Maximizing Returns on Investment
When considering leveraging a property portfolio, the focus should be on evaluating potential returns relative to borrowing costs. If a person can borrow at a 5% interest rate, they should seek investments that promise more than a 5% return to ensure profitability. Investing simply for capital growth without a concrete return strategy can be risky and likened to gambling. A careful analysis of the local market, such as in Derby, can yield fruitful opportunities that surpass these borrowing costs when the numbers align favorably.
