Can you still make money from property even when prices are moving sideways or declining? The answer is yes provided you buy the right property and do your homework.    If you are holding out for the next growth cycle in the property market you may be in for a long wait and you may expose yourself to some significant losses or at least leave a lot of profit on the table for someone else to take.

If you purchase the right property you can create positive cashflow returns in any market at any time.

If you plan to profit from property then you need a thorough grasp of how the property market works and you also need the ability to take action.  You will also need the services of a Conveyancing Brisbane solicitor to represent you for your purchase or sale if you are buying an investment property in Brisbane

There are two ways to make money from property.  First there is capital gain which takes time and secondly there is positive cash flow which are created when your property generates more receipts than you have to pay in finance and ownership costs.  The vast majority of property deals in Brisbane are dependent on ongoing capital appreciate in order to be profitable.

Historically properties only tend to rise strongly in value for approximately a third of the time. In order to be successful at investing for capital gain you need to time your entry and exit so as to capitalise on the movement of the market.

Most Mum and Dad investors only have an entry strategy (they have a procdure for calculating when to buy).   Serious investors who make money repeatedly have an entry and an exit strategy.  They know the appropriate time to lock in profits by disposing of the property.

Cash Flow

A property is in positive cash flow when it makes more money than what you spend on it to continue holding it.  If a property is cash flow positive this profit recurs with the passage of time – it is self-generating.  This is very different from a capital gain which is a once off profit only realised once on the sale of the property. Once you sell the property and you have spent the profit that money will be gone forever.

When you have a positive cash flow property which say earns $50 per week this will keep generating this profit as long as there is a person willing to pay to live in the property.  Cash flow returns are more reliable because the amount you receive is consistent.

First you have to find a positive cash flow property, a tenant and then you have to ensure you avoid high maintenance costs or rising interests costs which ould push your positive cash flow property into a negative geared property.
