Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best strategy to start building a property portfolio?
Start with a clear investment strategy based on your financial goals, risk appetite and borrowing capacity. Most successful investors begin with a single, well-researched property that offers capital growth or strong cash flow, then leverage the equity to acquire additional properties over time.
How can I use equity to grow my property portfolio?
As your property increases in value, you can access equity by refinancing and using those funds as a deposit for your next investment. This allows you to expand without saving a full deposit each time, provided you stay within your borrowing limits.
How many properties do I need in a portfolio to achieve financial freedom?
There’s no magic number—it depends on your income goals, property values, rental returns and expenses. Some investors achieve passive income with three to five properties, while others grow to ten or more. The key is buying strategically and reviewing your portfolio regularly.
