You Want a 10% Yield… But Do You Want What Comes With It?

Everyone wants a higher yield from their commercial property investment... but are you prepared for what comes with it?In this episode, I’m talking about what different yield levels can actually mean in practice. I cover the risks you’re likely to encounter with 10%+ yielding properties, why 8–10% can offer an interesting balance between cash flow and asset management opportunities, and what you’re really buying when you move below 8%.I also talk about competition, realistic timescales for finding these deals and why a higher yield isn’t simply a higher return — there’s usually a reason the market is pricing the property that way.If you have a target yield in mind for your next commercial property investment, this episode will help you understand what you may need to accept to achieve it.
