Could your portfolio be stronger? You won't know unless you ask us...

Ok, most of us will be back and fully into the swing of the new year and for you as a property investor it's going to be an important year. One where both you and your property portfolio will be tested to the full.

You will be tested on your abilities to make sound decisions regarding your existing and future investments based on logic, not emotion...and your portfolio will be tested on its resilience, strength and overall profitability.

So how will you fare? How do you know you'll make the right decisions? How do you know you'll be acting on logic, not emotion?

Property Secrets will help. We recognise that active portfolio management is going to be key over at least the next 12 months. That's why we are offering to review your property portfolio through our new Analyst Access service.

Using our unique Intrinsic Property Value concept, developed over the last decade, we will carry out an extensive, analytical review of your existing portfolio, providing you with a comprehensive report detailing your strongest and weakest properties and recommendations on what actions to take in the short, medium and long term - and all with your stated goals in mind.

One of our clients, Paul Stead, has already had his portfolio reviewed. Here's what he had to say about Analyst Access:

I was very impressed with the depth and quality of my portfolio review, and the Intrinsic Property Value approach gave me confidence that this was an analysis led approach, backed up by judgment and experience.

You definitely get back what you put in – I gave a lot of information and this helped Property Secrets produce a level of detail I was very happy with. The lengthy telephone conversation to discuss my portfolio and detailed written report were both of great use and I started implementing the recommendations – in particular which properties to sell and which to hold long term - straight away.

You need to know how you and your portfolio are going to do in the next 12 months - we can tell you. Find out more here.

i-PortfolioTracker Update

One way you can immediately - and at ZERO COST - begin managing your property portfolio to better effect is to use i-PortfolioTracker (i-PT), online property management software developed by Property Secrets.

If this is the first time you've heard about it, I strongly recommend you take a look for yourself.

In the meantime, to keep you up to date on the latest developments in i-PT we have started a new blog on the Property Secrets website, tracking all new developments. Read it here - the latest development involves a much asked for reminder system. Check it out.

That's enough from me this week. Good luck!

Cheers

Updated for 2009, we take a close look at what a reunification in Cyprus would do for the property market, investors in Cyprus and the country as a whole.

There has never been a stronger possibility of the reunification of Cyprus. The election in the Republic of Cyprus (the South) of Demetris Christofias as President has renewed hope following the rejection of the United Nations Annan Plan in 2004.

In the latest research report from Property Secrets - the updated Cyprus Property Market Profile - we look at the prospects for a united island and what it may mean for both the economies of the North and the South and, by consequence, the property markets of each, but especially the property market in the North.

Included in the report is a brief history of the island and its split in 1974, the various attempts at a resolution since and just why there is genuine hope now.
