The Block 2025: What Went Wrong with Daylesford’s $3M Homes?

What happens when reality TV forgets real-world numbers? In this episode, Lloyd Edge breaks down The Block’s Daylesford auctions to reveal what every serious property investor can learn from the $3M listings that struggled to sell.

From overpriced reserves to risky suburb choices, Lloyd and Armando unpack how data, demand, and due diligence must always come before design. They also explore the real consequences of chasing trends, relying on tax perks, and ignoring the fundamentals that drive long-term growth.

Whether you watch The Block for entertainment or education, this episode separates the screen drama from the numbers that matter.
