Preface
Most people believe that property is a great investment, but that in order to get into property you need money, contacts and experience. When you only see the barriers to entry, you tend to give up before you even try.
Financial Freedom Through Property is my contribution to educating South Africans on the insider secrets to property investing. After 10 years of investing and at the tender age of 30, I’m financially secure, which means my basic living expenses can bare covered by passive income. Things like, my bond, levies, rates and taxes, groceries and insurances can be covered paid by using the income I receive from rental properties. This is empowering because if I were to lose the ability to earn an active income, I could reduce my lifestyle and still survive on my passive income streams.
