- Ability to Leverage - You can buy real estate with as little as 3% down - try that with stocks.
- Tax Deductions - Many investment property expenses are tax deductible
- Depreciation - Investment property depreciates on schedule with the IRS, reducing your taxes
- Diversity - Residential, commercial, industrial, land, REITs, TurnKey Properties, etc. An option for every market and every appetite.
- Tangability - Real estate is real, you can fix it, modify it, improve it, rebuild it.
- Stability / Predictability - Real estate market is slow-moving compared to many other investments.
- Forced Retirement Account - The mortgage must be paid (luckily your tenants are giving you the money)!
These are just a few of the reasons why I and many other investors prefer real estate to other types of investments. Next time we'll set goals to help you decide what type of real estate investing is best for you.
