The age old question but the answer is the same.. NO! They are different, they have different rules that govern the game, they have different growth patterns, yields, market forces affecting them, regulation, and so many other things. Apples and Oranges if you like. 

The real questions comes down to one simple question, although for most people they will not know how to answer it initially. But why are people saying Hotel Rooms all of a sudden and should we really take them seriously?

I want to do House Multiple Occupancy...Really? - Property Rant 037

Property is risky… Investment is risky… Anytime you place your money into someone else's bank account you are at risk. The primary question is not about risk or reward, it’s these two simple things that you should make sure you understand before you make a transfer.

Property too risky… is like saying you don’t understand, it has little to do with property or any investment, so get these two things locked away and invest with confidence and certainty.

Property is too risky...WTF? - Property Rant 038

This old chestnut for procrastination. It’s as if there's just one boat leaving the harbour of wealth… There isn’t, there are 100s leaving every minute so find the one that works for you and get moving.  

Successful property investment is as much about knowing the market, knowing your strategy and making sure the two meet where you invest. There are actually no boats just a simple, methodical process that gives you the best chance of success.

I feel I've missed the property investment boat...you will except if... - Property Rant 039

No problems at all with wanting property deals. … except that this is exactly what property investment companies what you to say. Why because they don’t want to be drawn into how really successful property investors invest. 

So what’s the difference… Deal hunting is bad, having a strategy that meets the market and knowing the rules that apply to your game. So how do you get to know when they are trying to sell you a deal…

Watch the video and find out the one telltale thing that shows the difference between the two types of property salespeople.

I just want to look at  property deals...avoid this one thing - Property Rant 040

It’s a common misconception, that houses are better than apartments rather than seeing them as just a different way to make a return on investment. Once you understand the differences you will realise that both can make money, both have their pluses and minuses.

However with a simple understanding (which you probably already know) applied to this one idea which you need to know to invest successfully you can make money from apartments.

I don't like Apartments,  how can they make money! - Property Rant 041

No matter how good you are now, you started as a bumbling idiot… Only through experience will you become a master! Or numbers investor. 

Yet so many of us give up before we reach the goal. Failure is not fatal if you keep getting back up. 

Don’t let your past hold you back… Keep going, educate yourself, work your strategy and it will work for you now.

My previous investments have not been great. Why will it work now? - Property Rant 042

Losing your job or even changing jobs can be stressful, having to apply for a mortgage at the same time especially given the changes in the market can just add to that stress. 

So how do we overcome this?

Well, the answer isn’t as simple as we would like, but the most important thing to consider is before you commit to the purchase. Only with this in mind will you be able to confidently face losing your job.

What if I lose job before completion, but I need a mortgage? - Property Rant 043

Property Investment is all about Return on Investment (ROI) but risks and the minimisation or mitigation of them is one of the keys to investing successfully. 

I consider these two things when assessing the risk of an investment. It’s essential that you do this in order to avoid the effect of risks on your investment.

Risks should not stop you from investing, doing these two things before you buy a property investment will!

Sounds too good to be true. What can go wrong? - Property Rant 044

So many times we are on the phone to salespeople and they ask us personal information about our situation. So you have the choice to trust them with it or not. 

The truth is an ethical company will use it to provide the right information to help you make an informed decision, a sales company will use it to sell their investments whether they are suitable for you or not.

The question is how to tell?
