If you are buying to keep. Make sure everything is okey with your purchase, if not, you will be dumping a lot of funds into your purchase within the first year and along with your payments, if you have them can make your purchase a bad buy. Usually with a good purchase, if buy used, your out lay should not be considerable for at least 5 years. If buying new, 10 years.
Buying to let is risky. You only get 2 kinds of tennants, good ones and bad ones. Getting a bunch of bad ones in a row can make your purchase a nightmare. |

Yes & no. YES if you buy at a good price, & can let out for lots of profit (being realistic about all of the costs), & it is in a good area of establised rental demand, & it attracts high quality tenants that will not cheat by not paying rent. Otherwise NO. |

Depends on what you buy... I would buy a small apartment unit in a very chick neighborhood and rent it to yuppie-wannabes who want to rub elbows with the upper class. Now that makes a perfect investment with a reasonable cash flow.
So go ahead and good luck investing. |

yes, but stick to condos/apartments
with baby boomers turning grey, most are going to be looking to downsize, which is going to cause a glut of houses on the market (prices will fall) and a shortage of apartments/condos (prices will rise) |

It depends how much risk you're prepared to take. If you're buying for cash, you have a fairly volatile investment and things can go wrong (dud tenants, no tenants, structural problems). If you're borrowing to buy to let, the investment is even more volatile because you're depending on the margin between the investment return and the interest rate.
If it all goes right, the rewards can be high. It's probably slightly safer than the stock market (but remember that's extremely risky if you play it with borrowed money). |

It can be. If you are really serious, you should have an attorney review the contract. A lot of well intentioned tenants get burned by not understanding what they are signing. |
