Our Process

Initial Call

When we have our first call, we want to understand your unique situation and goals. We'll have a chat about what's important for you to achieve your financial and lifestyle aspirations. This conversation sets the groundwork for designing a customised investment strategy that meets your specific needs. Additionally, we'll provide you with an overview of our company and the services we offer because it's essential to ensure a good fit between us.

Education Session

We will have one-on-one meetings with you to teach you about basic investing concepts and give you updates on how the top real estate markets in Australia are doing. This education will help you make informed decisions about your investments and keep you in the loop about market trends and indicators so you can spot good opportunities. We're all about making sure you have the knowledge and resources to succeed with your investments and reach your financial goals.

Strategy Session

This strategy session focuses on helping clients understand the true cost of owning an investment property by crunching real numbers. We guide clients through the process of calculating important financial metrics such as rental yields, capital growth potential, and cash flow analysis. We also help clients understand the various expenses involved in property ownership, such as property management fees, maintenance costs, and mortgage payments. Our aim is to empower clients with the knowledge and tools they need to make informed investment decisions that align with their financial goals.

Strategic Implementation

After we have developed a customised investment strategy for you, we will work with you to ensure that your goals and objectives are being met in the most effective way possible. You will be fully briefed on all aspects of the investment before proceeding so that you feel comfortable with the process. This is the stage where we turn your plan into a reality and set you on the path to building wealth and achieving financial freedom.

Due Diligence

We prioritize conducting strict due diligence before finalizing any investment decisions with our clients and dedicate a one-hour meeting to ensure that clients fully understand the investment and its potential benefits and risks. During this meeting, we review all aspects of the investment opportunity, including the financials, expected equity, rental yields, and the client's overall budget and investment goals. Our investment experts believe that informed investment decisions are essential for success, and we strive to empower clients with the knowledge and understanding they need to make sound choices.

5/5
I had no real prior knowledge on how to enter the property market prior to meeting Trent, he has discussed everything in detail and makes the process seamless. I have worked with Trent closely since April 2022, he has provided me with resources and a strong education towards purchasing my first investment property. Trent works really closely with his clients and ensures everything will benefit the person purchasing without any stress. I would highly recommend having a call to understand your situation and see what could work for you.
Nick
I cannot recommend Trent and the Carters team any higher! I went from having absolutely no knowledge about realestate and investment properties to having a great level of understanding with Trent's guidance. Trent has helped through every step of the process from initial discussions to a finished build, holding my hand and putting up with a lot of calls and questions along the way! With Trent's guidance it made me realise how much more attainable property investing is and I honestly just wish I bit the bullet and did this years ago!
Carl
For a little less than a year now, Trent has been assisting me with my real estate investments. He has taught me how to invest wisely during this time to get the best return in the shortest amount of time. I was successful in purchasing my second property, a land house development, and I have already witnessed an increase in its value. We are now investigating how to get the third. Throughout this adventure, Trent has been extremely approachable and a great communicator while keeping a high degree of professionalism. I cannot recommend Trent highly enough and look forward to building and expanding my portfolio with his guidance in the future.
Bradley
In 2022, Trent assisted me to purchase my first investment property. Trent is an excellent advisor and mentor who consistently demonstrates his technical knowledge and practical wisdom in property acquisition and investment. He analyses and explains potential investment opportunities in a sophisticated, yet easy to understand manner (with a detailed financial analysis for those interested in the numbers!) and is always available for administrative support. I have grown significantly in my confidence in approaching property investment under Trent’s tutelage.
David
I reached out to Trent at Carters Investments early last year for advice and help on buying my first investment property. He’s worked closely with me ever since to help find the right interstate house for me to purchase which is now beginning construction. He’s given good consultation, advice and ideas based on his own successes with property investing. Thanks for your help mate!
Daniel
Trent was a great help in starting me on my own investment portfolio. He has been very thorough in the information he has provided. Trent has amazing contacts to help with purchasing a property. This made it even easier to get myself started. Would recommend to anyone looking to buy realestate as I already have with friends and family.
Damien
Our association with Trent has been extremely productive, he gave us a lot of sound advice and linked us up with builders able to offer us houses either in the later stages of being built or council approved plans, giving us a decent head-start with our investment strategy, houses we would never have found on our own. Trent has a strong network of contacts for building and finance and knows the industry well, minimising costs such as stamp duty and negotiating with builders on our behalf. 5 stars!
