An investment should serve your goals rather than maximise the number of properties owned.
Assess quality and capacity
Compare income, costs, condition and location evidence. More debt or assets can increase concentration and operational demands. A desirable suburb does not guarantee growth or reliable rent.
Review the strategy
Keep records, reserves and a plan for vacancy or repairs. Consider diversification, holding period and sale costs. Obtain qualified credit and tax advice for your circumstances. Regular review is more useful than assuming every investor wants the largest portfolio or that one purchase ensures success.
