Investment property is real estate property that has been purchased with the intention of earning a return on the investment, either through rental income, the future resale of the property or both.

Buy-to-let is usually a secure source of income. We recommend it seldom to first-time investors in real estate looking for monthly income.
It can come to situations when rental costs are much higher then revenues and renting is not much of a solution for the investors. We found some indicators that can signalize this point in a buy-to-let property’s life.
However, the good part is that an investment property rarely becomes a lose-business. When renting is not creating the profit wished for, you can always sell it for the right price.
Worrying news for the rental sector!
The latest Ministry of Housing report shows that almost 4,000 buy-to-let properties are being sold by landlords each month, resulting in the first recorded decline in the number of rental properties in 18 years.

Summer is all about fun and games! And we know that by games we mean sports and games, because that’s what you usually do when you have a garden.
But when it’s really really hot we might want to try some real over-sized funny games. We gathered some ideas and tutorials for:

Old-age should be a relief from all the day-to-day tensions and fears. You should enjoy this time all together with your parents and you can do this by planning your steps in advance.
You might not realize it now… maybe they don’t either. But where will their home be, who will take care of them, and how you will be able to help them are all very important subjects to discuss first-hand.
We found a useful article on what you have to anticipate on this matter. You will find some things to think about and maybe talk over with your parents in due time.
