Chris Gray

Chris Gray is host of “Your Property Empire” on Sky Business News and a property buyer’s agent for over two decades, Chris has helped countless Australians buy property.

His contrarian approach to investing and buying strategies grounded in logic and backed by independent valuations ensure clients never overpay for a property, even by $1.

Chris is not only a TV host, speaker and author, but also a respected property buyer’s agent providing end-to-end services for time poor professionals and a successful investor himself with a portfolio valued in excess of circa $25m.

At the age of 22 Chris Gray began his journey investing in real estate with a deposit of $35,000. By age 31, Chris had turned his initial deposit into a $3.5m property portfolio and left his full-time job as an accountant at Deloitte’s for semi-retirement. Since then he has more than tripled his personal portfolio to well over $15m and now builds property portfolios for time-poor professionals through his Buyers Agency ‘Your Empire’, searching, negotiating and renovating on their behalf.

Chris features in major business press and newspapers and was also the Property Expert on Channel 9’s ‘MyHome’ and most recently seen on ‘60 Minutes’ and guest judge on Channel 10’s ‘The Renovators’.
