In 20 Must Ask Questions™ Margaret shares with readers the 20 questions she has formulated over her many years of investing and working with property buyers to create lasting wealth through successful property investment. The 20 questions have been a popular feature of her five best-selling property titles - so much so that Margaret has trade-marked the term. In this new book readers have the chance to

delve deeper into how, when and where they are best put to use in the cut-throat world of property investment.

 

Questions to ask include:

 

1. What is the demographic make up of the area I am considering investing in?

Many investors don’t know the answer to this question. So they are at risk of buying a three-bedroom house on a large block in a community of up and coming young professionals who all want to rent a neat little apartment. Or they purchase a two storey town house far from public transport, when 80% of the local population are over 55.

 

2. What are the local council’s plans for future development?

Property is a long term investment so you want to know what council has in mind for the area. Are they building schools and kindergartens to attract new young families? Is there a fast-train route to the city to encourage more young professionals? Smart investors are able to make reliable predictions on the changes that will take place in the locations in which they are buying property.

 

Margaret’s explanation of the questions and answers and how they can affect your property investing are supported with facts and figures and anecdotes, written in her easy-to-understand, engaging style. If you make these questions part of your selection criteria, Margaret claims you can increase your property profits ten-fold!
