All About Property

I have now discussed investing in property at some length and now you must ask yourself this question, “Do I invest in property or don’t I.”

As I have previously mentioned it is not difficult; with the right information and the right strategy you could confidently take the right action and become an astute property investor and begin the journey towards creating wealth and more importantly a recurring income.

As Robert Kiyosake in the book ‘Rich Dad Poor Dad’ says; “You don’t work for the money; the money works for you”

The sooner you invest, the more profound the compounding impact
of your portfolio will be. When you study compound interest you will be amazed how it works. As we know property doubles every 7 to 10 years, so you might as well use it to your advantage.

If I asked you this question;

“Would you prefer to get $1 million now or 1 cent that doubled everyday for a month” What would you answer?

The result of 1 cent doubling over 30 days is $5,368,709.12. That is the power of compound interest.

While most investors read a book or two, do a little research and then buy one of the first properties they come across, strategic investors are smarter than that. They follow a system that is rooted in the real world and has stood the test of time and the changing markets.

So what does an astute property investor look for in a good investment property?

1. Genuine and sustained growth drivers
2. A rental yield, which matches the investor’s required cash-flows
3. Tight vacancy rates
4. A quality target tenant pool

You are probably aware that the property market is over-heated at the moment, so it is probably not the best time to buy. However, if it is your need to do this right now, it is better than not doing it at all.

I do not relate to the word retirement, as I cannot see myself not helping and assisting people grow their wealth through property.

But, if that is your goal, what does retirement look like?

Start with the end in mind. Holidays, restaurants, travel, hobbies etc.

How much income per annum per week do you need in retirement?

$1.5M invested at 4% gives you an income of $60,000. Is that enough?

I have read that Super saved over 12-15 years is spent in 6 years, so how would that leave you?

As you would have read before I am totally biased towards property as over the past 40 years I have seen what it can achieve for people. It always gave me pleasure in knowing that whatever property I sold someone that it would double it’s value in 7 to 10 years.

So how do you intend to get to that magical number that you have in mind for yourself?

I say, make property work for you, not you work for the property and plan ahead.

Look at where you are, think about where you want to be, and set a course that will help you reach your destination.

For example, experts say that in this economy it takes about six investment properties to achieve financial freedom.

If you purchase wisely, across a number of marketplaces, with generous buffers and quality insurance in place you’ll not only take advantage of the great wealth creation that property investing is, you’ll hedge against falling values by keeping your portfolio diversified.

Don’t be afraid to ask for help
. You “don’t know what you don’t know.” That’s why it’s important to ask for help from people who are where you want to be, such as active and experienced property investors.

Hint: People LOVE to share what they know. Don’t you?

It may sound like I am going on about this stuff, but I also know that 85% of all Australians retire on less than $35,000 and I do not want that for YOU!
