This book is written in the belief that for the person who wants to attain financial security, and have some fun, excitement and flexibility in the process, property makes the best kind of modern investment.

But what does it actually mean to ‘invest’ in property? What is the real difference between ‘owning’ property, which the vast majority of people do anyway nowadays, and ‘investing’ in it? Don’t we automatically ‘invest’ when we buy property, given that property generally goes up in value? Yes, in a sense, but the main difference is that when you consciously invest in property,as with any other type of investment, you are buying with the express and overriding intention of making a profit.

When you specifically invest in property, you are doing more than just depending on a rising market. Instead, you are hoping to make a gain whatever the market, as you are using moneywise skills rather than just wishful thinking.
