Residential investment property, residential investment properties,

The definition here of residential investment property is a property that a tenant will use to live in, this is as a opposed to commercial investment property which is property used by the tenant for purposes other than as a home namely business purposes.

Some investors will only look at residential investment property and are not interested in commercial property, this is a good strategy as to be honest for the majority of what we call mum and dad investors i think staying with residential real estate makes sense.

The advantages of only considering residential investment properties is that as a rule because it is such a huge slow moving market place ( estimates on the number of residential properties in Australia in 2009 put the figure at over 10 million dwellings ) this is a huge market place.

Being a such a big market place it can be argued that the chances of resale value being subject to volatility are less than with commercial property.

As a rule this is right but the main advantages of residential investment property over commercial property are that your chances of having a vacant property are generally reduced.

Residential investment property

As in any instance this will vary depending on the individual properties but the there is no real reason why a residential investment property should be vacant for any extended period of time.

This is not always the case with commercial investment property see commercial investment property

If you residential investment property is vacant for too long you either need to do some work to make property seem better value to tenants or you have to reduce the amount of rent you are asking.

This is a good thing about residential investment property there are always tenants looking for homes to rent to get yours rented it isn't rocket science either make the rent fairer or fix the place up and you will find a tenant quickly.
