Deciding when is the right time to buy

​

​

It is one of life’s big three and when it comes to your future prosperity (unless you marrying well or your child is a tennis prodigy) buying a property is by far the most important

​

​

There’s no perfect answer when it comes to choosing the right time but here are some points to consider:

​

​

FOMO No No

Are you a slave to fear-of-missing-out or do you find yourself beginning to calve a different path? Resisting that urge to buy another round of espresso martinis is a property ownership superpower.

 

​

Stable Income

Are you in a stable place work wise and if you were to lose your job/income could you replace it quickly?

 

​

Good Conduct

Are your bills and rent on time or do you prefer to wait for that reminder call that your credit card is overdue and over limit? If it’s the latter maybe now isn’t the time for you.

 

​

Is the Market Right

Walk into any real estate agency and you’ll probably find a black and white sketch of a shriveled geriatric with the caption “the man who waited for the perfect time to buy”.

 

​

Since federation, Australian property has just about doubled every decade. Most would tell you that property is a holding game. Get in and ride the cycle.

 

​

Backup Plan

If you get into trouble can you crash a couch or move back home so you can let some renters help you through the hard times.

 

​

Support

Are others in your circle thinking the same or can you find a circle who are? Just like most things in life, if you’ve got support around you then you’re alrealdy halfway there.

 

​

How bad do you want it?

Do you dream of making your own mark? Can you already feel the freedom that comes with being able to put a picture hook wherever you please without asking permission?
