The Right Property Group directors are back for the second instalment of “Design your decade”, this time focusing on years five through 10 of one’s property investment journey. Steve Waters and Victor Kumar join host Phil Tarrant in this episode of Investing Insights with Right Property Group to outline the fundamental shifts that occur in the second half of the decade, and the notion of a static 10-year plan and a rolling 10-year plan running in parallel. Victor, Steve and Phil talk about the importance of consistently reviewing one’s portfolio, the major milestone that should occur around the 10-year mark, and the dangers of chasing the latest strategic fads.

Most property investors lack an overall strategy. The most common misconception is that you should buy as much property as you can and it will eventually work out.  Victor Kumar & Steve Waters from Right Property Group strongly advocate that creating a balanced portfolio, combining both growth and cash flow is GOLD. It's imperative that you balance both ends of the equation to get to the result and don't become impatient. They will take a deep dive into ensuring you don't confuse action with results. Action needs to be deliberate and sometimes the best action to take is no action: waiting it out, letting your portfolio consolidate, and letting the cash flow settle down to get through the initial flurry of expenditure will allow you to look at the impact on the portfolio, the impact on your borrowing capacity and ensuring that this step is getting you closer to the end goal.
