    Yep Derek and Den are onto it.

    Your wealth is definitely created via the capital growth of a portfolio.

    In the current market ( and really just to throw in a short commentary and not get to involved) when seeking cashflow it is critical to ask:

    1) Is the property CF+ (cashflow positive) because prices are falling in real terms. Are asset values falling adjusted for inflation?

    I have had several emails from people off the forum asking about the type of deals we are finding here in NZ currently and passing onto our clients.

    What does CF+ properties stand for??

    Hi Primrose,It is Cash Flow Positive Properties. Which is a property that generates enough rental income to cover all costs of owning (including mortgage payments) and there is a surplus rental income left over, so in other words, a property that pays you a passive income to own it, even when…[Read more]

     I prefer 3 sligthly   – geared or neutral properties , more dollars worth apreciating. then one grossly neg geared property where you will have to actually go and have to  do some work to pay off.

    More great advice, buy and hold property investing is all about controlling as large an asset base as possible for as long as possible.
