April issue - available now

Every issue of the NZ Property Investor magazine will continue to bring you all the news, tips and statistics you need to keep your property investments humming in 2008.

Friday, April 4th 2008, 12:00AM

by The Landlord

Our cover story this month looks into the reality of packaged property deals to see if ‘wealth without the work’ can be a reality. After the packaged property giant Blue Chip’s collapse, we also ask ‘how safe are they really?’

This issue features part four of our Investing 101 series, designed to help readers become better property investors, with a practical guide to residential property investment. In part four we look at who you should have as trusted players in your property investing team and why. After all, property investing is a team sport and at times we need to be able to rely on others.

Can you really start with $2 and end up with a house? We profile Adam Baird, a young ‘Palmy’ bloke whose personal challenge is to do just that – trade $2 for a house. We talk to him about his journey and what’s happened so far along the way.

Solutions to cash flow can be as easy as looking in your backyard. We look at how to increase cash flow through the faithful ol’ granny flat – how minor dwellings can be a major asset for investors.

Our feature on investor psychology looks at how successful investors seem to have similar mindsets when it comes to crafting their wealth. We look at how to lock your own mind into ‘wealth creation mode’ to help boost your property investing success.
