Building approvals continue to be strong, especially for units, adding urgency to concerns about over-supply. Buying properties without first setting out goals and strategies can be a big mistake for many investors. Vacancies have tightened in all capital cities, but rental growth remains relatively sluggish, except in Canberra. The worst may be over for the struggling resources sector and property markets impacted by its downturn. Property investment can generate wealth but it can also lose money if people make fundamental mistakes. Here's how to avoid seven mistakes commonly made by investors. Price growth in Sydney is now below that in Melbourne, Brisbane, Canberra and Hobart, according to one research source. Is it possible for prices to fall 15% in a single month, then rise 13% the following month? It is, according to much-quoted research icon CoreLogic RP Data. Most of the capital cities have low vacancy rates, headed by Hobart and Canberra. The situation for Perth, however, continues to worsen, with the vacancy rate now above 5%. The RBA has disregarded CoreLogic price data because it overstated Sydney growth. Our research shows that growth statistics are often rubbery figures. A new service which claims to provide a free service to buyers while being paid by vendors has been slammed as misleading.

Testimonial
"I have been looking for a property course to undertake for about two years but everywhere I looked I just saw carpetbaggers and snake oil salesman. When Neil Jenman recommended you, I booked in for your course straight away. And I was not disappointed. Thanks for providing independent, plain-speaking, well-researched advice. Invaluable."
