Adrian ‘Mr. Lambo’ Portelli set to make history on The Block with shock move at 2024 auctions: ‘He has been talking to producers for weeks’
The upcoming Block auction promises to be one that will go down in history.
And it looks like series bidder Adrian Portelli is preparing a bold and groundbreaking move that will leave fans in awe.
A source has exclusively revealed to Ny Breaking Australia that the millionaire entrepreneur plans to buy all five Phillip Island homes at this year’s auction – a first in the show’s long history.
“Rumor has it that Adrian Portelli wants to buy every property,” the insider said.
The source said Portelli is serious about making a statement and cementing his position as The Block’s most powerful buyer.
“He has been talking to the producers about this for weeks and is confident the deal will go through.”
Portelli, who became a household name after his high-profile purchases in previous seasons, is no stranger to turning Block homes into major publicity stunts.
His company, LMCT+, has regularly raffled off homes from the show, including last year purchasing Steph and Gian’s winning home for $5 million.

Portelli is one of Australia’s richest and most famous personalities and has already caused a stir, with sources suggesting he will make a grand entrance at the auction, possibly in his signature Lamborghini.
“With Adrian it’s all about the spectacle,” a close friend told Ny Breaking Australia.
“He loves drama, and this auction will be no exception. He’s ready to steal the show.”
What really draws attention, however, are this year’s house prices.
In a surprise twist, the five renovated properties have been listed with guide prices well below $2 million, a significant drop from last year, when minimum prices ranged between $2.97 million and $3.35 million.
The Block continues Sunday at 7pm on Channel Nine
