1st way - buy low, sell high

Very easy strategy. Timing is crucial to success in this strategy. Opportunity for getting low is in the time of recession, when emotions in marketplace and economy are low (the lower the better). A great time to enter the market because prices will probably be down. Some investors like to buy when pricing is "relatively attractive" or "cost effective" according to their means. Some investors might want to buy in only when there's indications of uptrend (so they are buying at the bottom of the upturn).

Now how do we know whether it is the bottom? Through the bad times, most will say "it's too dangerous, it will come down, let's wait". Do understand that real estate is basically an illiquid investment, as opposed to the equity market. The recurrent charts / graphs / data presented (on a macro scale) can be good clues of how the real estate market is proceeding. The stock market information may show unpredictability (up 1 day, down the other, up One week, down the other) but housing market data will craze for quite a while before peaking or bottoming (additionally won't know precisely for how long, that's a question which just the market has an answer to).

Many real estate buyers like to consider that today's expense is "too expensive" relative to last month / last year's price. We're going to only support such believing if the broad data shows "all-time highs", in any other case smart buyers should are aware that its not only you who is buying at this "higher price". If others are buying around the same price, then it is natural that the market forces is constantly push the prices even bigger because each buyer-turned-seller continuously request higher prices to acquire profit, and that is how everyone plays the game (well, at least before the bubble bursts).

Second way - buy for a cheap price

Simple plan but often overlooked. So, you may be curious as to where exactly can you find properties at a discount just like the newly launch the venue Most real estate property articles will educate you on to search for foreclosures (auctions), vital sales, etc. So, we can't say more details on those.

There's another kind of property which we believe can be regarded as "discounted" - old apartments in worn-out condition. A word of caution - you have to be somewhat considering doing reconstruction works, chatting with designers and contractors if you're serious about trying out such type of discounted properties. And try to remember the 3 golden rules of real estate - location, location, location.

In fact, there are also discounted houses in new condo projects too, just like royal square condo How so? ... stay tuned for more to our updates and we will show you more

Finally way - buy to lease out

Rental yield (your rentals returns on your property purchase) is a important way some people make money from properties. If you are seeking into this plan, may we suggest purchasing 99 year leasehold properties (in a great spot) rather then freehold (in the midst of nowhere)? Tenants are able to spend higher rental for (1) convenience, (2) comfort. Tenants is not going to pay you more because your property is a Freehold tenure (even if you had to pay the retailer / developer more). Tenants can pay more if your property is near a subway (MRT), or has wonderful facilities, is nicely furnished and lets them hugely enjoy their limited period of stay in Singapore.

You will find there's list of properties near subway (MRT) which is updated onto our blog soon. Your can stay updated on our blog via email or you can see the updates on our twitter page and facebook page also.
