If you’re a first home buyer, upgrader, someone looking to refinance or to build a property portfolio you are likely to wonder who to trust.
Often when we meet people who are looking at their hindsight (which in most cases is beautiful) say to us, they listened to people who didn’t know what their goals were and what they wanted in life.
The usual tune is that they went ahead and worked with a “friend” or a “friend’s recommendation” who didn’t set up their finance correctly right from the start.
We understand – you don’t know what you don’t know.
So let us ask you this question – are you listening to people and recommendations around you from those who don’t know your life goals and what you want to do?
- It may be Aunty Suzie who told you to invest…
- Cousin Jack saying you can’t afford a home…
- Or your colleagues telling you that property is about to crash…
Or even well-meaning advice from your best mate who says a better financial future is far-fetched…
In short, if you listen to people who haven’t done what you want to do, it will set you back by decades!
We truly believe in what Tony Robbins says about surrounding yourself with the right people… “If you want to be successful, find someone who has achieved the results you want and copy what they do and you’ll achieve the same results.”
So all we want to say is…. it’s important to build your team.
However, first we want you to know who is not an expert – your Aunty Suzie, your cousin Jack, your colleagues or your mates, who are telling you, how and where to buy property.
Our key message to our clients and others looking into home and investment property ownership is – we want you to go by this distinction – listen to those who’ve walked the path that you want to walk.
You might even be speaking with lots of “experts”. We want you to determine who to instantly determine if whoever you’re speaking with is really what will help you with your end goal.
An expert in our view is someone who is experienced in what they’re teaching. Somebody who can TAILOR advice for your unique situation.
It’s somebody who has a clear picture of:
- Where you want to go
- What you want to do
- Where you want to end up
You need TAILORED ADVICE – as different people have different circumstances and the most common questions OUR CLIENTS ask us are:
- Should I do Principal & Interest repayments or should I do Interest Only repayments
- Do I fix my interest rates or choose variable rates?
- How can I pay off my home faster?
- How do I set up my finance right so I can consider another property purchase down the track?
- I will make this home into an investment property, how can I set up so my repayments are minimised?
Basically– what we want to say here is, NO ONE SIZE FITS ALL! It’s important to receive input specific to your circumstances and goals.
This is in TOTAL CONTRAST to you receiving an off the shelf product that may not even take into account…
- Your goals & visions
- Most suitable structures suited your goals needs and circumstances and
- How can you save more over the life of your loan rather than some initial savings
This ensures ONE THING….that you get an OUTCOME that may NOT EVEN MEET YOUR NEEDS.
So keep focus on who is on YOUR team, fighting for you and advocating for your vision, goals & outcomes.
