Property Investment: The Basic Principals

By Cody Scholberg

Regardless if you are new to property investment ventures, or you?re a veteran to the affair; one thing is apparent, you cannot forget to refer to the basic rules of investing in real estate investment properties.

There are many various approaches to increase the profitability of your real estate portfolio. The portfolio can be a simple one consisting of only one type of real estate or it can be diverse to include rental homes, office space, retail properties, single-family homes, or industrial locations. You may also keep the properties as rentals for long-term income or flip the properties to increase your wealth. You can also invest in foreclosure properties to sell at a profit when the market allows for the increased values. Whatever you decide to do to increase your portfolio, you will continuously use the basic rules of real estate investing.

When you want to make money on real estate, the best method is to buy and hold onto the property. Try buying in bulk with the type of real estate you decide to use and allow the property to appreciate. Real estate is generally a long-term investment so avoid thinking it is will make you rich quickly.

Purchase properties that have a good cash flow for income. The property needs to have renters to provide a good cash flow so invest in properties that people want or need. The long-term goal is a positive cash flow from all the properties.

The ever used catch phase "location, location, location" is actually the key to your success. Purchasing land between two large buildings and placing a restaurant between them will not net you enough money to stay alive in the investment world. Good clear viewed land is the best choice, as people will be able to "see" and "smell" your business. Nothing brings in customers better than a good old burger on the grill with a side of onion rings!

Only buy real estate from motivated sellers. When the seller wants to get rid of the property, you can get a great deal on the real estate. The more motivated the seller the higher chances are you will get a bargain on the price. This means you will realize a profit in a shorter period of time when you purchase the real estate at a lower price, which is what generally happens with eager sellers.

Using other people?s money for your investment is a great thing to do. Try obtaining some information from banks; inquire about what they look for in order to get yourself approved for a loan.

When you use all of these basic rules for investing, you will create a large profitable portfolio and gain some financial freedom. - 23211
