How to Make Smart Choices in Property Investment

Matt from Matt Wineera - Thats Real Estate with Matt Wineera

Investing in property doesn’t have to be complicated.

In fact, it’s based on a few simple principles that, when followed, can deliver steady returns over time.

At its core, buying a great investment property is similar to buying a home—except for one key difference.

As an investor, you need to take a business-first approach, setting emotions aside and focusing on the numbers.

The goal? A solid rental income and strong capital growth.
To achieve that, look for a property that’s affordable, appealing, and in a great location. Tenants today aren’t just renting a home—they’re choosing a lifestyle. That’s why proximity to public transport, shops, restaurants, parks, and schools is a major plus.

If you’re considering a new build or off-the-plan investment, depreciation is another important factor to keep in mind.

And before you dive in, it’s essential to define your investment goals and work with a financial advisor to create a clear strategy.

And remember, property investment is like a fine wine—the longer you nurture it, the better the rewards.

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

The Press investigates the growing reliance on your unpaid labour.

Automation (or the “unpaid shift”) is often described as efficient ... but it tends to benefit employers more than consumers.

We want to know: What do you think about automation?
Are you for, or against?
