Is flipping properties the secret to building wealth? Or is the buy-and-hold strategy the key to long-term success? Mathew Russo thinks he has the answer. A seasoned builder turned property investor, Mat started with renovations and flips, leveraging his construction background to chase big profits. The returns were rewarding, but the 24-hour workdays and constant hustle? Not so much. When their family grew, Mat and his wife knew they had to shift gears. With Dashdot’s help, they adopted a buy-and-hold strategy, securing a property in Bunbury, WA, that gained over $100K in equity within a year. Now, Mat’s growing his portfolio while balancing family dinners, running a business, and keeping his sanity intact. So, if you’ve been wondering whether flipping or holding is the better path to financial freedom, Mat’s hard-earned insights are a must-hear. If you love this episode, email us at
