Helping kiwi property investors make better investment decisions

Subscribe to the NZ Property Investor magazine now! Our aim is to provide you with at least one tip or idea per issue which will help you make more money with your investment property. The magazine is filled with plenty of top-quality information to help you become a better real estate investor - whether you are a beginner or an expert.

The February issue is on sale from Tuesday, February 2, 2010:

Deciphering all the different statistics and market information that's available on the state of the property market is an art in itself.

This issue we look at what established investors listen to and why, plus we have survey results from Landlords.co.nz readers on who they rate as the best economist, commentator and author.

Negotiation too is an art-form, one that requires great understanding of the other party's situation and the ability to be flexible when brokering a deal. We have some handy hints on how to better your bargaining skills in order to become a real guru.

Our Commercial 101 series takes a look at the different types of commercial property and how they vary from each other. We also discuss the importance of matching the type of commercial property you invest in to your end goal.

Michael Yardney talks about why the biggest barrier to our success is actually ourselves and how we can overcome this.

We also profile Nelson investor Lynnette Butler and why she always goes for the "twist" when purchasing property.

Kawerau and Tokoroa have been prominent rural towns in the past due to the wood manufacturing industry. We take a look at them now and find what value they hold for investors - and both towns look promising for long-term strategies.
