SimpleWays to Invest in Real Estate Here's how — from buying rental property to REITs and more 5

1. Rental Properties Owning rental properties can be a great opportunity for individuals who have do-it- yourself (DIY) renovation skills and the patience to manage tenants. However, this strategy does require substantial capital to finance upfront maintenance costs and to cover vacant months.

Buying and owning real estate is an investment strategy that can be both

satisfying and lucrative. Unlike stock and bond investors, prospective real estate owners can use leverage to buy a property by paying a portion of the total cost upfront, then paying off the balance, plus interest, over time. Though a traditional mortgage generally requires a 20% to 25% down payment, in some cases, a 5% down payment is all it takes to purchase an entire property. This ability to control the asset the moment papers are signed emboldens both real estate flippers and landlords, who can, in turn, take out second mortgages on their homes in order to make down payments on additional properties. Here are five key ways investors can make money on real estate.

Pros

Provides regular income and properties can appreciate Maximizes capital through leverage Many tax-deductible associated expenses

Cons

Managing tenants can be tedious Potentially damage property from tenants Reduced income from potential vacancies According to U.S. Census Bureau >Page i Page ii Page iii Page iv Page 1 Page 2 Page 3 Page 4 Page 5 Page 6 Page 7 Page 8 Page 9 Page 10 Page 11 Page 12 Page 13 Page 14 Page 15 Page 16 Page 17 Page 18 Page 19 Page 20 Page 21 Page 22 Page 23 Page 24 Page 25 Page 26
