Hosted by Proverb, The Property Game is a docu-reality series about the gruelling yet rewarding world of the South African property investment industry.

We find out what lead to its success and we get first-hand insight into the highs, the lows, the challenges, and most importantly, how that deal brought the investor closer to financial freedom. Our resident multi-million-rand property investment mentor and guru, Sylvia Milosevic, shares her expert take, and gives advice on the mind-set behind a successful property investor.

In the fifth episode of The Property Game, we meet Thapelo. Thapelo currently works as an aviation mechanic, where he works 12-hour shifts. Even though he enjoys his job, Thapelo decided to start investing in property because he wanted his time back. Thapelo started his property investment journey at the age of twenty-three, where he acquired his first multi-let which cash flowed from day one. He invested in an area where there was a huge demand for this type of accommodation. He is now in the process of expanding his current multi-let which will add more income to his monthly cash flow.   On the personal development front, Sylvia chats about how to nurture self-belief, and how to not only deal with the fear of failure, but to use failure to your advantage when creating success.

Episode 4

In the fourth episode of The Property Game, we meet Doris. Doris left the high paying corporate world for full time property investing. In her first six months of investing in property, she concluded seven deals successfully. She achieved this by acquiring skills and education, as well as being totally present and focussed on what she had set out to achieve. Even when she experienced some challenges on her journey, Doris remained present, and dealt with these challenges as they happened. Today, her time is her own and she gets to spend quality time with her husband and two daughters, which was one of her main objectives when she started her property investment journey. We find out how Doris achieved these successes in such a short period of time.   On the personal development front, Sylvia talks about how being present, after you’ve set your intentions, is a very important key to achieving success. We also get insight into the one very important skill that we need to nurture, if we want to attract anything into our lives.  Doris Mpela – Property Investor  doris@khanyekaconsulting.co.za 

Episode 3

In the third episode of The Property Game, we meet Sweleni. This young lady was born and raised in a rural village in KZN, with little to no economic opportunities, but Sweleni had much bigger dreams for herself and decided to leave her family behind, and take a leap of faith, and relocate to Johannesburg. Whilst unemployed and searching for opportunities, she stumbled upon an advert for a property investment mentorship programme. With no money of her own, she enrolled. She started her property investment journey as an unemployed person, with no affordability at the bank, and not a good credit score. Her strategy was sourcing deals for other property investors who had the means to invest, but not the time. Sweleni shares her journey of highlights, challenges, learnings, and how it has led to her new abundance outlook on life.   On the personal development front Sylvia chats about the power of visualization, and how we, as property investors, can use the challenges that we face, and turn them into wealth creation opportunities.
