Why Real Estate is the GREATEST Asset Class to Invest in

March 7, 2022

 

On today’s episode of the LearnLikeaCPA podcast, we talked about why real estate is the GREATEST asset class to invest in - here’s why!

 

  1. Real estate is an imperfect market - meaning you can get a deal (unlike the stock market). This means you can capture equity at the buy.
  2. CASH FLOW!!! Cash flow = freedom.
  3. As you hold onto a property, it’ll go up in value (typically around 3% per year).
  4. When you invest in stocks, you’re only getting returns on the money you put in. By leveraging real estate, you might only have to put in $50,000, while the property’s value might be $250,000. And while you only put down 20%, you’re reaping the returns on that whole $250,000.
  5. As you hold onto a property, your tenants/guests are effectively paying down the principle for you through their rent payments.
  6. Real estate is an inflation hedge. If you borrow at 3% interest, and inflation is running at 7%, you’re capturing that 4% difference.
  7. TAX BENEFITS!!! There are too many benefits to even begin to list them here - but we talk about several of them in today’s episode.
