Maitland, NSW -- (SBWIRE) -- 08/12/2014 -- Investment Property, a leading source of information and qualified listings for those interested in investing in property in Australia, announced the release of a new report. Titled "The 3 Biggest Mistakes People Make When Investing in Property," the guide is available for free to visitors to the company's website. A product of Investment Property's extensive institutional experience with teaching individuals how to become successful property investors, the report aims at helping readers recognize and avoid the most common and costly mistakes.

"With our long record of success at helping Australians become profitable, self-sufficient investors," company representative Kate Rollan said, "we here at Investment Property have a good idea as to the hurdles most beginners face. Our new, free guide will help those interested in getting started get off to good, productive starts." A variety of studies point to the vast majority of Australians being unprepared to support themselves adequately in retirement. Some recent estimates, in fact, put the figure as high as 86%, with a startling number of the country's aging workers being poised to rely on nothing more than limited government pension when they retire. Property investment has proven to be one of the best ways for individuals in Australia to take responsibility for their financial futures, and Investment Property has developed a number of innovative and effective programs for helping people do so.

The company's contacts with would-be investors typically being with educational outreaches, of which the newly released guide is an example. Those interested in working with Investment Property to improve their own financial situations can also take advantage of free consultations that can be arranged through the company's website. Through these initial assessments, Investment Property agents work to determine the best strategy for a given person or couple to get started in property investing by analyzing such factors as existing home equity, income levels, and previous investing experience.

Once a plan has been established, most who work with Investment Property then proceed to looking through the company's extensive, pre-selected listings of properties for sale in Australia. Investment Property works with builders and developers across the country to identify the most promising and potentially lucrative investment properties before they become generally available to others. With this resource of curated, qualified properties in hand, the company's clients are better able to more easily and effectively pick out properties that will help them fulfill their retirement savings goals.

"Our new guide contains a small sample of what we can offer to those looking to improve their retirement prospects," Rollan concluded, "and we hope that many Australians will benefit from it and our other services." The company's new guide to the most common mistakes made by property investors is available in digital form for free download at the Investment Property website. Visitors there may also arrange for free consultations, sign up for access to the Investment Property listings database, or take advantage of a number of other informational resources.
