Are there still good property deals in New Zealand right now? Here's where to actually look.

A listener wrote in with the question everyone's asking: prices are technically down, but they still feel expensive. Interest rates aren't friendly. Rents don't cover the mortgage.

So is property investment still worth it, or has the window already closed?

On this episode of Ask the Experts, Katie Wesney from EnableMe is ready to talk about what changes the calculations on whether property investment is worth it.

In this episode:

New builds vs. existing homes: which one actually protects your money
The real relationship between rental yield and capital gains
Why buying outside your own city can be a smart risk-mitigation move
Which parts of New Zealand currently have the strongest property fundamentals
How to use equity in your own home instead of waiting to save a deposit
The difference between a genuine bargain and a property that's "cheap for a reason"
The one question to ask before buying ANY investment property

If you've been told property investment doesn't work anymore, this episode will change how you think about it.
