An Introduction for Busy Professionals Seeking Financial Growth
An Article by Alex Pieri - Founder & Director of AP Property
In the professional world, it is very easy to get caught up in your daily commitments.
Lets face it, most of us do enjoy our careers and would not want to give up the position we have earned, but this can sometimes come at the detriment of your own long term financial growth.
For working professionals, the daily requirement to perform at your best, juggle family life and manage personal commitments can leave you with a gnawing feeling that your hard-earned money is idly sitting in the bank, losing its potential for growth. You're well aware that you should be diversifying your investments, but where do you even start?
This can become quite overwhelming.
In this article, we will focus on the Property Market, aiming to identify the challenges you face when it comes to getting started and whether this avenue is still a viable way to make your money work for you.
So what are the main challenges?
Choosing the right investment
Negotiating a good price
The stress of coordinating a refurbishment
Fear of making costly mistakes
Market uncertainty. Is now the right time?
The Timeless Allure of Property Investment
Property investment has, over the decades, demonstrated an unwavering ability to withstand economic storms and deliver impressive returns. For professionals seeking financial security, the stability and profit potential of property investment are clear reasons to opt for this asset class.
Why Choose Property? Beyond its reliability, property investment offers various advantages:
A Tangible Asset: Unlike many other investments, property is a tangible asset that investors can see and touch. This physical presence provides a certain level of security and control that other avenues cannot provide.
Income Potential: Rental income from property investment can serve as a consistent and predictable cash flow stream. This is especially appealing to high-earners looking for supplementary income sources.
Capital Appreciation: Over time, properties tend to appreciate in value, which can result in substantial capital gains when selling or refinancing in the future.
Portfolio Diversification: Property can be an essential component of a diversified investment portfolio, helping to spread risk.
So what strategies can I Implement here?
Strategy 1: The Buy, Refurbish, Refinance & Rent (BRRR) Approach:
This strategy is tailored to those who seek long-term financial growth. By acquiring properties at the right price, adding substantial value through refurbishments or lease extensions, then refinancing at an opportune moment, investors can extract a significant portion of their initial investment. The property then becomes a source of consistent rental income, offering both cash flow and capital appreciation whilst you are able to re-invest the initial sum into the next venture.
This is the more aggressive strategy that most professional developers use. Some people unknowingly use this strategy with their own home and become 'accidental landlords'. They buy (and often overspend) their home and after a decade or so, the magic of capital appreciation allows them to refinance and pull out a large sum of cash. Those looking for a great time will finally buy the BMW 4 Series they always wanted and travel to a Costa del something... but the smart investors will use that money as a deposit on a second home. This then cashflows them monthly and the cycle starts again. After 20 years, a very novice investor can build a substantial portfolio, all whilst continuing with their day job.
Strategy 2: Turnkey Investments for Fast Cash Flow
One strategy favoured by busy working professionals is the pursuit of turnkey investments. These properties require minimal renovation or refurbishment, allowing for swift income generation as tenants are often in-situ or ready to move in. Buying at the right price is crucial for these investments, as it ensures that high-earners not only enjoy immediate cash flow but also set themselves up for long-term financial success.
Strategy 3: Buying at the Right Price for Long-Term Gains
Investing wisely begins with acquiring assets at the right price. For those aiming for long-term gains, this practice is not just crucial, but fundamental to success. Buying properties at a favourable rate not only maximizes initial returns but also sets the stage for an immediate uplift in the property value, from day dot. In the world of property investment, time is often an ally, but you also want to ensure your immunity to market fluctuations. Therefore, buying at the right price will create a strong foundation for future growth, setting you up for success and mitigating the impact that market changes can have.
