Hi Sean,
When investing in real estate it is great to have an investment that is cash flow positive. This means that the rental income is greater than expenses, those being mortgage payments, rates, insurance, property management and maintenance being the main ones. Cash flow positive investments are not always easy to find, two ways to help achieve them are renovation or a large down payment.
Sean,
You hit the nail on the head.
“…..find the path in the industry that suits you and will lead you down the road to success.”
Make more deals, earn more profit is a great title for this blog, but it can really be talking about a range of strategies, not just investing in the real estate market.
Thank you for encouraging me to “think outside the square” and find my little niche in this area of wealth creation.

If you want to start Investing in the real estate market you really need to do your homework. Look at the suburb or town carefully and decide whether the property you are looking for will have room for growth or are you buying it at the top end of price range.? Also as Sean said above there are a lot of different options when investing in the real estate market such as renovation, rental or buy it to live in then sell. I love looking at real estate.
Hi Sean.
If we decide we want to be serious property investor it will take hard work, a lot of education and ongoing research as the market trends and fluctuates.
If you have a couple of friends in real estate then that’s great, they can give you inside information on the local properties for sale.
Buying properties or land for investment requires a good education which will involve learning the demographics of the area you wish to buy into, checking up council and government plans for the future and making sure amenities (such as schools, shops etc) are near by. All these facts can help with the decision making
The key to being successful in the real estate industry is definitely determination. You need to be diligent in your research and patient for the “right” deal.
Without proper research you could find yourself going from a position of profit to a position of loss in the blink of an eye. Developing an income stream from property is a very satisfying and financial rewarding experience. All the hard work is well worth it.
It is interesting that many people are content to have one or perhaps two rental properties and just be content with the passive rental income and capital growth of the property.
However, they ignore the potential of the increasing equity in those properties which if properly used could allow them to obtain more places. On average, nationally, property values increase by about 7% – which isn’t too shabby equity-wise after a few years. Equity is just money sitting there doing nothing.
The property market still is a great field to make money – if you put in the work and determination. If you are willing to do that, you can make really good deals and earn money. But like with everything else, you have to make it happen.
