Sure the
property itself needs to be desirable to owner-occupiers and tenants, but
buying in the right location is the most important factor.
Remember…location
does 80% of the heavy lifting of your investment property’s capital growth.
Rental yields
will only get you so far, to build real wealth you need to chase capital growth– and not all locations are created equally.
While getting a
foothold in the market in a cheaper outer suburb can be tempting, price growth
there is likely to take much longer (and be more uncertain) than in a
middle-ring or inner-city locale.
Check out the
data for your chosen suburb to see how the property is likely to improve in
value over the next ten years before you buy.
RealRenta has all the tools that a property manager
has, but at over ¼ the cost of a property manager.
