Trust is a big thing when you are spending money, especially hundreds of thousands of dollars, or even more. You would have to go a long way to find more trustworthy people than Cate and Pete. They are also smart, understand the theory behind successful property investment and, very importantly, personally invest in property themselves.
Too many property spruikers write about making a quick buck in property because it sounds exciting and sexy.

If you can do this, you will make money in property, slowly but surely. I am sure that you will enjoy reading this book as it has countless tips on what to do right and also what not to do.
