HOW NOT TO INVEST IN REAL ESTATE

 


The same way there are wrong ways of investing in other business sectors, is the exact same way within real estate, and it all starts when an investor lacks the very basic knowledge and understanding behind the investment broker to investment and profitability correlations. It’s quite simple, as an investor before putting money into any kind of business, you need to understand that an investment is the act putting money, asset, time or effort into something, in this case a business, and doing so in expectation of a sort of profit, gratification or any other kind of satisfaction, also one need to understand that an investment broker is a firm or person who is firstly meant to be more knowledgeable about the business than you are, and secondly monitor the affairs of your money, asset, time and effort in that business.

So two things you must know and understand properly are the;

1.     Type of returns you are expecting from such a business and

2.    Capability of your investment broker in that business.

Having a bulk load of money and just buying every property that is available at a price that seems reasonable to you is a reckless and capricious way to invest, there are dangers that come with such an investment strategy, part of which is the risk of a complete inability to monitor and manage the affairs of such investment, and an even greater risk of ending up in the hands of a supposed broker that not only short changes you, but also secretly embezzles most of the returns, while lying to the moon about the affairs of your investments, and this will be because of the complete lack of doing due diligence on your business expectations  and broker capability.

Running a quick interview for an investment broker to better understand their expertise, capabilities and integrity varies from individual to individual, so we do not need to go into that, as long as it is understood that it must be done well using whatever method one see fit. But we can still look at the types of returns one is trying to build with ones’ investment, as in real estate, there are basically three ways to go, the first is investing to have a fixed income, be it annually or bi annually, the second is investing to get an unfixed but lump sum amount of money from a 2-5year agreement, this lump sum amount usually ranges from a 200% ROI and above, which can come within 2 years of investment and above, depending on viability, the third and final is if one is trying to build a real estate empire with ones’ investment, this is for those going into it for the long haul.
