I think the defence housing, if brought at a good price would work really well. My husband and I have an investment unit in similar minded principle. It’s a holiday letting, everyone is guaranteed a particular amount of base rent every month and depending on the occupancy rate we all receive a portion of the occupancy rate which varies depending how many people stay within the month. So I think guaranteed income can really work with the defence housing, again if you can get it at a price which is positive gearing or close to it.

As for the Real Estate Investment Trust (REIT) I am not really sure I would be to keen to dive in???
