In this episode of The Investors Corner, Andy and Mike explore seven key decisions that every property investor must make. From choosing between houses or flats to weighing up mortgage options like interest-only vs. capital repayment, they dive into the major factors shaping smart, long-term property investment strategies. They also discuss the pros and cons of property vs. stocks as an investment, helping you make informed decisions for your financial future.

Main Topics Covered:
  • Flats vs. Houses: Which type of property offers better growth potential?
  • Mortgage Options: Should you go for interest-only or capital repayment?
  • Property vs. Stocks: Which investment delivers better long-term returns?

Key Takeaways:
  • Houses vs. Flats: Houses generally provide better growth, while flats come with additional management risks due to leasehold complications.
  • Mortgage Strategy: Interest-only mortgages offer flexibility, but combining them with overpayments can help maximise returns.
  • Property vs. Stocks: Property is less volatile and allows leveraging with bank funds, while stocks might deliver higher rewards but involve greater risk.
