‘Today’s going to be an absolutely massive day. We are off to Adelaide,’ he said.

‘A lot of people ask me if I can justify the cost of owning a private plane,’ he said while providing an inside view to his lavish lifestyle.  

‘I actually charter the plane out. I don’t like pouring money down the drain. It makes an income for me and I get the convenience out of it. To put in perspective, I was asleep 20 minutes ago. The plane’s due to leave in 10 minutes and I’m pulling in now.’ 

Portelli used his private plane to fly from his home in Melbourne, to Adelaide for the day, and back.  

At the second supermarket he visited, Adrian said that he had handed out a total of $150,000 to the large crowds of families that he filmed in time lapse videos. 

Coles and Woolworths, ‘s two biggest supermarket chains, are currently facing court over allegations they intentionally misled customers with fake discounts.

Despite the happy music being played over Portelli’s video of the queues snaking around the Port Adelaide store — the footage also showed the sheer volume of ns willing to line up in the middle of a work day for one of the billionaire’s handouts. 

The upcoming Block auction is already shaping up to be one for the history books.

TV insiders have revealed how billionaire entrepreneur Portelli is gearing up to make an unprecedented move that could rewrite the show’s history.

‘The word is Adrian Portelli has his sights set on buying every single property,’ the insider disclosed.

The source said Portelli is serious about making a statement and cementing his position as The Block’s most powerful buyer.

‘He’s been talking to the producers about this for weeks and is very confident the deal will go through.’

Portelli, who became a household name after his high-profile purchases on previous seasons, is no stranger to turning Block homes into major publicity stunts.

His company, LMCT+, has frequently raffled off properties from the show, including last year’s $5 million purchase of Steph and Gian’s winning home. 

The millionaire entrepreneur is planning to purchase all five of the Phillip Island homes at this year’s auction for a whopping $15million – a first in the show’s long-running history

While the initial winner of the raffle chose a $2.5 million cash prize over the property, the house was eventually awarded to Bryan, a 42-year-old from Victoria, during a re-raffle in July.

A close friend of Portelli’s told Daily Mail , ‘Adrian is keen to snap them all up. He’s not just in this to win one house – he’s aiming to take them all and then flip them for his business. It would be the biggest single sale in Block history.’

‘He loves the drama, and this auction will be no exception,’ the friend added. ‘He’s ready to steal the show.’

What makes his potential purchase even more striking is the uniform price guide for all five homes. 

The properties have been listed with price guides between $1.7 million and $1.85 million—a significant drop from last year’s season, where reserve prices ranged from $2.97 million to $3.35 million.
