Property Investment has been a prevailing path to wealth creation for many years. Not only has property proven to have the high potential to generate capital growth as well as rental income, but there are tax advantages as well.

"...The benefits that flow from investing in real estate are the classic characteristics that all investors would like to find in an investment.  These are the capacity to provide you with capital growth opportunities and the capacity to pay you regular investments.  Further, you can use real estate as collateral to secure a loan to increase your wealth.  Unfortunately, for many investors a major barrier to entry is the need to have a substantial sum of money to buy a property outright.  But do not despair.  The Australian taxation system provides numerous tax incentives to you to get started”
