How can I start investing? 

 

Before you start hunting for an investment property, it's worth considering several important factors:

1. Crunch the numbers. It's important to determine if you are you well placed to afford an investment property, particularly during the inevitable periods of vacancy. As a guide, allow for around four weeks of vacancy per year and see if your finances can handle the cost.
   
   
2. Consider your long term plan. Property can work best as an investment when you hold onto a place for the long term – at least five years, preferably ten or more. If you have major costs coming up in the next few years like a wedding or plans to start a business, think twice before sinking all your cash into a rental property.
   
   
3. Know the market. Look for areas with a high proportion of renters – and this usually means suburbs that are well-serviced by public transport with lots of local amenities like schools and shops.
   
   
4. Buy with your head not your heart. Find a property with low maintenance gardens, off-street parking and plenty of storage with built-in wardrobes and cupboard space. Think about what matters to a tenant and put your personal tastes to one side.
   
   
5. Have the right loan in place. Your investment loan will play a key role in the success of your rental property. A competitive rate is important though loan features can be critical to managing cashflow.
