If you look at the list of the Forbes 40 richest people in Singapore, you will see many who made their fortunes developing and investing in real estate. Or just look around you – the average Singaporean’s wealth probably comes more from the appreciation of his HDB flat or private property than from any other asset.

My point? Based on my experience and what I have observed, investing in property is the most common way for the average person to build up a significant amount of wealth.

But isn’t it risky to invest in property now?

In the current environment where the government has announced multiple rounds of measures to control the market and prevent rapid price increases, it might feel like a very risky thing to buy a property.

Wise investors will look at this situation from a different perspective: For long term investors, the next one to two years is likely to present you with a golden opportunity to pick up a good property at a low price and make a lot of money.

Yes, buying a property can be risky, and the best way to manage that risk is to be prudent when you are buying, to do proper research on what you buy, and to learn as much as you can about property investing.

Here’s what our readers are saying…
“I have read many Singapore property investment books out there in the market. The insights shared in Secrets of Singapore Property Gurus can potentially save you thousands if not hundreds of thousands of dollars. Essential reading for anyone looking to purchase private properties for own stay or investment.” – Tan Shei Wah

Where to find trustworthy knowledge

The problem I’ve found is that there are very few good and objective sources of information out there to help the budding Singapore property investor. While a good property agent is certainly helpful, a smart investor cannot rely solely on what an agent says as he has an inherent conflict of interest – his goal is to get you to transact, as that is how he earns his money. That might explain the amusing phenomenon of how many in the industry will say that it is always a “good time” to buy whether prices are going up or down.

That was one of the main reasons why I started Propwise.sg, to help you understand the Singapore property market and make better buying, selling, renting and investing decisions – minus all the hype and misinformation. You can find most of the basic knowledge you need to get started there. This new book takes it up a notch!
