property series: why you might NOT choose to buy a property

Just because property CAN be a good investment, it doesn't mean everyone SHOULD buy property right this very second. Sometimes it's not the right time or choice for your situation. In this episode Azaria shares her thoughts on this idea, touching on:👉🏾not all property goes up in value👉sometimes it's ok to focus on gaining experiences out in the world rather than settling into a property - go live!👉🏻going crazy hard to save for property might not suit your circumstances - especially if you're studying or working casually/part-time👉🏽there are many options for investing - and some may suit your goals or needs better than property👉🏾property has a lack of liquidity - you can't slice a room off your house and sell it if you need to access cash👉🏽property and its risks might not suit the level of risk you're prepared the handle, or your "risk profile"
