Should you really buy a rental property?

Should you really buy a rental property?

So…you are thinking about getting into the property investment market, but you haven’t quite worked out what the strategy is. Everyone else is doing it so maybe I should.  There are a lot of people that spruik rental property purchases but they focus heavily on the tax benefits.  Is that a good reason to buy or is there something else?  What does negative gearing mean and why has there been so much talk in the media about it.
