In this blog post One&Only would like to discuss the types of property education and if it is necessary when going into investment. As Elaine mentions in our YouTube video, educating yourself on property is invaluable, the more you understand in the field then the more you will prosper.
There are various Property educational courses available that vary in price and quality.

4. Rich Dad Poor Dad Book Series
Robert Kiyosaki created a book in 1997 that promotes financial education through investment, asset management and property. His book portrays the comparisons between his two fathers, one who was one of the richest men in Hawaii and one who was poor.
Kiyosaki outlines varies principles that motivate yourself into financial freedom, where his portfolio of books will allow yourself to awaken your financial genius. These books would change your perception from ‘I cannot afford this’ to ‘how can I afford this’. One&Only highly recommend this book, even though it was first published 22 years, Kiyosaki’s principles and thoughts are still relevant in today’s society.
We have discussed in this blog, cheaper alternatives to educate yourself on property. But please take into account that the amount of education you may require or need to spend, entirely depends on your personal situation. Thank you for reading and I wish you all the best on your property journey!
