How to Make Smart Choices in Property Investment

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Investing in property doesn’t have to be complicated.

In fact, it’s based on a few simple principles that, when followed, can deliver steady returns over time.

At its core, buying a great investment property is similar to buying a home—except for one key difference.

As an investor, you need to take a business-first approach, setting emotions aside and focusing on the numbers.

The goal? A solid rental income and strong capital growth.
To achieve that, look for a property that’s affordable, appealing, and in a great location. Tenants today aren’t just renting a home—they’re choosing a lifestyle. That’s why proximity to public transport, shops, restaurants, parks, and schools is a major plus.

If you’re considering a new build or off-the-plan investment, depreciation is another important factor to keep in mind.

And before you dive in, it’s essential to define your investment goals and work with a financial advisor to create a clear strategy.

And remember, property investment is like a fine wine—the longer you nurture it, the better the rewards.
