Скачать или смотреть Ep. 308: How to Spot Higher-than-Average Growth Markets with Data, with Dr. Mat Djolic

In this episode of Geared for Growth, Mike Mortlock is joined by Dr. Mat Djolic, co-founder of HtAG Analytics, a proptech platform that helps investors and property professionals identify “Higher than Average Growth” locations through advanced data analytics.

With a background in construction, quantity surveying, and a PhD in organisational psychology, Mat brings a rare mix of technical precision and academic depth to how property data can be used to predict growth.

Mike and Mat unpack how data can actually be used to understand property markets, not just for the short-term “hotspot” hype, but to build sustainable, long-term strategies. From affordability and socioeconomics to supply-demand trends and AI, they dive deep into how real insights emerge when you connect data with investor intent.

They also explore why some investors misuse data, the difference between trend recognition and speculation, and why the term “hotspot” might be one of the most misleading concepts in real estate.

If you’ve ever wondered how to interpret property data correctly or how to identify your next investment location based on facts, not forecasts, this episode is essential listening.

What we cover in this episode:
Why data without context can mislead investors
How to build a property investment “research algorithm” that matches your goals
The 3 metrics that most strongly correlate with price growth
Why affordability and socioeconomics are the real drivers of market momentum
How to assess both short-term opportunity and long-term stability
The truth about AI in property prediction (and why it’s not as smart as you think)
Why “hotspot chasing” often costs investors more than it gains
