Shaz explains the differences between an investment company and a trading company, and how the approaches to buying properties for each will require different schools of thought.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• If you buy a property, hold on to it, and rent it out, then this an investment purchase. if you buy a property, do something to it and then trade it, this is a trading purchase.
• Serviced accommodation property investments are treated as a trading deal, as you are selling a product to a client each time it is rented out.
