Investment property yield versus capital growth
Property owners may consider both potential rental income and the possibility of long-term value changes when making investment decisions. These factors can vary based on individual circumstances and market conditions. How you judge these factors depends on your individual circumstances. For advice tailored to your financial situation, we recommend consulting an authorised representative of Lifespan Financial Planning Pty Ltd (AFSL 229892).
Some general considerations you can keep in mind include:
- You need to get comfortable with fees when you own property. When you own a unit, you might pay strata fees and other costs. This will impact your rental income.
- It’s well known in real estate that location plays a significant role in a property's value
