She knows. She collected £64000 from a company she invested in very recently. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Em Dott Posted December 31, 2007 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2007 Basically, I'm just intrested in seeing a return. Right now, my finances aren't quite there yet, but I want to get some knowledge and prearation because once I have some money available, I will be looking to invest and hopefully get a return on something.The property thing I've contemplated. Getting a house, renting, getting another mortgage and doing up houses and that so I can sell them back at higher prices.Safe Marlon, I will PM you probably sometime in teh new year, because that's when I'll be more on point with my finances and have more ideas about what I want to invest in.So do banks take a small commission from what you make from the company that you buy shares in, or do they just charge you to buy a share in a company?

I know HSBC offer this, but be prepared for them to charge you for this.I dont know any IFA who would put money into property now, as I say I work with investments on a daily basis and talk to IFA's everyday.Fair enough, its not the most risk-free option.However, Ive done it myself in the past, and very recently, and continue to see a good return off it.For example, I recently bought a flat at auction, converted it into 2, renovated them, and am currently renting them both out - the rental price at the moment has been eager to rise, and looks set to rise due to the house price crash. Lenders are more stringent with their credit, buyers are put off/not able to gain credit for mortgages, and turn to rent. Landlords in turn know that the demand far outstrips the supply, so can afford to up the rent. The rental from both flats combined easily covers the mortgage and more, so its a very worthwhile investment.Property isnt the safest investment in the world, but it is by no means a bad one. If you know the market, like with anything you can make huge amounts.Safe though Bully I may PM you in the new year if thats cool, would be good to have a link up.
