3 Reasons to Invest in Real Estate

Are you looking to invest in real estate? 

Let's talk about the three reasons why you should invest in real estate.

Reason #1: Mortgage Pay-down. With every passing month, the mortgage principal is paid down and your equity position increases.

Reason #2: Appreciation. Over the long term, real estate prices increase in value. Real estate prices over the long term do appreciate. Yes, there are periods when there is a correction or a recession, but if you look at real estate from a long term perspective, the prices appreciate over time.

Reason #3: Cash Flow. At the end of the month after all expenses are paid, such as mortgage, insurance and property tax, there is a surplus left for the real estate investor. Now each real estate investor has to calculate how much down-payment they want to put down into the investment property, versus how much cash flow is left at the end of the month.
