Assess your Investment

Smart investment provides long-term capital appreciation and immediate, consistent rental yields but you need to have all the facts at your disposal.

• Establishment costs can be significant, with stamp duty, legal and surveying fees to consider.
  
  
• Coupled with refurbishment and furnishing costs, initial equity contribution is often higher than anticipated.
  
  
• Capital investment must be balanced with projected income which means understanding what rent you will get and your running costs.

An error here will distort your investment calculations.
