Buying
strategies
Whether you’re a seasoned investor or a first timer, you’ll be aware of the many different buying strategies. You may want to buy, hold and rent it out, with a view to long term capital growth. Within this strategy, you can have a negatively geared property, a positively geared property or a neutral cash flow property. Or maybe you’ll want to buy, renovate and sell – the flipping option. Or buy, renovate and hold. No matter what strategy you choose, we can support your buying journey.
We can share our knowledge of the property market cycles around the country – yes there are submarkets that you may be better investing your hard-earned cash in. The days of only investing in your own backyard are long gone.
