Learn how to handle your property investment risks with care before they
become explosive, warns the latest issue of Australian Property Investor.
Like any financial endeavour, property investment comes with a certain
degree of risk. For those who prefer to maintain a low-risk portfolio, Australian
Property Investor examines the nine best strategies to minimise and negate
each risk category of residential property investment.
“Especially for low-risk investors, it’s crucial they understand the risks
associated with their property investment so they can be mitigated without
wrecking returns,” says API deputy editor Matthew Liddy.
“It’s really about adopting a preventative rather than reactive measure in
investing.”
Some of the nine risks API has identified are:
-
Capital growth underperformance
-
Interest rate rises
-
Unexpected damage
-
Difficulty servicing your debt
-
Borrowing risks
-
Relationship risks
In its latest issue, API also offers readers six golden rules for managing risk
and talks to an investor who cleverly uses an offset account to cover portfolio
shortfalls.
“With record-low interest rates and plenty of incentives out there for investors
to buy now,” notes Liddy, “it’s a good time to be better prepared and know
what you’re stepping into to avoid fire sales in the future.”
