In today’s show I’d like to remind you of some of the foundational principles I use to grow my wealth.
I’ll discuss things that "always worked" rather than things that are working now.
Now to be clear… this is very different from most of what you hear in the news, which basically focuses on short-term investment trends. You know... those headlines that we’ve been seeing so much of recently - the top 10 areas to invest in 2025, the top 5 lessons from 2024, what’s ahead for interest rates or where’s the next hotspot.
I also discuss the difference between expectations and forecasts and provide insights into the current market dynamics and future outlook for property investment to give you some clarity in the chaos of the many mixed messages in the media.
Takeaways
- Focus on long-term investment strategies rather than short-term trends.
- Recognize the behaviour gap between intentions and actions.
- Successful investing requires patience and discipline.
- Building a strong team of independent advisors is crucial for property investment success.
- Expectations should guide your investment strategy; they are more useful than forecasts.
- The property market is cyclical; prepare for downturns and upturns.
- Investment-grade properties are key to long-term wealth creation.
- Current market conditions present unique opportunities for savvy investors with a long term focus.
- Understanding market dynamics can help mitigate risks.
- Strategic planning is essential for achieving financial goals in property investment.
