Which Property Investing Strategy Should You Choose? (Real Examples)
If you’re thinking of investing in property WITHOUT a clear strategy… STOP and listen to this ASAP.
Most property investors fail because they buy first and strategise later - and that often means things go wrong from the start.
This is because your property investment strategy determines whether you build wealth or just accumulate debt dressed up as assets.
In this episode of the No BS Property Investing Podcast, we’re sharing the most common property investment strategies in Australia.
You’ll hear about buy and hold, renovate and flip, positive cash flow properties, NDIS, rooming houses, student accommodation, Airbnb, and even commercial real estate.
Here’s what you’ll learn:
✅ How to choose the right property investment strategy for you and your goals
✅ The difference between capital growth and cash flow positive properties
✅ A surprising reason why negative gearing isn't for everyone
✅ Hidden risks of specialist properties (you MUST know this before buying these properties)
✅ The pros and cons of commercial property investing
✅ When (and when not) to invest using your SMSF (Self-Managed Super Fund)
✅The "investment opportunity" that's secretly been Australia's worst-performing asset for half a century
✅ Who should (and shouldn’t) invest in Airbnb or student housing
