What do I need to know about investment properties?

Multi-family houses are in high demand as a sound capital investment. However, there are several things to consider in order to find the right property with the lowest vacancy risk. As with all capital investments, real property is subject to fluctuations in value. If the interest rate rises or falls, this can affect both the price and the profitability of a property. Therefore, it is all the more important that you hedge against possible losses in value and optimise the return.
