The $200,000,000 Man! How He Built A Property Empire From Scratch!



This just might be one of the biggest episodes in Pizza and Property history...


We've never had a guest on the podcast with this much experience and a portfolio this large!


This is a special episode for more than a few reasons, and it's a pleasure to welcome our guest for today's episode, Theo Maras.



Property developer, investor, as well as one of the richest people in Adelaide! 


Theo Maras shares his 70+ years of experience; starting out renovating homes with his wife Helen to building a portfolio of highrise buildings worth well into the hundreds of millions! 💰


A few of the topics we'll be discussing:


- What strategies did he employ early on to build the property empire that he has today?


- How did he manage risk on such a monumental scale?


- How does he finance deals worth tens / hundreds of millions of dollars?


- How important is the right partner, and what does he look for in one?

And so much more!


No matter what stage of your property investing journey you're on, this is an episode you'll want to break out a notepad for and listen to more than once!
