So you would need to be extra careful when using property as your finance tool to gain "Passive Income".

In simplest term, you HAVE TO make sure

1. you can rent your property out to fully pay for the monthly loan repayment
   
2. you budget in the fee you pay for professional to maintain your property including

Lawyer

Real Estate agents

Renovation

Interior Design if needed etc.

Without these 2, you cann't start property investment at all.  With this, there is no guarantee you can win big yet but at least you would at least pay less to learn the lessons.
