Wendy's
Week
What an
amazing event! That's me pictured at right with Rick Otton (We Buy Houses) and Ludwina
Dautovic (The Red Tent Woman), two of our
spectacular guest speakers. Feedback from the event was
overwhelmingly positive and I'd like to send a big thank you to all
those that made the effort to attend. Well done on taking
action!
I'm also
honoured to be included in the 2009 Who's Who of Australian Women.
If you'd like to grab a copy of this inspiring book
showcasing the experiences that have shaped
6,600 of Australia’s most remarkable women, and how they in
turn have shaped the nation, go here.
Until next week,
happy investing!

Strategic Property Investing
One the most common questions I am asked is
“where should I buy property?”
That’s a great question, however a better question would be
prefaced with “this is my strategy…”
Investing in property can be extremely rewarding, but you need to know
how you are going to do it. Would you buy a new car
without first determining your price range, the make, model, colour or
included features? The same applies to property
investing. Research is required to determine HOW you will
invest in property.
A key part of “the how” is knowing what you are
good at. Why? When it comes to investing in property, knowing
what you are good at will help you determine the strategy you should
focus on.
With property, it is a case of "horses for courses". You will
find that you'll be drawn to one or two particular strategies more than
others. Take the time to make a plan of what best suits you, your
personality and your available time and resources - is it renovating?
Is it developing? Is it making changes to a property to increase the
value (such as strata titling)? Perhaps it is finding deals for other
people?
Work out exactly what you are looking to achieve through investing in
property:
- Are you
looking for income? Or growth? Perhaps both (yes, this is possible!)
- What is
your target area and who is your target market?
- What
criteria do you look for (3 bedroom houses, large parcels of land,
blocks of units, student accommodation)?
- Who is
going to rent your brand new purchase? Does it suit them?
- How long
are you going to hold it for?
- What do you
do if you can't rent it for any length of time?
Focus
on your strengths, make a plan and determine how to best achieve your
property investing goals.

Minutes with...

Question
1 What
has been your biggest challenge in business and how did you overcome it?
My biggest challenge was when I returned to property investing after
being away from it for a few years. It didn’t help
that I had moved to a completely different area in a new State
either. Armed with a few more years under my belt, it
wasn’t as easy as it had been when I was younger, more
impulsive, and less knowledgeable. I overcame this by doing
lots of research, forming a great support team, and being very clear
and focused on what it was that I wanted to achieve.
Question
2 If
you had to start your business again from scratch, what would you do
differently?
There are a couple of things I would do differently. The
first is that I would form support networks and teams
quicker. The second is that I would leverage more sooner
– hire more people, hire more knowledge, hire more
skills. Lastly, I would seek out mentors right from the
beginning, instead of thinking I could do it all on my own.
Question
3 Who
do you admire and why?
For me it’s not about who, it’s all about
what. I admire any person who acts with integrity, courage
and honesty – my own value system. I admire them
even more if they combine this with standing up against adversity, or
standing up for what is right, or the underdog. Lastly, I
really admire people who use their lives to make a difference
– be it as a famous personality or the everyday person on the
street.
Question 4 It
takes a lot of determination and dedication to succeed in
business. What keeps you motivated?
I’m just so passionate about what I do! I love
creating something out of nothing, I love seeing the properties evolve,
I love seeing other people succeed and I love being privileged enough
to help others. When I see success, lives changing, shifts in
thinking – I just get so excited and it
motivates me to keep doing more!
Question
5 What
are your 3 biggest success tips?
1.
Work out your own vision for your life and your value system,
and just go for it. Don’t let anybody talk you out
of it, and don’t be distracted by life and other
people’s expectations.
2. Surround yourself with
mentors, a support network, and positive people
3. Have a go!
Don’t live your life with regret – you
don’t want to be saying in ten years time “I wish
I’d done …”. Do the
work, prepare yourself and have a go!
