How many of you have really “thought outside the box” when it comes to diversifying your property portfolio? In the case that you have £100-150.000 to “spare”, you may consider different kinds of investments.
Recently, I myself, have been looking at different kinds of investments and while doing some research, I’ve crossed paths with some potential agricultural properties.
Although this has never been part of my strategy, I think a possible mix of agricultural land, “open” land and cash-flowing rentals have some great potential. 
Looking further afield at places like India, Thailand, Argentina and Greece, I feel there is a lot of scope for building a well-rounded portfolio that is diversified by asset type, country and currency.
Many of these types of properties have a longer-term investment plan with higher yield potential. It’s really a matter of how much cash flow you need right now and how much you can spare for a longer-term investment.
Planning for the future should never be underestimated- both for retirement and for the future of our kids.
It’s always best to plan for any kind of situation, as we all know the market is subject to change and keeping all our bases covered is the safest way to go.
What if your rental investments had a decline for a couple of years? Or, you simply fall out of love with the BTL market. You could have a back-up of agricultural investments creating enough of an annual yield to cover living expenses.
