Property investment is often seen as being less risky than other forms of investment. The benefits of investing in property include

​

Less volatility

Property can be less volatile than shares or other investments.

​

Reliable Dividends

You earn rental income if the property is tenanted. This can be more stable and predictable then dividends from shares, and has the potential to achieve capital growth unlike fixed income investments.

​

Capital growth

If your property increases in value, you will benefit from a capital gain when you sell. In the long run, property in Australia has shown a strong record of capital growth.

​

Leverage

You can borrow to buy a property, which  means the amount you are investing is higher then using cash on hand, and returns are also proportionally higher.

​

Tax deductions

You can offset most property expenses against rental income, including interest on any loan used to buy the property.

​

Physical asset

You are investing in something you can see and touch.

​

Low or no tax rate on disposal

If you do achieve capital growth, the tax on any profit you make from investment properties after owning them for twelve months or more are far lower then the rate of income tax you are probably paying now, and if the property is your private residence the profits may be tax free.

​

Security for loans

The equity in a property, including any capital growth achieved during the ownership period, can be used as security to borrow funds for other investments.

​​

For these reasons ​property should be a part of a well managed investment portfolio.
