Property Type: Consider the type of property that aligns with your target tenant demographic. For example, apartments might be more suitable for young professionals, while houses with multiple bedrooms could attract families.
Rental Yield: Calculate the potential rental yield of the property to ensure it meets your investment goals. This is the annual rental income divided by the property’s purchase price, giving you an idea of the return on your investment.
