Where to start as a
first-time investor

Why do you want to invest?

The first step is deciding where you want to invest your money and why. Do you want to buy an investment property or are you leaning more towards the stock market? Everyone has different dreams, so making this decision is an important first step

FAQs

The main benefits of investing in property are the long term returns that a good quality property can bring you, and the ability to increase those returns through gearing (borrowing). Banks prefer lending for property as opposed to many other assets, so you can use a combination of your own savings/equity, a bank loan and rent from tenants to build a property portfolio. There can also be tax benefits provided to property investors, however, this can be changed by the Government and should always be a secondary consideration when deciding to invest.

All investments carry risk. When investing in property these can be reduced by careful research, correct funding and ongoing monitoring, however risks cannot be completely eliminated. The main risks involved in property investing are tenant and vacancy risks (having bad tenants, damage, long periods without tenants), market risks (lower than expected growth and returns), lending/interest rate risks (increasing interest rates meaning the loan repayments are higher) and legislative risks (changes in laws that pass through the Government).

This really depends on your individual situation. Paying off your home loan is a great long term wealth building goal, however the earlier you start investing the more time you have for compounding to work it’s magic! This may be the difference between one investment property and a property portfolio.
