Knowing the REAL Numbers

3 Easy Steps for Buying Profitable Properties

Just like buying a home for themselves, there is a full spectrum of reasons investors may have for buying a specific rental property. Some will buy strictly for the rental income, some will strategically buy into a neighborhood because of an expectation of appreciation, some need the tax savings and others are simply buying for the long term equity gains.

If you are interested in real estate investing, the following three steps are going to be fundamental in choosing a profitable property, as well as making it a heck of a lot easier!

• You’re not ready to start moving forward until you’ve established where you want to end. Know where you are going in advance. Set clear goals and expectations of what you want to gain from your properties.
• Finding an agent who knows your area and understands property investments is crucial! In addition, regardless of your reason(s), it is essential that the agent buying for you understands your specific short and long-term goals. Only then can they help you discern the pros and cons of individual properties.
• Do the research and project ahead. In the ever changing world of real estate there may not be any guarantees but there are many ways to ensure you’re making the right decision. If real estate investing is new to you, don’t just jump into the deep end—find someone who can help educate and guide you into the right investment.
