The Best 3 Ways to Become a Real Estate Investor

You can easily become a real estate investor with one of these three strategies.

The thought of investing in real estate can be overwhelming, but its actually a surprisingly simple process. Today Ill be breaking down the three primary ways you can begin investing:

1. Flipping: This is when you buy a home, fix it up, and sell it for a profit. The key to making this profitable is to buy the home at a good price. Keep in mind that the longer you keep the home, the more money you are losing. So, your goal is to remodel it and sell it as quickly as possible.

With an owner finance, you buy a home with the intention of selling to someone who doesnt qualify for a regular mortgage

2. Renting: This involves buying a home and then renting it out. Youll need to figure out how much youll rent it for and how much expenses like vacancies, repairs, and maintenance will cost. You should have at least 200 to 300 of profit coming in each month. A rental is a long-term investment, and youll make the most money in the future when you sell it for a higher price or leverage it to buy a multi-family property. Also, pay attention to nearby schools, tax rates, and the areas rental history.

3. Owner finances: Not many people know about this approach, but I believe it offers the best of both worlds. With an owner finance, you buy a home with the intention of selling to someone who doesnt qualify for a regular mortgage; the price and interest rates are typically higher, but it costs about as much as it would to rent a home anyway. Essentially, buyers get to own a house and pay the same as they would renting. Even better, you get monthly payments without being responsible for any repairs.
