INVESTING IN
REAL ESTATE

One of the reasons investing in real estate is so appealing is that we can leverage our investment. Even though we invest only 20%, for example, of the purchase price as a down-payment to buy the property subject to a mortgage, we earn appreciation on the entire purchase price. Creative financing today allows investors to put no money down to purchase property and still reap the benefit of appreciation of the property upon sale. Real estate, like any investment, has its risks. There is no guaranty that real estate market values will continue to climb or that any particular property will appreciate in value. However, in balancing one's portfolio, real estate is another area to consider. While there are many people who make their living investing in real estate, there are also many, many people who do not invest in real estate as a full-time job and still benefit from including real estate as one of their investment choices.
