Over the past 50 years property has out performed many other forms of investment, exposing investors to significantly reduced risk but delivering similar rewards. Buying opportunities off plan further reduces your risk as you can enjoy a negotiated discount and you require less of a deposit.
You can also take advantage of 1st Asset’s gearing model. ‘Gearing’ means using other people’s money, usually in the form of a mortgage, as leverage to maximise your return. In other words you don’t have to put in all the capital, but can enjoy the same return. The graph below shows how our gearing model works compared to a conventional way of purchasing a property for investment.
This graph shows that buy to let opportunities through 1st Asset mean you need less of a mortgage and less of your own capital to make the same gains.
