After all these years in property, I’m still surprised at how some investors decide which property to buy, however it doesn’t really surprise me why so many don’t get past their first or second property.
You see… many buy for emotional reasons, and while others think they’re investing in property, for some, they’re really speculating.
In today’s show episode, I discuss common mistakes in property investment with Brett Warren, focusing on the dangers of hot-spotting.
We emphasise the importance of long-term strategies, economic fundamentals, and the need for a solid investment plan. Our conversation highlights the risks of following trends and the necessity of understanding market dynamics to build a sustainable property portfolio.
