Being new to the investment Market, I am now in a situation that requires good research and advice, this is where I hope you can help, I have recently inherited a good sum of money that I need to use for long term investment. I have set my heart on purchasing property for many reasons, with the intension of renting out. My question is, should I purchase two or possibly three properties outright or consider placing substantial deposits on a number of properties...possibly 50%? I am open to all opinions as I need to get this right for myself and long term my children, good luck!
