Feared Myths About Investing in Real Estate
The first is you need at least $100,000 capital to start a real estate business. This is purely a myth. What is true though is that there are branches this industry that will require more than that as capital. Development, for example, probably requires hundreds of thousands of dollars because you will build new houses. However, there are investing methods that are not capital-intensive. One good example is wholesaling houses. In this business, you can invest real estate for as little as $10. That’s because you will not need to buy properties in this business. You will only place houses under a contract signed by you and the home owner. You will then sell or “assign” the contract to a buyer. You get a fee for doing this. Another example is rehabbing houses. In this business, you will need to buy a property so you can improve it before selling it for a profit. However, the money doesn’t have to come from your wallet. You can find hard money lenders across the nation today who are willing to finance such venture. This business pays a lot so loan interest is unlikely a problem. Another feared myth by those who are reluctant to invest real estate is turnaround time of investments. It is true that real estate appreciates significantly in a matter of years. A lot of investors buy properties they keep for years before selling them for a profit. This method is known as the buy and keep, a long-term method of investing in real estate. Investing in real estate, however, doesn’t have to take years. There are methods of doing it that will only take weeks or months. Some methods are completed in just days or even hours. These short-term ventures, in fact, are hot in the market right now. They yield good returns and are picking up popularity because of TV shows about them. Rehabbing, for instance, is the subject of reality TV shows “Flip this House” and “Flip that House.” There are still many feared myths in the industry.
