ASK477: Does property still work long-term? PLUS: Should I move to invest?

It’s time for your weekly dose of Ask Rob & Rob – let’s get stuck into two great listener questions!

  • (0:40) Matt wonders if property can still be a reliable pension for younger investors, given house prices have historically risen faster than wages and inflation. With concerns about falling demand and economic shifts over the next 30+ years, he asks Rob & Rob for their thoughts.

  • (7:05) Miles is on a moderate wage in London and wants to build a property portfolio, but it’s proving difficult to save for a deposit. He asks Rob & Rob whether buying up north, living in the property, and renting out spare rooms is a smart way to get started, or if he should hold out for a more traditional buy-to-let.
