#15 When a Residential Portfolio Stops Making Sense

On the latest episode of Inside Commercial Property with Rethink Investing, host Phil Tarrant and Scott O’Neill discuss how investors can outgrow a residential portfolio and how a commercial asset can help offset some of the issues that long-term negatively geared investors face. Scott takes a deep dive into the commercial structures available to investors, pointing out the good, the bad and the ugly for commercial syndicates and REITs. The duo also discuss how REITs can be used as passive instruments for investors as well as whether or not indirect investing can create the same sort of long-term returns as direct investment.
