From Military Service to Property Strategy: How Two Brothers Are Building Financial Freedom for Everyday Australians

Just a few years ago, Jacob and Simon Camilleri were serving Australia in uniform.
Today, the two brothers have redirected their discipline and purpose into a new mission — helping fellow veterans and everyday Australians build long-term wealth through strategic, ethical property investment.
Founded in 2022, JSC Property Investments was born from a bold goal: to generate $1 million in equity for clients within 18 months. They reached that target ahead of schedule — and went on to triple it.
By the end of 2023, JSC clients had amassed more than $3.5 million in equity gains. But it’s not just the headline figures that set this firm apart. It’s the framework behind them. Drawing on their military backgrounds, the Camilleris bring a sense of structure, discipline and accountability to every client relationship.
Rather than chasing speculative gains, JSC takes a measured, data-driven approach. Their strategy is built on suburb-level analytics, conservative lending models, and a long-term buy-and-hold philosophy.
The results speak for themselves: in 2023 alone, clients averaged 29 per cent property growth — significantly outperforming the broader market.
At the core of JSC’s operations is personalisation. Every new client engagement begins with an in-depth consultation, designed to map out financial goals, risk tolerance and lifestyle needs.
From there, Jacob and Simon craft bespoke investment strategies that prioritise financial security and long-term freedom. It’s a partnership model, not a transactional one.
That education-first mindset is also embedded in their broader offering. Jacob’s book, Shortcut to Freedom, outlines the exact framework JSC uses to assess opportunities and manage risk.
The company’s website hosts a growing collection of tools and educational content, aiming to demystify property investing and empower clients to make informed decisions.
The company’s tagline — Your Shortcut to Freedom — isn’t just marketing speak. For the Camilleris, property is a platform for independence. And nowhere is that purpose more evident than in their support for Australia’s veteran community.
Having lived the transition from military to civilian life themselves, Jacob and Simon understand the unique challenges faced by service personnel.
JSC offers tailored support and discounts to both active and former defence members, reinforcing their commitment to advocacy and community support beyond the investment landscape.
That commitment also extends to mental health. JSC proudly backs the Australian Bibliotherapy Foundation — also known as Brothers 'n' Books — a charity using reading and storytelling to support emotional wellbeing and resilience, especially among veterans.
As JSC Property Investments continues to scale, the brothers remain focused on values over volume. Their success has come not through slick campaigns or overblown promises, but through trusted partnerships and measurable results.
In a sector often dominated by noise, JSC offers something different — a clear, principled path to wealth, built on experience, ethics and an unwavering focus on the people they serve.
They’re not just selling property. They’re creating freedom — one investment at a time.
