Why Invest in Property?
1. Property is a good hedge
against inflation which is showing signs of re-emerging in the global
economy.
2.
Rental income from property is
a stable source of income
3. Real estate always has a
residual value- property values will never fall to zero unlike shares and
hedge funds.
4. Property is a kind of hybrid
asset with the capital appreciation of a stock but the income producing
capacity of a bond.
Investors typically have more control over the nature, timing and size of
real estate investments.
5. Real estate is always an
excellent collateral security against loans, and allows debt finance to be
secured at the best rates.
6. Property portfolios
offer great scope for diversification of risk into different property
types, locations and rental levels. This helps to spread the risk of an
interruption to income flow.
