The core criteria for picking an investment property

Three core criteria

Aim for at least a 7% annual rental yield, roughly 25%+ capital growth over five years, and unit types — studios and one-bedrooms — that tenants actually want.

How to lower the risk

A portfolio concentrated in one district is fragile. Spreading across Khan-Uul, Sükhbaatar, and Bayanzürkh distributes the risk.

Steady cash flow, not price appreciation, is the guiding principle for picking an investment flat.
Key takeaways
  • A net annual yield of 7%+ is the bar.
  • Studios and one-bedrooms turn over fastest for rent.
  • Spread across three districts to lower risk.
