HumpAlber Posted November 4, 2012 Report Share Posted November 4, 2012 Property is considered a 'leveraged asset' because unlike stocks and shares, gold, oil etc, purchasers can use finance to purchase a property. This is why the UK property market dipped from 2008-2010 due to the global economic crisis and a sudden restriction of finance which meant that purchasers were either unable to achieve the higher margin of finance or because they were no longer approved for a mortgage.

juicyt Posted November 5, 2012 Report Share Posted November 5, 2012 hmmm, you can get a loan/finance and use it to trade. Why risk your own money to get rich when others will let you use theirs at a small monthly cost? jt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
