KEYNOTE
In this session, Ralph Rintoule of CITRINE Property & Coaching, will break down the essentials of smart property investing, starting with the pros and cons of old versus new properties – and why understanding the differences is critical to long-term success.

You’ll learn how to approach buying from a cashflow-positive perspective, so you avoid the trap of becoming cashflow negative or creating a debt that’s difficult to manage.

Ralph will also explore the importance of location — buying in the right area, and how having the right mix of old and new properties can help minimise your financial risks while balancing your portfolio.
Finally, he will touch on how family trusts can play a role in protecting your assets and building wealth for the next generation.
