  • Money and Me: Landlords are becoming co-living operators
    2026/04/10

    What if your property could double its yield - without buying another one?

    We explore how Singapore landlords are transforming single-tenant homes into co-living cashflow machines.

    From landed properties in Pasir Panjang to city-fringe condos, hear how investors are unlocking 4% to 7% yields.

    But behind the numbers lie real trade-offs - renovation costs, tenant turnover, and operational complexity.

    We break down whether outsourcing to operators like Bespoke Habitat is the key to making it work.

    Is co-living a smart structural shift or a yield-chasing trend?

    Hosted by Michelle Martin with Josephine Liu and Arthur Lim.

  • Money and Me: Investors and North Asia Edge
    2026/04/06

    What if the next big investment opportunity isn’t in the US, but right next door in Asia where much of AI's backbone is being built?

    We zoom in on the “Golden Triangle” of Japan, South Korea and Taiwan, and why this region could power the next phase of global growth.

    From Japan’s corporate reforms to Korea’s semiconductor cycle and Taiwan’s dominance in advanced chips, the story is bigger than just tech hype.

    We also explore where the real AI opportunities lie - from data centres to cybersecurity - after the recent market pullback.

    And what about risks like currency swings and geopolitical tensions - are investors being paid enough to take them?

  • Money and Me: The transformations ahead for Agentic AI and real estate
    2026/04/02

    AI is getting cheaper, smarter - and possibly reshaping everything from property to portfolios.

    In this episode, hosted by Michelle Martin, we discuss the implications of agentic AI on real estate and what AI commoditisation could shift power towards - platforms, data, or distribution?

    Then we look closely at China’s rapid AI deployment and ask if it gives them a lasting edge, or if the US still dominates the core technology stack.

  • Money and Me: Paring risk as the Straits of Hormuz remains closed
    2026/04/01

    Wall Street explodes higher as hopes of a U.S.-Iran de-escalation sparked a powerful relief rally across global markets.

    But with the Strait of Hormuz still constrained, energy supply risks remain dangerously real beneath the surface.

    Are markets transitioning into a new, more volatile regime?

    Also, it is getting harder to figure out interest rate direction.

    What does a “trapped Fed” mean when inflation stays high but growth weakens?

    Michelle Martin explores what this means for your portfolio with Simon Ree, Founder, Tao of Trading.

  • Money and Me: $1,900 psf & the Safe-Haven SG Surge. Where is a smart bet in SG property today?
    2026/03/31

    Michelle Martin chats with the Chairman of real estate agency Crestbrick for insights into today's valuable property and prospects for future gains.

    A sold-out launch in Tampines and rising global uncertainty are reshaping how investors view property.

    Rivelle Tampines’ rapid sales at nearly $1,900 psf raise questions about affordability, demand, and the evolving upgrader market.

    Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are driving relocation interest into Singapore, reinforcing its appeal as a safe-haven destination.

    We explore what could trigger temporary renters to become long-term property investors - and what that means for yields.

    The AI revolution is quietly transforming demand for office, residential, and industrial space, with winners and losers emerging.

    And with Singapore’s aging population, the very definition of “prime property” may be shifting in ways investors can’t ignore.
