You must be well-prepared, have your finances in order, and be ready to execute when the right opportunity arises. 3. Negotiation Strategies: Negotiating in a hot market requires a different approach. Complex conditions and low stock levels mean you need to simplify your offer and make it attractive to sellers and agents. 4. Retirement as an Equation: Retirement shouldn't be tied to a specific age but rather a financial equation. Focus on building your wealth position and cash flow to provide the lifestyle you desire in retirement. 5. Transition into Retirement: The years leading up to retirement are crucial for planning and transitioning smoothly. Work with financial advisors and strategists to create a plan that aligns with your goals and market conditions. 6. Strategic Buying: Understand that there are times when you may strategically pay a bit more for a property to capture a valuable opportunity. Consider the long-term benefits and your portfolio's overall strategy. 7. Beware of Desktop Valuations: Be cautious when relying on desktop valuations, as they may not always reflect the true market value. Don't over-leverage your property based on these valuations. If you're considering property investment, take the time to analyse the market tempo in your desired area. Understand the current conditions, build a strong financial foundation, and be prepared to act quickly when the right property becomes available.
