  • Propertology Hall of Fame Dud

    A relentless one trick promoter of lemon properties in regional AU, an otherwise quality pod chose the wrong “expert” Simon Pressley of Propertology

    The service is a thumping dud and lost instant credibility for any presenter who invites this guy onto the show

  • Interview with Simon Pressley

    It was so good to have an interviewee that didn’t merely just agree with Chris and Veronica. Was getting very boring listening to the hosts personal investment views that are made to sound like fact and that they are the only opinion and ways of doing things.
