From all this it sounds to me like we should all be getting ready to buy more ips rather than selling them!
The 3 ips I have at the moment were all bought before the last boom (more good luck than good management back then) when everyone was telling us we were mad to be buying houses for investment. They are going great guns and I fully expect them to only get better as rents rise.
The advice we seem to be getting from that story on Sunday (and other negitive people that post here and make outragous claims but aren't even in the real estate market )is now is the time to sell. From what I can tell when the media tells you this it is actually the time to buy. At the top of the boom there were so many stories in the media telling us real estate was the way to make money and it was actually the time to sell.
I see a bit of a herd mentality here, does anyone else?
