In our firth Q&A host special, Veronica and Chris jump into your questions! What to look for in the land before you buy? Can you retire with just investment properties? Is buying and building your own home a good idea? How do you know if you’re buying the top end of a suburb? High strata cost, what are you paying for? Is there a new incentive to buy sustainable properties? 

Questions:

1. “Are there any things a buyer should look for in land besides location and size? If it slopes? Do all new properties decrease in value after build?”
2. “How does buying your own land and building vs house and land packages, and renovation of established?”
3. “Is there a viable option to retire without selling down or without killing the geese that lay the golden eggs? How does one do it before the age of 60 without super and just via property, and without selling down half or most of the properties to get there. I guess that's an episode I'd love to listen to?”
4. “One of the things I would like to hear your views upon is how do you evaluate / research when you are, say buying a market leader property in a suburb ?”
5. “I’ve noticed when I look in the lower north shore that a lot of properties have high strata, I’ve heard councils are starting to audit strata run buildings to confirm they are up to fire code etc?”
6. “Do sustainable properties receive a premium on the potential property value? ie: is there any analysis on buyers being willing to pay more for a sustainable product?”
