Purchasing Property

Purchasing an investment property sounds easy, but making a smart investment decision that maximises your potential profit, requires a lot of home work. Before you purchase a house, terrace or apartment, you should thoroughly research and understand the local market. This includes studying the changing demographics of the area, becoming familiar with factors affecting supply and demand ie. population growth rates, and anticipating any impending changes to council or government legislation.

New Zealand Property Solutions research the market and surrounding area for you, identifying good investment opportunities according to strict selection criteria.

The credentials of a sound investment property are always influenced by the old adage "Location, location, location." Local knowledge is a very important factor in your investment decision, and you need to consider things like:

• Does the asking price represent current market values?
• Why is one side of the street more prized than the other?
• How attractive is the property or location to potential tenants? What is
  the rental demand like and what is the anticipated rental yield?
• How does the floorplan compare in terms of aspect, view, sunlight/shade, etc.
• Proximity to local infrastructure such as schools, shopping centres, public transport and main roads.

A clear understanding of these inter-related issues is critical to making an informed investment decision. We find this is the main reason why interested overseas investors haven't taken the next step to purchasing property.
