One of the websites most recent guides focuses on rental property as an investment and gives some good advice to those who have been thinking about getting into real estate investing.
The article says: “The goal of investing in rental property is to earn a profit from the rent you charge to tenants. However, depending on the characteristics of the property, the market conditions at the time and the specifics of your situation, investing in rental property may or may not be a lucrative choice. That being said, is rental property a good investment in TODAY’s market? Here are some factors to consider…”
The article goes on to explain the importance of current real estate market conditions when it comes to deciding whether or not now is the best time to invest in rental property. Loan Love says: “According to housing market experts, now is one of the best times to invest in a rental property if you have the cash. Housing prices have dropped, making home and apartment purchases much more affordable for investors. In addition, mortgage interest rates are at an all-time low, so it’s possible to make a handsome profit on a rental even if you need to finance it with a mortgage. The rental market is also ripe for investors. Rental rates continue to increase in virtually every major metropolitan area. Coupled with the affordable housing prices and the low cost of borrowing, investors who purchase rental units now are likely to have a healthy earning potential.”
The guide also explains that not every investment property will offer the same amount of profit. For example, a property in a low-income location may not bring in as much rent money as a similar property located in a higher income area. Some other property characteristics that potential investors should look at are:
- Price
- Renovation required
- Maintenance
- Location
- Vacancy issues
The article explains a bit more about each of these points and why they are important. To conclude, the article states: “Before you make a final decision, do plenty of research. Sit down and look over your options carefully. Estimate how much the investment will cost you and how much you are likely to earn. If you believe the investment will bring in enough money to make it worthwhile, go for it! On the other hand, if you think the purchase is too expensive or the profit isn’t high enough, look for some other ways to invest your money.”
