Some investors are looking for a quick turnaround and capital gains. Other investors are looking towards long-term investments with steady growth that provides positive cash flow. Others may be seeking to diversify their portfolio and include a mix of long-term and short-term investments.

Long-term investments

Investors seeking more sustainable long-term investments will most likely seek to invest in safe markets with strong rental demand. This generally means buying in major Australian cities or regional markets, whilst avoiding areas with high instability or boom-bust markets. When purchasing property in either an Australian capital city or major regional centre, you could expect a moderate rental yield of between four and five per cent gross per annum. However, this return is dependent on the property being tenanted which most property investors will note is not always guaranteed.
