It’s an age-old question that divides people: to invest in an existing (old) property or a new one? Both have their fans who swear by their favourite investment option. Whether you belong to one camp (invest in new property) or the other (buy an old property), it pays to reconsider and review the upside and downside of each. For many people, it may be just a question of timing or for some, it could be a case of sticking to your preferred property.
