Thankyou both for responding so quickly.We have been researching and reading different books. I appreciate your concerns but doesn’t Steve say as an example in the book that once you decide to invest you should set yourself an approximate goal of 30 days to acquire the first IP? We have found a property in a regional Qld that offers good growth potential and fits the 11 sec solution. I am worried that if we snooze, we may lose and we wouldn’t want to miss out on this opportunity. When you say ‘market slump’ does that mean Steve’s strategy only works during a boom? Queensland has been forecast to continue its current growth cycle for the next 3-4 years.
