What I wish I knew about my first investment property

An investment advisor can help you structure a property so the tenant and tax benefits cover most of the costs. With the right guidance, many investors become cash-flow neutral or contribute as little as $50 a week while their property grows in value — proving that the right advice makes starting far more achievable.

Why You Need It

Why work with an investment advisor?

Property is one of the biggest financial decisions you’ll ever make. Without expert guidance, it’s easy to fall into traps that cost time and money.

Here’s how partnering with Eda Property as your investment advisor can make a real difference:

  • Steer clear of common investment mistakes
  • Tap into data-driven insights on suburbs and growth areas
  • Build a strategy focused on long-term wealth
  • Learn with confidence through education and mentorship

Yes, especially if you’re planning for long-term goals like property, retirement, or wealth creation. A qualified investment advisor can help you avoid costly mistakes and create a tailored strategy that reflects your personal goals and risk tolerance.

Fees vary depending on the service model. Some advisors charge a flat fee, hourly rate, or percentage of assets managed. At EDA Property, we offer commission-free advice, so you always know what you’re paying for and why.

While both provide financial guidance, an investment advisor often focuses more specifically on building wealth through vehicles like property or shares. A financial advisor may take a broader approach, including budgeting, insurance, and estate planning.

FAQs

Your Investment Education Questions Answered

The answer to this one is plain and simple: years of culminated experience and connections. There’s a reason we’re Melbourne’s trusted source for all things property and investment. Our team has the industry knowledge to give you a strong foundation for your investment endeavours, but our relationship with our clients goes so much further than that. Once you’ve completed your education, we will be able to use our extensive network of resources and research to help you take those first practical steps of investing.

Depending on who you are and what you want to achieve, investment can look all sorts of ways. Some of the most common property investment strategies we see include: subdivision, flipping properties, buying and holding established property, renovating and holding, and buying brand new or unestablished property. Contact the Eda Property team today to discuss what investment strategy could be best for you.

Investing takes time, and can come with significant risks. You should be sure to discuss and consider all potential outcomes that may come with investing in property to decide whether it’s the right choice for you. Factors such as tax changes, sliding property values, inflation, vacancies, and rising interest rates could all affect your success.

Deciding which type of investment property is right for you is best achieved with the advice of an expert. When you sit down with an Eda Property advisor, they can walk you through the most common types of property investments, including unoccupied land, commercial or industrial property, and residential property. All of these come with their own advantages and disadvantages.

One of the biggest perks of investing in property is that climbing up the property ladder is a whole lot easier than getting on it. Entering the property market is a tricky game nowadays, but once your foot is in the door you’ll find you have far more room to grow. Beyond that, having an investment property offers benefits such as capital growth, tax deductions, and rental income.

Depending on who you ask, the principles of great property investment will differ. With Eda Property education, we like to keep things easy to understand and straightforward to achieve. Some of the key values we hold include: staying ‘future-focused’, stacking the odds in your favour, and making informed, well-researched decisions.

Absolutely not! In fact, by taking the time to learn the ins and outs of investment before you get your foot in the door, you heighten your chances of success. Why not start off on the right foot, instead of learning from the rookie mistakes you might make along the way?

By taking the time to educate yourself, you lay a critical foundation for your financial future. Being able to navigate investment properties like a professional will offer significant opportunities as you grow your portfolio and solidify your wealth.

Property investment education is a program that equips you with everything you need to take on investments. Participating will provide you with essential property investment skills and knowledge, helping you to get started, improve strategies, save money, and eliminate costly mistakes.
