PESTLE- Politics and property

PESTLE- Politics and property

As many of you know, I am a Business and Economics and teacher by day. As part of the A-level course, we cover ‘External Factors’, which nicely fits into the acronym PESTLE… Political, Economic, Social, Technology, Legal, Ethics (depending whose version of PESTLE you look at!) As I was teaching this I realised how well it fitted into property and particularly at this current time. 

I have been thinking about writing a blog on politics and property for a while; it’s been difficult to avoid politics in the last few weeks/ months. I am not going to go into what each party can do for us as property investors, and seeing as the Conservatives got the majority vote, there isn’t much of a discussion to have. 

As a property investor, I always revert back to three principles:

  1. Control what you can control
  2. Invest for the long term
  3. Time in the market is better than timing the market
