The Investor Lab The Goldilocks Zone: Maximum Profits From Market Cycles
You’ve probably heard the story of Goldilocks a thousand times or more by now, and her finding the porridge that was ‘just right’.
In terms of property investing, finding the right time to invest holds a similar concept. You need to get into the market at a time when it’s ‘just right’ to get maximum profit from market cycles...
And by understanding market cycles, you’ll be able to optimise your investments when the market is at its peak - and even when it isn’t.
In this episode, we tackle the Goldilocks Zone and why it is the ideal time to get into the market.
We talk about market cycle fundamentals…
Why rents rise first and prices follow…
How the cycle works with the APEX progression…
And much, much more.
See you on the inside!
