Investing in your early 20s: Setting up your financial future

Buying your first property can seem out of reach when you’re in your early 20s. But savvy young investors know that with some smart decision-making, you can get on the property ladder at any age. Smart Property Investment’s Phil Tarrant sits down with Danielle Douglas to talk about purchasing her first investment property at the age of 23, and the lessons she learned about making sacrifices to build up a deposit, using a buyer’s agent, and asking questions along the way. The duo discuss the wisdom of diversifying your investment portfolio to provide a fallback for financing your property. Danielle talks about the importance of empowering young, single-income women to get into investing.
