How Many Properties Do You Actually Need to Retire?
Someone told Ed at a property seminar that you need 10 investment properties to retire.
After running the numbers for thousands of Kiwis, he can tell you: it's not true.
For most NZ couples, the honest answer is closer to two paid-off rentals plus NZ Super.
In this video, Ed breaks down the 5 levels of NZ retirement, and exactly how many properties it takes to reach each one:
● Why one NZ rental property could fund a No Frills retirement on top of Super
● Why the Choices lifestyle ($92,600/year) is achievable with one to two NZ rentals
● Why the Affluent lifestyle ($150,000/year) needs four to five, and why waiting 10 years to start costs you more than $200,000
● Why even $200,000/year in retirement doesn't require ten properties
● And the two strategies: Nest Egg vs Golden Goose, and how they change the number you need
