Real Estate Investing is Still the Best Investment ... And Way Better Than The Stock Market If Real Estate Investing is still the best investment, then why are people still investing in the stock market or other investments. I think there are a number of reasons: 1) real estate investing is too much work; 2) people don`t want to take responsibility for their investments; 3) real estate investing is boring. First of all, why is Real Estate Investing still the best investment? 1. Appreciation Suppose you purchase an investment property for $200,000. Let’s say you put $40,000 as a down payment and finance the rest. Over the next year your property grows in value at a rate of 5% (in some areas it's more and in some areas it's less). This means your property is now worth $210,000. Your Return on Investment (ROI) for your $40,000 is $10,000 or 25% … in just 1 year. But that's boring isn't it? What if you paid less and your appreciation was more? 2. Monthly Income But remember, this is an income property that you are renting out to make money. So assume your monthly expenses, which includes your mortgage, insurance, taxes, maintenance, management, vacancies, etc. are approximately $1,300. And let's assume you can rent this property for $1,500. That's a cash flow of $200 a month or $2,400 a year. And the good news is that when times are tough in a bad economy, more people are renting so your rental income is even more secure. 3. Principal Pay Down You are also paying off your mortgage during that time. At today’s interest rates, you might earn another $4,000 of equity because of your principal pay down. Total profit on this one $40,000 investment is: $10,000 Appreciation $ 2,400 Monthly Cash Flow $ 4,000 Principal Pay Down $16,400 Total That’s a return of 41% and that's only in the first year.

1. Appreciation

Suppose you purchase an investment property for $200,000. Let’s say you put $40,000 as a down payment

and finance the rest. Over the next year your property grows in value at a rate of 5% (in some areas it's more and in some areas it's less). This means your property is now

worth $210,000. Your Return on Investment (ROI) for your $40,000 is $10,000 or 25% … in just 1 year.

Take Control of your Investments

There are a lot of people getting rich in Real Estate Investing because they

know how to deal with real estate. You don't have to do everything yourself.

When was the last time you made good consistent returns on your stock market investments? Or what kind of

returns are you getting on your mutual funds? What kind of control do you

have with these investments?

With your stock investments you have absolutely no control, other than get in and get out. You can't influence how well your investment performs. You

can't influence changes in the company you are investing in or the demand for their product or service.

In Real Estate Investing there are lots of ways to improve the value of your

investment so that it appreciates more and so that it rents faster and for a

higher rent. You are in control.
