How can real estate options and property superannuation put you in a better financial standing in preparation for your retirement? A property option is a legal instrument by which a choice is granted to acquire a given property. Simply meaning; a Property Option is a document that gives you the choice to buy a property on your conditions, or to not buy if you choose. If you choose to purchase, the seller is absolutely committed at the
original strike price. There are two types of property options that revolve around the time commitment involved:
Short and Long Options.
The greatest advantage you have with Short Options is the ability to create cash in a very Short window of time. Short Options are typically somewhere between the day of signing, through to 6 months. The remarkable thing about doing a Short Option is the fact that it no longer requires the process of doing a full Development Approval. It involves locating sites with development potential and on selling them to a developer.
The success of short options lies in identifying potential, but you will need to be very specific with information, research, comparables, building costs and all the other intricate parts of assembling deals. In fact, if you are able to identify intrinsic value, it allows you to be able to assemble a Short Option.
Short options are a lucrative part of Options and offer the kind of cash flow that most people seek in the shortest possible timeframe.
As the name states, Long Options work on a longer time frame. They necessitate engaging consultants and seeing the Developmental Approval process through to completion. When you then on sell the Option to a developer or builder; you are giving them a turn-key solution which is very attractive. Of course the greater effort put into the property, is rewarded with greater profit. Therein lays the advantage of the Long Option.
