Property Investment 101: Key Terms You Should Know

Continuing from last week’s episode on Property 101, we dive
deeper with Property Investment 101. In this episode, we break
down the essential terms and concepts that often get overlooked,
words you’ve probably heard thrown around but maybe aren’t quite
sure what they really mean.


If you’ve ever found yourself confused by property jargon, this
is the perfect guide to clear things up.


We talk about everything from yields to equity—stuff that might
seem a bit dry but can make a massive difference when you’re
making those big decisions.


Hang around 'cause we're keeping it simple and straightforward,
just the way you need it. No fluff, just the essentials that’ll
help you get your head around the property market. 


Cut through the jargon and feel confident and in control of your
property journey! Let's dive in!
