"Our fast home loan approvals are backed by unique lending products tailored towards property owners and our competitive refinance packages provide you with an opportunity to potentially save money on your existing home loan."
Erica thinks research is key. "Never just speak with one finance specialist or one real estate agent," she said. "Talk to as many as you can, ask questions, get information."
Tania says there is so much information people don't think about, its why you need information from specialists.
For instance, there are five important things to consider when buying an investment property:
- You need a plan, know why you are looking to invest and understand the result you want before you start looking.
- Do your research, the last thing you want is an empty investment with no return.
- Choose the location carefully, you will have a better chance of securing tenants if it is close to schools, local shops, transport links and business hubs.
- Tick the "convenience" boxes know what your ideal tenant wants, lock up garage? Ensuite? water views? is a home office important? Great features will also make your property easier to sell when the time comes.
- Know your budget - Every property purchase comes with additional costs and they will be added to the final cost - know what they are and make sure you will comfortably be able to cover the cost, expect the unexpected, you cannot plan for everything but make allowances for the unforeseeable.
