9 Questions You Must Ask Before You Become A Property Buyer

One way or another, everyone is involved in the real estate industry – either as tenants, home owners or investors.  Here are 9 questions you might consider asking prior to taking the plunge into the most significant purchase of your life:

1. How can I profit from this investment? 
2. What are my risks? 
3. What form of insurance do I need in place? 
4. What name or structure should I purchase the property in? 
5. How can I improve the profit potential? 
6. If I need to sell, what is my exit strategy? 
7. Can I afford the property if things change, eg interest rates increase?

8. What type of loan should I take out?

9. What does my accountant and solicitor say about tax/legal

     Implications?

This is by no means a comprehensive check list but is designed to cover most of the issues which arise in property investing.
