Using Property to Build Your Pension

There is continuing concern in the UK at the looming pension shortfall; the Pensions Commission estimates more than 12 million Britons are not saving adequately for their retirement. Discussions on how to resolve this problem are underway, but if you want to ensure that you are not left short you need to find a way of providing for yourself. When you contribute to a pension fund you are investing in a business that you have no control of. Your money can be lost and you can be left with no means of recourse. Property is different. Property is something you do have control of. The Government, pension companies and the banks cannot deliver you a guaranteed long-term income sufficient for a comfortable life. Property can deliver an income for you, and your family that is far in excess of what any of the above can do - this book will give you the know-how to exploit the opportunities that property ownership brings. It will show you how to: choose the strategy that's right for you; research and select the areas that fit within your strategy; find the right property at the right price; finance the purchase of the property; minimise your tax bill; and get the best annuity rates.
