The renters taking a different route onto the property ladder

Many young Australians, particularly those in the expensive major cities, are prioritising lifestyle over owning their own home – but this doesn’t mean they can’t still buy property, and many are turning to investing to do it.

Renters are realising that renting where they want to live and buying real estate elsewhere — or ‘rentvesting’ — allows them to have their cake and eat it too.

What makes a good investment property?

Reduced buyer competition, increased choice, softer prices, and extremely tight rental markets mean now is the prime time for property investors to act. And it’s not just cashed-up and seasoned landlords who are able to take a step up the property ladder, there’s plenty of opportunities for first-time investors with a solid strategy in place.

But what makes a good investment? And what are the things you should look to avoid? Luke Harris from The Property Mentors explains.
