 * Cost of Apartment/median price of the suburb ||  || Apartment prices fluctuating from $340,000 and $410,000 since March 2007, the median apartment price is now at $360,000. The apartment I wish to purchase is $365,000 which is only $5,000 over, which i think is pretty reasonable looks at prior prices and fits well under my $400,000 budget. http://propertysearch.reiq.com.au/Suburbs.aspx?su=Surfers%20Paradise&type=0 || 2 || Between March 2007 to now, the median price of apartments have flucuated between a high of $480,000 and a low of $397,000.

wishing to take, the range of profits will vary. An aggresive entrepeneur will take greater risk in order to gain greater revenue. This revenue will come back in a short period of time. A cautious investor will not get as much revenue as the aggressive investor but it will take a longer period of time to earn any revenue with little or no risk. [|http://www.asx.com.au/documents/resources/] [|shares_course_02.pdf?shares_course_02_text] || 5 || Bonds can be a steady rivulet of income for any wishing to earn without much risk. In this economic problem, I only have $10,000 dollars in which to invest but i do not wish to use all this money in buying a bond that will give me only something between $50-250 dollars a month. If i had greater resources, i would certainly use bonds but at the moment, it is not a viable way. [|http://www.investopedia.com/ask/answers/05/] [|reasonforcorporatebonds.asp] || 1 || Firstly, Trusts can be classified in many categories. In this case we will use A-REITS. These are much similar to bonds but are largely related to real estate. These A-REITS are traded but do not have a profit purpose. Their aim is to give as much dividend to the holders as possible. || 1 || must beggin to come back is short. Therefore i will be acting as an aggressive entrepeneur so i can maximize the profits i will be able to make in a short period of time. [|http://www.asx.com.au/documents/resources/] [|shares_course_03.pdf?shares_course_03_text] || 3 || When it comes to time of revenue, bonds are probably the fastest type of security around. From the time you buy your bonds, you will already receive a steady income if you maintain your stake in this particular bond. [|http://www.housingfinance.com/ahf/articles/] [|2005/march/bond1.html] || 5 || A-REITS yield payments are made quarletly or twice a tear. Thus allowing them to regulate their cash flow. [] || 3 || wants to make money. If the investor wants lots of money in a short period of time, risk is going to take a big role. Although I, as the investor, want to make a lot of money, i do not wish to lose my $10,000 that i recieved from my great-auntie. [|http://www.asx.com.au/documents/resources/] [|shares_course_03.pdf?shares_course_03_text] || 1 || When it comes to risk, bonds have very little of it. Generally, only when the company where you posses bonds in goes broke, only then you lose your money. The thing is that only large, stable companies issue bonds. Most of the times, banks are the only bonds issuer and in an economic state like Australia, a bank going broke is highly unlikely. ||  || Despite sounding as harmless as bonds do, A-REITS have three key risks. Firstly, Market risk is the risk of investing in an asset classwhich may decline in value. For REITs this could  be caused by market sentiment owing to asset devaluations etc. Secondly, ** Gearing risk ** - Some REITs may borrow funds to increase  potential returns, a technique that can magnify both returns and losses. Finally, ** Income risk **- Past distributions by REITs cannot be guaranteed  for the future and may vary over time. [] || 3 || play as an important role as the profits that can be acquired from the buying and selling of these shares. Since dividends are the only way of profiting from shares without losing their stake on the company. In shares dividends are present but do not play as an important role as profit from their trading. [] || 2 || Bonds are renowned for the dividends they give to their owner. Depending on which bonds you have, the dividends may vary from anything between 1-10%of the total price of the bond. If this is a 1 million dollar bond, the dividend could be as as little as $10,000 to up $100,000. || 5 || Dividends of A-REITS comes from the income recieved from rent and sales directed by the company issuing these A-REITS. As mentioned above, if the real estate market is in a downturn, then possibly the dividends will be lowered. In most of the cases though, the holder of these A-REITS will have a steady income. || 5 || paying brokerage fees to any big or small brokerage company in Australia or the world. Now a days there so many brokerage companies that accessibility to shares or any other type of security does not matter. || 5 || Similarly to share, bonds can be easily accessible and thus need no complex brokerage systems to be bought and sold. || 5 || A-REITS are equally traded as shares or bonds but are now widely known and thus may be a bit more challenging in order to buy and sell them. || 4 ||
