Today I'm going into some of the questions that are getting asked in our Perth Property Investment Facebook Group and it's going to be interesting!

You may not be in the same specific situation, however, what I think is valuable is for you to see my thinking, my strategy, and how I approach decisions. There's potentially a lot to be gained by adapting this process to your situation. That's why I'm sharing and that's why these episodes have been so popular in the past.

I have some juicy questions today!

"Should we buy in a certain area we're looking at?"

"Can you purchase a property anonymously without the person selling it knowing who you are?"

Also, looking at some sequencing when you're trying to upgrade your home and "Do you keep your property as an investment?"  And some advice as to how I look at that situation when to sell, when to buy, and should you hold.

Then we look at Joondalup as a suburb. Whether it's worth buying an apartment or not.

Going into some of the comparisons between units and houses and how they performed in the past.

We're going into some of the options that a lot of investors weigh up. Buying a newer home or an established property, and the pros and cons of each. Then I'm going over paying off your mortgage VS. investing and paying off a mortgage later.

And finally, I'm covering my thoughts on NRAS properties. And it should be something that you consider when you're looking at investment options.

So let's go inside.

Real Results from Real Investors

Thrilled With the Sale Experience!

Living in the Melbourne, we had to fully rely on the agency handling the sale of the property. We are thrilled with Investors Edge Real Estate in the way they handled: the marketing, negotiating with the tenant, the time on market and of course the sale! We are looking forward to using their services again.

Treats Your Home Like It's Her Own
I highly recommend Erica as she treats your home like it's her own. She is so thorough and has fantastic attention to detail. Because of this I know my home will be looked after and any issues will be dealt with swiftly.
