May '09 Issue
When times are tough, what you need is to be inspired and encouraged.
We do exactly that in the May issue, with an exclusive interview with the very inspirational Robert Kiyosaki. He is the reason many people started investing in the first place.
He talks to us about his new book, Conspiracy of the Rich, and his new rules of money to help investors manage their investments in a recession and what they need to do to be prepared for whatever happens next.
This is one not to miss!
We also profile a Nelson couple who have built up an $8 million portfolio over the five years they’ve been in the property game, by investing through syndicates. Teamwork and reducing financial risk has huge rewards.
Our renovation feature looks specifically at how to renovate to sell and how it differs from renovating to rent out or live in yourself. It’s all about looks.
How do short-term rentals stack up against the more traditional long-term tenancies? We find out in our strategy feature this month.
In our A day in the life feature, we spend the day with a property mentor to find out what exactly it is they do and how they can help your investing.
