THINK AHEAD
The first stage on your journey to investing wisely involves doing some advance thinking:
- Know your goals and risk tolerance – your goals, timing and your appetite for risk will determine your choice of investment
- Understand risk and return – risk is the chance an investment won’t give you the outcomes you hope for
Buying a property to rent out is a popular form of investment. Houses and units are easier to understand than many other types of investments, yet they do have some issues you need to be aware of.
Before you enter the property market, check if this type of long-term investment suits you.
