Considering buying a flat as a second income (& because I want to have somewhere to throw the DCs out to when the time comes) and to hopefully take advantage of property price gains, long- term.
It seems foolish to throw more money at the pension pots than we already do.
Not confident to play the stock market personally.
What else can you do to prepare for retirement if it's not buy a property? BUT having had relatives do this - it seems fraught with tension and pitfalls!
Would I be unreasonable to think that there's not much more I can do to invest for the future?
Does anyone have any advice for a first- timer? Or any reputable source of advice please?
