Episode 64: When is the Right Time to Invest?

 

“Should I be investing now or should I wait till next year?” Uncertain if you’re ready to take the next step on your property journey? Last week, we established that now is always the right time to invest, because housing prices will always rise. 

 

This week is all about a deep dive into understanding cash flow. I’ll define ROI, or return on investment. I’ll explain how property is a long term investment technique that relies on cash flow over capital gain. I’ll show you how to calculate whether a particular opportunity is a good use of your money and provide examples comparing different investment options. I’ll use the Crossrail project in London to illustrate the enduring importance of factoring in location when determining whether to invest–tying together the balance between time and place. Finally, I’ll leave you with this food for thought: now is the best time to buy and the only better time to have bought would have been last year.
