20.01.2022 Immunise your property investments and reduce risk in the current environment with these 5 measures: 1. Diversify Spread your risk, dont have all your properties in the same street or suburb 2. Invest in low-density areas only avoid high-rise units or large house and land subdivisions where supply can exceed demand... 3. Buy close to the median value for the suburb this means the majority of people can afford it if you need to sell 4. Dont just buy in cheap areas these areas can have higher unemployment and lower incomes 5. Invest in proven growth suburbs dont speculate on emerging zones or sub-regional markets #investmentproperty #propertyinvestment #soundproperty #buyersagents #propertyinvestments #strategicinvestment #propertyportfolio

19.01.2022 Is your investment property's rental yield going to be affected by COVID? An early indicator is increasing vacancy rates in the suburb. If the vacancy rates in a suburb are starting to rise this may suggest tenants are being forced out of the suburb due to job losses or a reduction in income. This puts downwards pressure on rents and then prices tend to follow.... Generally, a market is considered balanced at 3% and anything less is an undersupply. A vacancy rate of 3% an investor could expect around 1-2 weeks vacancy a year. #keyinvestmentdrivers #propertyinvestment #investmentproperty #vacancyrates #strategicinvestment #soundproperty

19.01.2022 PROPERTY NEWS: Sydney continues to have the highest residential vacancy rate in the country at 3.4% The vacancy rate is basically the available rental properties on the market at any one time divided by the total rental stock in the area. When vacancy rates are low it usually means supply is being outstripped by demand. This puts upward pressure on rents and prices then tend to follow. Generally, a market is considered balanced at 3% and anything less is an undersupply. ... Just one of our 15 #keyinvestmentdrivers for property investors to consider for a sound investment.
