Why Smart Investors are Gearing Up Right Now

5845

Interest rates are still relatively high, so why are experienced investors getting themselves ready to buy property and arranging their finance now?

It’s because savvy investors realise that the market is starting to turn, and those who are prepared will benefit.

I recently filmed a webinar with property coach Steve Goodey, where we explain how to get yourself ready and why this is a smart move.

During the webinar we discussed:

  • Which stage we are at in the property cycle and the opportunities it presents
  • What sort of property deals to look for in this market
  • Common mistakes people make at this stage in the cycle, and how to avoid them
  • How to manage interest rates when it’s likely they’ll start reducing soon
  • What effect DTIs will have and how to work with them
  • Tax considerations you need to take into account when preparing to buy, including bright- line rules

You can watch the recording of the webinar below.

In all a good result, thank you very much for all your involvement Maggie, you've been wonderful to work with and certainly made my first home buying rodeo a lot smoother than it might otherwise have been!
