Have a look at this:

I was just checking the article as well, maybe I should not start a unit trust property fund investment in Feb, maybe one of the two property ETF ones rather, the TER is about half. Time to read up and decide which one.

Just be careful, property stocks have run hard the last few years, and at a peak.

Thats why just an smallish amount a month (averaging) and 20year timeframe. I'll go through a overpriced and underpriced cycle or two for sure.

Terms being spoken of here are often 20 years +. Not sure how old you guys are but if you are doing this as retirement savings you really should be considering using a retirement annuity and benefiting from the tax deductibility of the contributions, the preferential tax rate on earnings within the fund, the preferential tax at maturity (including tax free lump sums) etc.
