Building a $100k Passive Income Stream Through Property: The ‘Property Stacking’ Method Explained
What if it actively paid you a salary, delivering $100,000 or more in passive income to your bank account every year?
With the rising cost of living and growing demand for financial freedom, many Australians are looking for smarter ways to generate wealth. But most stop after buying just one property, never reaching the scale needed for long-term, reliable income.
Why?
Because they don’t have a system.
At Positive Real Estate, our coaches teach the Property Stacking Method — a strategic investing framework designed to help Australians build scalable portfolios and generate $100K+ in passive income using equity, cash flow, and smart acquisition strategies.
What is the ‘Property Stacking’ Method?
The Property Stacking Method is not about owning dozens of homes. It’s a proven strategy designed to help investors build a high-performing portfolio where each property fuels the next stage of growth.
In fact, The Property Stacking method is based on three core principles, and it’s how many Australians are now achieving passive income through property.
1. Strategic Acquisition
Every powerful portfolio starts with the right foundational properties. Your first one or two purchases must be located in high-growth suburbs with strong economic fundamentals.
This initial equity growth becomes the launchpad for your entire portfolio. Choosing poorly at this stage can delay wealth creation for years.
2. Equity Recycling
Instead of waiting years to save another deposit, successful investors tap into the equity of their existing property to fund the next.
The technique, known as recycling equity, allows you to expand your portfolio faster and with less reliance on personal savings.
3. Cash Flow Optimisation
As the portfolio grows, the focus shifts to sustainability. Every additional property must be carefully selected to deliver positive or neutral cash flow, ensuring that the portfolio remains self-funding and doesn’t cause financial stress.

From Principles to Portfolio
These three pillars form the “what” of the Property Stacking strategy. But real success lies in knowing the “how”.

How should you structure your loans to recycle equity?
