Real Estate Benefits
Generally speaking traditional investments include stocks, bonds, certificates of deposit, mutual funds, commodities and real estate. The investment opportunities in real estate include both residential and commercial real estate.
Different investments have their own advantages and disadvantages. The advantages of investing in real estate, include high returns, leverage, tax benefits and personal control over capital invested.
Types of Property
There are four broad types of income-producing real estate: offices, retail, industrial and leased residential. There are many other less common types as well, such as hotels, mini-storage, parking lots and seniors care housing.
Non-income-producing investments, such as houses, vacation properties or vacant commercial buildings, are as sound as income-producing investments. Unlike income producing real estate if you invest equity in a non-income producing property you will not receive any rent, all of your return will be through capital appreciation. The key distinction in these investments is that they are either income producing or non-income producing.
Further Distinctions
Each type of real estate has a different set of drivers influencing its performance. Distinctions among real estate investments may further involve investment strategies and location.
