendation is made.

CASE STUDY 1
STRATEGY BREAKDOWN

1. Opportunity Identified
1,020m² block with subdivision potential overlooked by most buyers.

2. Zoning Verified
Local planning controls confirmed a clean 1→2 subdivision was permissible.

3. Feasibility Tested
Civil works and subdivision costs modelled before acquisition.

4. Subdivision Executed
New rear lot created while retaining the existing dwelling.

5. Equity Created
Combined value increased to $935K, generating $235K in additional equity.

CASE STUDY 2
Duplex development

1. Site Sourced
950m² block in a high-demand family suburb.

2. Development Potential Confirmed
Zoning allowed duplex construction.

3. Build Feasibility Verified
Build cost verified across multiple builders.

4. Development Executed
Efficient duplex design maximised land use and rental appeal.

5. Value Uplift Created
Completed value $1.345M, producing $320K equity uplift.

CASE STUDY 3
A Development Deal We Advised a Client NOT to Buy

At first glance this property appeared to be a strong development opportunity.

Large block.
Good suburb.
Strong resale market.

However, after running our feasibility analysis we identified several planning and infrastructure issues that significantly reduced the project's viability.

What We Found

• Drainage easement affecting build area
• Higher than expected civil works costs
• Planning restrictions limiting the build envelope

The Revised Numbers

Total project cost: $1.41M
Estimated end value: $1.38M

The project would likely have resulted in a loss once holding and selling costs were included.

The Outcome

We advised the client not to proceed.

Protecting clients from poor investments is just as important as finding good ones.

Getting Started: The Steps

Step 1: Book the Call

We look at your numbers, your goals, and what you’re actually trying to build to see if you qualify for the Strategy Deep-Dive.

Step 2: Get Your Plan

If it’s the right fit, we build a clear, personalised roadmap, define the lending structure and sequencing, and determine whether you’re suitable for value-add or development opportunities.
Book a Strategy Call

STEP 3: EXECUTE THE PLAN

We source the right deal whether that’s a cash-flow property, a value-add purchase, or a vetted development site and make sure the structure supports long-term growth.

No hype. No guesswork. Just a clear path to building a portfolio that pays you.

When the structure is right, investors can make clearer decisions and avoid costly sequencing mistakes.
These examples illustrate the kinds of outcomes a disciplined strategy can support. Individual results vary.

3–6 months

Strategy, finance structure and the first purchase, then verification, settlement and setup.

Less guesswork. Your first purchase modelled properly: cashflow, costs and risks assessed before you commit, so the foundation is one you understand.

6–12 months

The first property beds in and we track the real numbers.

We model the expected cashflow position before you buy and stress test it against rates, vacancy and holding costs. The aim is a position you can hold comfortably, not a number anyone can promise.

18–24 months

The first proper portfolio review.

Rent performance, equity, DTI and refinance options are checked against the plan. Combined rent and any capital growth depend on the asset, the market and your holding costs, so we measure them rather than assume them.

2–5 years

A portfolio built in the right sequence, with each purchase assessed against your borrowing capacity, DTI and cashflow position at the time. How far and how fast depends on your income, equity, lender policy and the market, so we plan it rather than promise it.

3–6 months

First property secured with the right finance structure. No guesswork. No stress. Just smart moves.

6–12 months

Cashflow modelled and stress tested before you buy. The aim is a position you can hold, not a number anyone can promise.

18–24 months

The first proper portfolio review. Rent, equity, DTI and refinance options measured against the plan, not assumed.

2–5 years

A portfolio built in sequence, each purchase assessed against your capacity, DTI and cashflow at the time. Planned, not promised.

ABOUT ME

Alan Dean

Founder, GetInvested

I don't trade theories, I build portfolios.

I grew a $10M+ property portfolio from the ground up using one thing:
A strategy that actually works in the real world.
Now I help everyday Aussies apply the same disciplined approach. My background gives clients practical insight into finance structure, risk, sequencing and property decision-making. Your outcome will depend on your own circumstances, borrowing capacity, property selection and market conditions.

I source the right properties, structure the finance for you. And guide you through the same disciplined steps I've used for my own portfolio and with hundreds of clients.

I'm not an "influencer coach" or a traditional agent.
I'm the guy people come to when they're done wasting time. And ready to build something real.

If you're ready to move from interest to action, I'll show you how.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

No. Most of our clients start with far less than they think many under $80K–$120K depending on the strategy.

The key isn’t the size of your deposit; it’s the structure, your borrowing power, and selecting the right deal.

That’s why the first step is running your real numbers, not guessing.

Happens all the time. Banks say “no” when the structure is wrong not because the client can’t invest.

We look at second-tier lenders, smarter finance setups, and borrowing strategies most people never hear about.

If there’s a path forward, we’ll find it.

Most clients secure a deal within 15–30 days after their plan is complete.

The rest is settlement and setup.

When your numbers and strategy are tight from day one, things move fast.

No. We run everything through a cash-flow-first filter if it drains your pocket, it doesn’t make the shortlist.

Every deal is tested against rent, repayments, buffers, and long-term sustainability before we ever present it.

Honest answer: no one can tell you a number upfront, and you should be wary of anyone who does. Returns depend on your borrowing capacity, deposit, the property, rents, rates, costs and the market. What we do instead is model your numbers before you commit: expected rent, holding costs, interest rate stress tests and the assumptions behind any value-add work, so you can see the realistic range for your situation and decide with the risks on the table. General information only. This does not take into account your objectives, financial situation or needs.

We source off-market, pre-market, and on-market opportunities using strict criteria:

• cash-flow positive
• strong rental demand
• low vacancy
• growth drivers
• development or value-add potential

You’re not guessing on realestate.com we do the heavy lifting and filter out the garbage.

No. We handle the strategy, structure, sourcing, checks, numbers, and negotiation.

You make the decisions we manage the process.

This is done with you, not to you.

You’ll know the exact cost before you commit no hidden fees, no surprises.

Most clients recover the fee multiple times over from cash flow, equity, and avoiding bad decisions.

We focus on ROI, not charging for the sake of it.

Every investment has risk but we reduce it through:

• strict deal selection
• structure-first finance
• stress-tested numbers
• multiple buffers
• long-term planning

We don’t chase hotspots or hype.
We build stable, reliable income first.

Yes if the structure is right.

Most of our clients build 3–5 properties within 2–5 years because we focus on:

• cash flow
• equity recycling
• smart lending sequences
• controlled development options

A full portfolio isn’t luck it’s sequencing.

Buyer’s agents find properties.

We build portfolios strategy, structure, sequencing, and sourcing.

They find a house.

We create a plan that builds wealth.

All deals are stress-tested at higher rates before you buy.

If it only works at today’s rate, we don’t touch it.

We analyse:

• cash flow
• equity potential
• supply/demand pressure
• infrastructure
• rental data
• suburb risk profile

This is a numbers business, not a hope-and-pray business.

No. You need discipline and a plan  the money habits follow the structure.

Good  you’re ahead.

We optimise your current structure, free up capacity, and expand from there.

Yes  with the right lender strategy.

We work with self-employed clients all the time.

Yes  for qualified clients.

We source, run feasibility, and manage the risk properly.

Every property goes through valuation checks, rent comparisons, local sales data, and negotiation frameworks.

If the numbers don’t stack, we walk.

Sometimes depends on severity and timeframe.

We can review your file and tell you exactly what’s possible.

There isn’t one.

You still need to take action we just remove the guesswork.

This is the step that turns interest into real progress.
