Today, let’s talk about the three ways you can make money by investing in real estate:
1. Cash flow. This is the money over and above your mortgage, your taxes, your insurance, and other expenses associated with the property. When we find a property that you’re interested in, we can run a quick budget with you to make sure that you’re including all the things that you need to understand happen on a monthly basis—in order to pay X, you have to make Y amount. The point is that we want to get you on the positive side of that number.
2. Appreciation. Appreciation occurs when you buy a home for a certain price and, each year, you see a certain percentage of increase in that property’s value. This can happen through the improvements that you make or just though the normal market appreciation.
