What are the realities of property investing?

The dreams of purchasing properties to create wealth through a portfolio is the goal of property investors, yet the realities of purchasing properties can sometimes creep up on us and push us into debt.

CEO of Positive Real Estate and managing partner of Richardson and Wrench, Sam Saggers, chats to Smart Property Investment about the skills of being an investor, how holding a property in the long term as opposed to selling too quickly is better for investors and reveals what he thinks will happen to the property markets state by state in the future.

Sam explains his take on slower growth in the market and how it will impact investors, his take on the so called property crash as well as his advice to investors revealing the 'big three' points he looks for before purchasing a property.

You will also find out how to know where to look for property, his hitlist of places to invest and how supply and demand impacts the growth in the markets.

You'll hear all of this and much, much more in this episode of The Smart Property Investment Show!
