With Portfolios - Property... Make it Happen

Well Happy New Year and welcome 2012.

I have a feeling this year is shaping up to be one of the most interesting years on record for property investors.

For more than a year, Portfolios has had an alliance with McGrath Real Estate Agents and their mortgage broking arm Oxygen Home Loans. In conjunction with them we provide services throughout the Newcastle, Hunter Valley and Port Macquarie regions.
We get access to John McGrath and his views on property and we thought that this market review for Winter 2011 will be of interest to you. Let us know your feedback. Happy reading!

Insurance
With Summer around the corner we start to think about our properties, the wild summer storms and dry heat bringing bush fires – summer is a volatile time for property investors.
But have we considered ourselves in the equation?
What would happen to your loved ones if you were no longer around to pay the bills?
I know it sounds morbid on this fine Spring day but the reality is these things happen, and quite often it is the family that is left holding the financial ball, so to speak.
This is where Portfolios can help.
Portfolios Plus provides the services of insurance professionals through our network of trusted providers.
Personal Insurance
Protecting yourself and your family is a vital part of a successful property investment strategy. If you were to suffer in an accident or be unable to repay your investment loans through disability or death would your family be able to support your portfolio?
What kind of legacy will you leave?
Protecting yourself is one of the greatest gifts you can give to your loved ones if you should be unable to support them.
Portfolios through our insurance providers can offer you one or all of the following insurance products:
• Life Insurance
• Accident Insurance
• Income Protection Insurance
• Temporary Or Permanent Disability
Insuring Your Portfolio
Whilst Portfolios does not provide insurance in this area we recommend you contact your property insurer to discuss a deal with them.
There are other forms, the important thing is to make sure you are covered.
A chat with a trusted Portfolios insurance advisor will ensure you are not in the dark.
