Real Estate Investing – Opportunities Abound
1. Real Estate Investing – Opportunities Abound
The world of real estate investing has
certainly changed over the past few years. It
wasn’t so long ago that everything went up
and everyone made money in real estate.
Well with the major drop in real estate prices
coupled with a more limited financing market,
this is just not the case anymore. However
there are still a lot of opportunities.
For examples bargains abound in the real estate market. You can
purchase property for a fraction of what it cost just a few years
ago. At the same time the prices for rentals remains fairly strong
since many people have lost their houses and now require
rentals.
This does open up some great opportunities for investing. There
also some wonderful deals on foreclosures and short sales.
Property can be purchased for a small fraction of what they once
were. Many of the properties are suitable for rental income or
they can be purchased and then held for the long term.
Financing rates remain at historic lows so the carrying costs for
long term investments are quite reasonable. The banks and
lending institutions are much more stringent when it comes to the
deal. But this is for the investors benefit as well since it protects
both parties.
It is safe to say that real estate prices will eventually firm up and
increase over time. This means that good real estate investing
will not only result in strong rental income but they can generate
capital gains when held for the long term.
