Why Invest in Real Estate?
Real estate or real property has been used for centuries as a
measure of wealth and success. Look at the major business tycoons of
today—most have dabbled in real estate. Why should you invest in
real estate? The answer is simple. It’s a low risk, high return
investment. Of course we can’t all expect to become rich from real
estate, but even the average person can expect to see handsome
returns on their investment when they do their homework and invest
wisely.
Reasons to Invest in Real Estate:
Real estate, unlike other investment vehicles is fairly low-risk.
The stock market is often unpredictable and is a roller-coaster ride
subject to rapid rises and falls. Let’s say you have $10,000 and
invest it in the stock market. After a few years you might make
$22,000 pre-tax if you are lucky. If you had instead used that
$10,000 towards a down payment on an $80,000 condo, in the same time
period, the condo could reasonably appreciate to $125,000. If you
sold the condo, you would make $45,000, tax free.
The benefits of investing in real estate are aplenty. Aside from
reaping the benefits of appreciation and tax free profits, it also
acts as a forced savings plan. Every time a mortgage payment is
made, it goes towards building future security. Over time, equity is
built up which can be used towards home renovations or other
investments.
Real estate is an inflation-resistant investment, providing
homeowners with a tangible incentive to save. Owning a home is
widely accepted as one of the soundest financial commitments you can
make.
How Do I Start Investing?
Many people think, "Well, the first thing I need is tons of money."
This is not always the case. Your bank account does not need to be
overflowing to start investing in real estate. All wealthy investors
started somewhere—you just need to know where to look. Assumable
mortgages, group investing and low buy-in development opportunities
come and go all the time. What the would-be investor needs is the
right leads at the right time. I can help.
